Power went down twice today Once was just a flicker In fact in terms of laughter I would call that one a snicker The second time we lost it all The house went cold and dark So, I got the dogs both on a leash And I took them to the park Five hours passed before they came And said "The power's back" It was just then I started to Have an I.T heart attack I'm not one for computers The phone, or tablet too They had gone down with the internet And I knew not what to do Each electronic item That resides inside this place Defaults to needing passwords And well, me...I'm so off base I couldn't watch the tv The computer screen just stared It kept asking for a password and I admit, I was a bit scared I didn't phone my spouse to tell him That I didn't have a clue I'd wait for my young daughter She'd know just what to do In our house things are different We never phone up a help line Our kids reset the passwords And our kids are eight and nine They'll fix what I can't restart They'll get me back on the tv And the best things with this I.T team Is that all their help is free.

Waiting for my I.T team
Power went down twice today Once was just a flicker In fact in terms of laughter I would call that one a snicker The second time we lost it all The house went cold and dark So, I got the dogs both on a leash And I took them to the park Five hours passed before they came And said "The power's back" It was just then I started to Have an I.T heart attack I'm not one for computers The phone, or tablet too They had gone down with the internet And I knew not what to do Each electronic item That resides inside this place Defaults to needing passwords And well, me...I'm so off base I couldn't watch the tv The computer screen just stared It kept asking for a password and I admit, I was a bit scared I didn't phone my spouse to tell him That I didn't have a clue I'd wait for my young daughter She'd know just what to do In our house things are different We never phone up a help line Our kids reset the passwords And our kids are eight and nine They'll fix what I can't restart They'll get me back on the tv And the best things with this I.T team Is that all their help is free.
