I Bought This Stuff When It Was New
Parody of "I Hate Myself For Loving You" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts
I am a huge "Weird Al" fan, so naturally I do parodies. I have written more than 150 of them and just started to record some. My topics cover everything from fo
Story behind the song
Ah technology, coming out with the next greatest thing every two weeks.
Lyrics
Midnight, I’m in line, it’s a zoo!
Outside the Best Buy to get something brand new
It looks amazing, this will make me so cool!
Hey man, Apple’s back…they're drawin’ in crowds
Looks really sleek, plenty features abound
Gave them all my dollars, now I’m jumpin’ up and down
Turned on the news, frown at what they say
That just this fall, something new will come our way
I bought this stuff when it was new
Version 3 replacing Version 2
I’d sell it back, but “No refunds for you!”
Oh man, I bought this stuff when it was new
Oh great, out of date, now I’m screwed
New one has features that aren’t on Version 2
They’ll think I’m a loser if I don’t preorder soon
Oh man, new iPad – Version 5!
Skipped over 4, this one was announced last night
Threw this old one away cause they’ll probably skip to 9!
And now this new pile of shiny chrome
Was out of date by the time I brought it home
I bought this stuff when it was new
Now the screen’s like an Etch-a-Sketch tool
My friends all scoff, say “This 8-track’s for you”
But, hey, I bought this stuff when it was new
Turned on the news and feared what they’d say
“Four new came out since what you bought yesterday”
I bought this stuff when it was new
“Version 3 is like cave paintings, dude!”
I should give up, I don’t know what to do
Because I bought this stuff when it was new
I bought this stuff when it was new
Now 3-D, mines not even at two
I’m just in shock, out of so much cash too!
Because I bought this stuff when it was new!
I bought this stuff when it was new
I hate myself for buying new
I bought this stuff when it was new
I hate myself...
I bought this stuff when it was new!
