Computer Games

You stood up just after dinner

Headed straight up to the door

You looked back, bold like a winner

Said "darling i don't need you no more"

For 20 years i've been your woman,

Your wife, sister, mother and love

Never once you really talked to me

Your mind was always high up above

Since you've gone away

I've got a million games to play

I've got your 80 megabytes (*) full of

Computer games

Space invaders, sargon, crystal quest,

I've got no break, i've got no rest

I spend my days on your

Computer games

You bought me a brand new toaster,

An iron and a washing machine

(that was my birthday)

You gave me a vacuum cleaner for

Christmas or for easter

But you never gave your heart

All your life you've been locked up in your

Work, you never came see the sun

Every night with your computer,

I still wonder if you were really a man

Since you've gone away......

Sold the hoover and the toaster

The iron and the washing-machine

I bought myself a super-booster

Now i'm the fasted mouse on the scene.

I got rid of all your rubbish

Of all your mathematical tapes

I put your differential equations in the trash-bin

I bought me a thousand fancy new games.

Since you've gone away......
