Why You Should Be Thankful for Y2K

Oh, hi there
I didn't see you come in
Haven't seen ya in a while
How have things been?
Well, that's good
I'm glad you had a nice day
I'm sorry your connection is bad
I really hope you can stay
Ya know....
You really should consider buying a new computer
Your old one is getting old and stale
Say, that reminds me....
I just heard 'bout this awesome sale
You can get a
super-spiffy-ultra-nifty
fully loaded techno bloated
computer for ultra cheap
It has supersonic
stereophonic speakers that go
boom, crash, boink and beep
Ya can get it for 50 bucks,
not a penny more
at Honest Harry's Computer Store
Oh no, oh dear
I never asked you how you were, I fear
Forgive me, my apologies
How's your life, your job, your family
Well... enough about you
Let's talk about me
I wanna tell you the story of my life
About my ex-boyfriend's ex-wife
I'm sad because wall street crashed
I have bad dandruff and an itchy rash
My car is shiny, I got it waxed
My first cousin just sent me a nasty fax
The gov't is after me, I didn't pay my income tax
I ate too much and now I feel fat
I just flossed the teeth of my neigbor's cat
Would you like to see a pic of my niece?
My great aunt just died of a rare tropical disease
No one likes me, they all think I'm boring
I start talking, and they start snoring
I went to the doctor today (he's related to my first cousin,
twice removed, who cheated my dear Uncle Ned out of his pay, by
the way)
Wanna hear what he had to say?
Oh, dear, I think you got bumped
and I didn't get a chance to tell ya about the time
I had my stomach pumped....
Oh, well, tomorrow's another day
M aybe then you'll get to have a longer stay
I know ya wanna hear what I have to say
You didn't leave just to get away
