You can't always bring what you want: BYOD
Rambling Kid Realitsm has been writing and singing folk songs since the Seventies. As he gets older the realisation is dawning that his own special talent is not one that resonates with the public in such as way as to set him up for his retirement. With the Rolling Stones recently celebrating their 50th anniversary with an appearance at the Glastonbury festival - the one place that Rambling Kid has always craved a centre-stage appearance - Rambling Kid Realitsm has re-branded himself as Kid-R, and is working on his new single You Can't Always Bring What You Want. The IT Skeptic has obtained a leaked release of the early studio tapes, and whilst the soundtrack is not something I'd subject my readers to, the lyrics are interesting:
- I saw her today down in Reception
An iPhone 5 in her hand
I knew she was gonna need a connection
At her feet was a WiFi man
You can't always bring what you want
You can't always bring what you want
You can't always bring what you want
But if you try sometimes well you might find
You get what you need
I went down to the vendor demonstration
To give my fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't they'll all buy iPad 2s"
Shock and outrage in the folk music community when Rambling Kid Realitsm goes electric
You can't always bring what you want
You can't always bring what you want
You can't always bring what you want
But if you try sometimes well you just might find
You get what you need
I went down to the Apple-store
To get your procurement filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Ballmer
And man, did he look pretty ill
He decided that he would sell a Surface
My favorite flavor, business read(-y)
I sung my song to Mr. Ballmer
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
I said to him
You can't always sell what you want
You can't always sell what you want
You can't always sell what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
They get what they need
I saw her today down at Reception
In her Glass was a bleeding security plan
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by the compromised LAN
You can't always say what you want
You can't always say what you want
You can't always say what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
They'll get what you need
maybe one day baby! oooooh....
so tell them now:
You can't always bring what you want
You can't always have what you want
You can't always do what you want
But if we try sometimes you just might find
We just might bind
And you get what we need
You should hear the B-side: AQUELOS by Jethro Realitsm
