ODE TO MY COMPUTER a/k/a HP

I booted you up this morning and what did I see
You sent me a message, I thought how could this be
You told me Smart Failure is predicted on your hard disk
You said failure may be imminent, I said tsk tsk

I do want to thank you for sending me this warning
I have been backing up and saving my work all this morning
I must say though, I’m not ready to give in
How can I let you, a lowly computer, win?

Your PC should be something you can rely on, like a friend
But if it is an HP, it might be your enemy before the end
My experience with you has been nothing but a chore
The problems, the headaches, oh they are such a bore

Don’t you know that I spent good money on you
Why would you send me such a message to make me feel blue
You know I had another one, a brand new one, just like you
And he sent me the same message, oh yes it is true

I called the manufacturer when this happened before
They said, no you can’t take it back to the store
Send it in to us and we will do what we can
I did, they did, and from this they had a plan

They said, we can’t fix it, but we will send out another
So here you came, and you are just like your brother
You both were named after your daddy weren’t you
Your last name is Packard, and your first name,
in short, is Hew

What I don’t seem to get or better yet, understand
You keep saying it is “Smart Failure,” was this planned?
Well, It doesn’t seem very smart, no not to me
Or maybe it is, on your part, wait, now maybe I see

If this is a game, maybe to get all my money
Cause the repair bill will be high, oh I got news for you honey
Not one dime will your daddy get, you know the great “HP”
Before I’ll do that, into the trash can you will be

I’m sending out a message to all that I know
Don’t be tricked into thinking of spending your dough
This I will say, NEVER again will I buy anything HP might sell
Next time Dude, I’ll be getting me a DELL
