The Lyrics

Always make sure your cue cards are legible, people.
I sent you the script that I made all alone
Effort can't describe modestly
The effort I put in to make sure that no
Typos made it onto the screen
Imagine my shock when I lived my greatest fear
When half of each slide came out spelled wrong
Able to forge on 'cause only to me, it's clear
If it faced the audience? Hell's come

So we have a problem, it may seem fine, it's not
A busted teleprompter down the line will spread rot
All words must be typed correctly, I have found
Because otherwise one might look like a clown
Busted teleprompter down the line will spread rot

Don't know who to blame although it ain't me, I'm sure
I triple-checked ev'ry damn screen
So somethin' went wrong, bugs in the motherboard
That destroys any lit'racy
Or maybe the fault is with the one person here
Who was my singular confidant
The one who typed all of my words in 'cause I fear
There's more areas that you've ballsed up

Which has caused my problems? Who needs a good slap-punch?
Screwed up the teleprompter and maybe more, that sucks
I knew all my lines, didn't stumble around
But that's just my style, others might flop right down
Screwed-up teleprompter would screw them back, that sucks

Have this fear that bugs spread far and wide
Could wreck tons of data now
Should be scared since either you fail-typed
Or you let the bugs out

Source of either problem, this just cannot go on
Botched up my teleprompter, my perfect script was slop
If they had been slides to show off all around
Would be the worst time, they'd mock me 'til I'm down
Need that teleprompter to not be total rot

A monster, a monster, I've turned into a monster
A monster, a monster and it keeps getting stronger

Here also is a reminder that the strip above was only a slight exaggeration of what happens when one of those teleprompters goes on the blink:

Huh, link didn't work...ah, Bloom County, a comic strip I've only ever heard the name of. Here's some thanks from the actual author who, in fact, got the joke without needing to understand the reference!
