monitor blues

 ©1999 Raine Wynd/Raine Wynd; bridge and chorus by Don Ashbaugh

Oh, I got me a monitor
It's been bright and clear
For nearly two years now
But it's fading fast and turning black
Gave me a case of them ol' monitor blues.

So I called tech support
Got me an idiot the first time
Who screwed up my PC
And I nearly lost my cool
Oh, I got a case of them ol' support blues.

Bridge: So you don'tcha dare think
About dealin' with those fools;
Don't write -- don't waste your ink:
They're just working without tools!

So I hung up and tried again
And Scott with the sexy voice
Really turned me on...
To the source of the problem that is
Oh, I got me a case of them ol'... blues

Chorus: Now I got a clear head --
Know what I'm talking about;
Better believe what I said --
You shouldn't given have a doubt:
These "support" guys ain't got no clues,
I just came down with the "monitor blues"....
No, I ain't got no colds or flus,
I ain't got nothin' but the "monitor blues!"

Maybe next weekend I'll have it all fixed
A brand new monitor shipped UPS
Guess I'll have to clean off my desk
Maybe find that Muse who's been tryin'
To give me a case of them ol' monitor blues.

Chorus
