What was life like before the computer?

Life Before the Computer

An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity
A keyboard was a piano!

Memory was something that you lost with age
A CD was a bank account
And if you had a 3 1/2 inch floppy
You hoped nobody found out!

Compress was something you did to garbage
Not something you did to a file
And if you unzipped anything in public
You'd be in jail for a while!

Log on was adding wood to a fire
Hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived
And a backup happened to your commode!

Cut - you did with a pocket knife
Paste you did with glue
A web was a spider's home
And a virus was the flu!

I guess I'll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head
I hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash
But when it happens they wish they were dead!

"Snow" by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Snow by Red Hot Chili Peppers 


“Snow” by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Come to decide that the things that I tried
Were in my life just to get high on
When I sit alone come get a little known
But I more than myself this time
Step from the road to the sea to the sky
And I do believe it, we rely on
When I lay it on come get to play it on
All my to sacrifice
(Hey oh), listen I say, (oh...)
I got your (hey oh), now listen what I say, (oh...)
When I that I really can't go
To the well once time to decide on
When it's killing me, when will I really see
All I to look inside
Come to believe that I better not leave
Before I get my to ride
When it's killing me, what do I really need
All I need to look inside
(Hey oh), listen what I say, (oh...)
Come back and (hey oh), look at what I say, (oh...)
The more I see, the less I know
The more I to let it go
(Hey oh, whoa...)

Deep beneath the cover of perfect wonder
Where it's so as snow
divided by a so undecided
And there's nowhere to go
In the cover of another perfect wonder
And it's so white as snow
Running to the field where all my tracks will be concealed
And there's nowhere to go
...
When to descend to amend for a friend
All the channels that have down
Now you bring it up, I'm gonna ring it up
Just to you sing it out
from the to the sea to the sky
And I do believe what we rely on
When I lay it on, come get to play it on
All my life to sacrifice
(Hey oh), I say, (oh...)
I got (hey oh), listen what I say, (oh...)
The more I see, the I know
The more I to let it go
(Hey oh, whoa...)

Deep beneath the of another wonder
Where it's so as snow
Privately divided by a world so undecided
And there's to go
In between the cover of another perfect wonder
Where it's so as snow
Running the field all my tracks will be concealed
And there's nowhere to go
I said... (hey, hey yeah, oh yeah...)
Tell my love now
(Hey, hey yeah, oh yeah...)

Alanis Morissette - Hand In My Pocket

 


  I'm broke but I'm     I'm poor 
 but I'm        I'm short but I'm            (opposite of sad) (opposite of unkind) (opposite of sick), yeah


I'm high but I'm grounded I'm sane but 

I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm      (opposite of hopeless) baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine fine fine Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one isWhat is she doing with her other hand?
I feel       (opposite of sober) but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm      (opposite of overpaid)
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone

I'm __________(opposite of to be right) and I'm sorry baby

What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one isWhat is she doing with her other hand? Flicking                     
What it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is
 What is she doing with her other hand?

I'm            /frɪː/ but I'm focused
I'm           /grɪːn/ but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm            /frendlɪ/ baby
I'm sad but I'm            /la:fɪŋ/
I'm                /breɪv/ but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one isWhat is she doing with her other hand?
What it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything's just fine fine fine I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one isWhat is she doing with her other hand? Hailing
