The Lyrics

Recently I had problems on installing a television card on my PC. The frustration inspired me to write this song.
I have put the card in,
I have tried the search on plug-and-play
I can't do the settings
there has really something gone astray

I can't work this out!
I can't work this out!

What are correct drivers?
Is it NTSC, is it PAL?
How to set the jumpers?
hear now complaining of this gal -

I can't work this out!
I can't work this out!

My patience's very short and there's no use
for swapping the card slots again
I had never thought and this is not too much amuse
that it would be that much a pain

Try to set the channels
- there is nothing on the screen I see
Switch a new antenna
it won't provide just any help to me

I can't work this out
I can't work this out

My patience's very short and there's no use
for swapping the card slots again
I had never thought and this is not too much amuse
that it would be that much a pain

I cannot see the right way
how to get this card to work just fine
Switched off plug and play
and I try the IRQ set 9

I can't work this out!
I can't work this out!
