My New HP

You know how our each member of our family loves to take pictures with a digital camera. I’m sure you would agree that we are certainly deserving to win a contest and get a new HP digital camera and photoprinter, right?

Well, let’s see if the judges think so.

Here’s my entry for the contest:

It’s a song to be sung the week after Christmas while school is still out.

My New HP

(Sung to the Tune of “Money for Nothing” by Dire Straits)

I want my, I want my new HP
I want my, I want my new HP


Now look at them yo-yo's, that's the way they do it
Ten kids at home and from school they’re free
They ain't workin', that's the way they do it
Sittin on their butts as they watch TV
Now they ain't workin', that's the way they do it
Lemme tell ya, them guys ain't dumb
They are doing nothing but working the remote
Getting a little blister on each thumb

{Refrain}
We got a house to clean from Christmas wrappings
Gonna have to take down the wreaths and trees
We got meals to cook and dishes to wash up
But all they’re doing is watching those dumb TVs

The college student thinks he deserves a break after finals
The youngest needs time to play
The middle ones can’t bear to lift a finger
They act as if they were millionaires

We got a house to clean from Christmas wrappings
Gonna have to take down the wreaths and trees
We got meals to cook and dishes to wash up
But all they’re doing is watching those dumb TVs

I know that I have found the perfect answer
I need to spark creativity
Look at that mama, she bought hers an HP camera
Man we sure need one
Her kids are out there taking lots of pictures
Acting like friends instead of fighting siblings
Oh, she’s got it working that's the way you do it
Get your kids busy with a new HP

We got a house to clean from Christmas wrappings
Gonna have to take down the wreaths and trees
We got meals to cook and dishes to wash up
But all they’re doing is watching those dumb TVs

Now that ain't workin' that's the way you do it
You keep your kids busy with a new HP
That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
You keep your kids busy with a new HP

You keep your kids busy with a new HP

I want my, I want my, I want my new HP
{Repeat, ad lib to fade}
