Rata Tada Tat Tat
Rata Tat......DING
Oh how I love to hear you sing!
More than a five piece crash and twang
Words sometimes like
Leading a herd of hungry cats
At thirty a minute
Two finger typing’s all I need
Touching your keys with an unsteady rhythm
Gives me time to think
How to let others fully appreciate your talent
YES
Together OH what tales we can tell
Rata Tada Tat Tat
Rata Tat......DING
Celebrating life with that bell’s lofty ring
It’s been said that words are power
Soon time others knew and how
You just make sure they hit the paper
And me they leap off the page
Rata Tada Tat Tat
Rata Tat......DING
Oh how I love to make you sing!
Letting those words multiply
Soon to set my fingers walking
In the yellow pages
For a Commodore 64
And when my word processor’s set up
I’ll teach it to print a computerized letter
To the very best publisher in town
