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. >From the SHARE song book.
