Are You Up to Date?

Arc You Up to Date?
Do you load it at the n.uzzle
When you want a shot, or two:
Do you wind it with a watch key
Like your father used to do?
How'd you like to hop a hoIs.
Like you did long years agos
Don't an auto beat an OK cart?
Well rather reckon so.
Do you argue that an hourglass
Beats Waltham all to smash:
Do you use the same old system
keepin' books and countin' cash:
Do you trim goose quill neatly
When you want the ink to flow
Don't you think there's been i'm
prcvement
In the last decade or so?
Tell us are you advertising
In the same old foolish way
That your grandad did before
you
And persist. cit doesn't pay:
Think the whole wo IL knows
your address?
"Cause it hasn't changed in
years.?
Wouldn't the pathos of such
logic
Drive billy goat 10 tears?
Just card is all yol caro- for?
Hidden, lonesome and unread.
Like the sign upon tie tomb
Telling folks that you are dead
Wake up, an l take tonic,
Bunch your wits and make a
