Bedford Level Experiment - Unsaved Lyrics

I loved my Timex/Sinclair
But couldn't get it to save or load
Hooked up a cassette recorder to it
Through a rats' nest of cables
Tried everything I could think of
But nothing worked

If I could save and load
I could do so much more
I'd make my dreams

I asked my parents for help but
They knew even less than I did
So they asked friends & family
My aunt said her boyfriend could
So she brought me out to his place
To take a look at it

If I could save and load
I could do so much more
I'd keep my dreams
And build them more

He lived in a trailer surrounded
By Volvos in various states of repair
He tried for a while with no success either
Then he showed me his VIC-20
And some programs that he made
Like a program that calculated pi
But we gave up on the Sinclair

Couldn't get it to save or load
Would have done so much more
I lost my dreams
They are no more

Couldn't get it to save or load
Would have done so much more
I lost my dreams

So I returned the computer today
So I returned that computer today
Had to return it
