My first computer was an eight-bit system running the CP/M operating system on an Intel 8080 processor, in about 1980. The system was some $900. I bought a Whitesmiths C compiler for it for about $300, and it came with the Wordstar text editor.

In addition to the comments here about the lyrics, IMHO it is a one-chord song and boring. Most of Burton Cummings' songs are much more interesting musically, e.g. "Undun."

Sounds like you had better open a diaper factory in your house. Then you wouldn't have to pay the tariff that you are charging yourself.
