New Song for Your Friday Enjoyment

A Prepress Tale
to be sung by someone with talent (or rapped with a banjo music loop)


Quark, Indy, postscript, Word doc or Excel
Pdf, rgb, .jpeg, fontless, lo-res hell

ticket wrong, font default, always it?s the same
film jam, crashing rip, designer?s files are lame

printed wrong, folded cut and delivered wrong as well
who will take the fall - it?s never hard to tell

if you?ve ever touched a keyboard, mouse, or anything that?s wired
you?ve probably screwed up something and got a prepress worker fired

Couldn?t possibly get lower approval or higher stress
if I were President and left the country in a mess

someday I?ll clean sewage, flip burgers or chop onions
maybe give rectal exams, test urine or scrape bunions

I dream of something better, God please just let me out!
trying to finish this line while hearing bossman shout!

so may the prepress gods (who of course do not exist)
not keep you in this nightmare job getting punk?d and dissed

- duck

You can never trust a song by a Duck. I bet that's plagiarized. I think the Stones wrote that originally.

Not the Rolling Stones!
I wouldn't steal from those geeks,
give me someone big.

Taco, or the Weather Girls, or that Rico Suave guy. And by the way, that is a haiku Tom.
