What An Easy Life We Lead

Remember the days before computers Seems like they've been around forever Life was simpler or that's how it seemed Methinks today's much simpler however Hard to recall what a hassle it was Making a simple deposit at the bank Had to get there before closing at three Banker's hours were short to be frank What about shopping at the grocery store Needed cash or you were poop outta luck Unless you saw a friend and asked for a loan And he forks over a couple of bucks Now you can order movie tickets online Is there anything more convenient than that No more standing in a long line in the cold Bundled up in a coat, scarf and a hat We can even file our tax returns online We don't even need to mail them anymore No, today is a very much simpler life We can now take daily naps and snore
