Take a Bite

Come on people let's take a bite.
Then be the apple of an eye.
When it updates ,world so screwed.
How an Apple rules the world.

I had a bite one day it came.
An Apple tablet in my hands.
It made me rich and famous.
It left my pocket so abused.

Over a train or in a cab,
You see someone keeps in touch.
Busy roads and dizzy mind,
When will I buy the latest one.

It is somehow aggravating,
To live each day in so much pain.
I trade my old car just to have you,
Then by tomorrow it's no longer new.

iPhone ,iPod ,iPad ,Mac and watch.
Each day I need to work so hard.
To take a bite and have it all.
Then left so gorgeous in empty room.

Haha...ang kulet! It can't be helped...smartphones, etc., do make our lives a little bit easier, right? Just make sure the usage is kept to certain reasonable degree. Let the Joneses have what they want, I keep what I need. Love this write, kabayan! 7. Hugsies!
