Silent Tree Music - Song Lyrics 

( Household appliance conspiracy song lyrics )
( THERE'S AN )
APPLIANCE ALLIANCE AGAINST ME
Copyright © 2010 - MickTerry.com

On   YouTube,  performed  LIVE  by  MICK TERRY   (soon!)

My cellphone's screaming mutiny.
Weed whacker's out for blood.
My dishwasher is backing up again.
Computer's on a hunger strike.
My IPod's not so good.
And my printer hasn't worked since don't know when.

    THERE'S AN APPLIANCE ALLIANCE AGAINST ME.
    They're out to make me look some kind of fool.
    THERE'S AN APPLIANCE ALLIANCE AGAINST ME:
    a conspiracy of gadgets and tools.

My DVD will not eject.
My blender's gone insane
and pureed my pajamas and pet frog.
My microwave does TV shows,
while my flat screen nukes my brain.
And my chain saw won't cut pudding, soup or logs.

    CHORUS

    I brought them all together in the middle of the kitchen floor
    on top of piles of paper in case some leaked.
    I brought them all together just to give them the old 'what for'.
    To their credit, they just sat and heard me speak.
   "All right, you guys. Enough is quite enough.
    I don't know what you've planned, but it's the end.
    All right, you guys. But, now the jig is up.
    Remember, I'm the boss and not your friend."

I thought my speech went adm'rably:
had to put them in their place.
But, then they started whistling some old song:
The Bridge over the River Kwai.
Couldn't make the fire escape.
They attacked me without mercy all night long.
