Solar Flares

Damn solar flares made me freak out Swallow my gum and make me choke Up the proverbial creek without a paddle Think I soiled my jockeys, no joke Envisioned I was going to lose all my data Doomsday was hanging over my head My sweetie hid the crowbars and hammers Feared I'd bash my head until dead Turned out to be not quite that serious Lost the Internet for just a couple of hours Happened when I was having some fun Curled up in the corner and cowered But I'm okay now, thank you for asking Though I'll probably never be quite the same Now I back up stuff every twenty-three seconds Modern technology's a scary game
