An application was for employment
A program was a television show
Windows were something you hated to clean,
A keyboard was a piano
A cursor used profanity
Memory was something you lost with age
A CD was a bank account
Compress was something you did to garbage
Log on was adding wood to a fire
A hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived
And a backup happened to your toilet
Cut you did with scissors
Paste you did with glue
A web was a spider's home
And a virus was the flu!!!
