Special thanks to TigerLily for inspiration.
Also, I suppose I have to acknowledge a tad of influence, some teeny weeny, itsy bitsy amount, really - a mere atom of attribution - to the talent that was/is a barlely heard of music group called Queen and their never heard of before B-side song, entitled FAT BOTTOMED GIRLS.

Ah
You gonna type me home tonight
Ah
Down beside that desk lamp light
Ah
You gonna let it all bang out
Font-ball that whirls
You make the writing world go round
Hey!
I was just a skinny grad
Never knew good words from bad
But I could laugh before I had my misery
(huh)
Left alone with big-keyed QWERTY
She was such a Shift Key flirty
Selectric Rose, you made a writer out of me
Hey hey!
I've been typing with my hands
On the internet, across broadband,
I've seen every word processor on the way
(hey)
But their software and their files
Caught a virus after a while
Take me to them Selectric Twos every time
C'mon!
Ah
Won't you type me home tonight?
Ah
Down beside your desk lamp light
Ah
And you give it all you got
Font-ball that whirls
You make the writing world go round
Font-ball that whirls
You make the writing world go round
Hey, listen here!
I got deadlines and dead phones
Fingers heavier than stones
Ain't no WiFi spot in this locality
(I tell you)
Oh, but I still write that caper
Got my twenty-four pound paper
Red IBM, you done made a wordsmith outta me
(now get this)
Oh
(I know)
You gonna type me home tonight
(please)
Oh
Down beside that desk lamp light
Oh
You gonna let it all bang out
Font-ball that whirls
You make the writing world go round
(yeah)
Font-ball that whirls
You make the writing world go round
Live at your desks and write!
Ooh, yeah, oh, yeah
Font-ball that whirls
Font-ball that whirls
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Allright
Write 'em come on
Font-ball that whirls
Yeah, yeah, write
