We think it's nifty, our thirty-eight fifty,
With cartridges, disks, and more!
It's real expensive, with storage galore.
It's so extensive, it takes up a floor.
No files we're staging, no files we're aging.
That's not what we got it for.
We won't deny it, we had to buy it,
to out-do the shop next door.
