50 Ways to Leave Your ‘puter<\/h1>\n

By\u00c2\u00a0Morag Mortimer-Smythe<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you have problems tearing yourself away from your computer? Stay up half the night burning the midnight oil? Completely knackered the following morning?<\/p>\n

Then you may need to practise Simonism. Any Paul Simon song is usually guaranteed to send me to sleep but I find this one from the 70’s gives the best results. Singing this song to yourself 5 minutes before you intend to shut down will soon have you snuggled up in bed in no time.<\/p>\n

50 Ways To Leave Your ‘Puter<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

(Verse)<\/em><\/p>\n

The problem is all inside my head I thought to me<\/p>\n

The answer is easy if I take it logically<\/p>\n

This song helps me in my struggle to be free<\/p>\n

There must be fifty ways to leave your ‘puter<\/p>\n

(Verse)<\/em><\/p>\n

It is really not my habit to intrude<\/p>\n

Furthermore I hope my meaning won’t be lost or misconstrued<\/p>\n

But I’ll repeat myself at the risk of being crude<\/p>\n

There must be fifty ways to leave your ‘puter<\/p>\n

Fifty ways to leave your ‘puter<\/p>\n

(Chorus)<\/em><\/p>\n

You just put down the mouse<\/p>\n

Klaus<\/p>\n

Alt., control, delete<\/p>\n

Pete<\/p>\n

You just pull out the plug<\/p>\n

Doug<\/p>\n

Just get yourself free<\/p>\n

Don’t make a big fuss<\/p>\n

Russ<\/p>\n

You don’t need to install stuff<\/p>\n

Just flick the ‘off’ key<\/p>\n

Lee<\/p>\n

And get yourself free<\/p>\n

(Verse)<\/em><\/p>\n

You know, it grieves me so to see me in such pain<\/p>\n

But in the morning I can reboot up again<\/p>\n

Until then I’ll just repeat this crap refrain<\/p>\n

About the fifty ways<\/p>\n

(Chorus)<\/em><\/p>\n

You just turn off the switch<\/p>\n

Mitch<\/p>\n

Alt., control, delete<\/p>\n

Pete<\/p>\n

Don’t be a big girl<\/p>\n

Earl<\/p>\n

Just get yourself free<\/p>\n

No need for a fuss<\/p>\n

Russ<\/p>\n

You don’t need to install stuff<\/p>\n

Just flick the off key<\/p>\n

Lee<\/p>\n

And get yourself free<\/p>\n
