I like the song...

   The Broadcast Storm Blues

   Somethin' slowing my network,
   Tell me what could it be,
   It ain't my magination'
   C I Oâs callin' me.

   Workin' quarter past midnight,
   Restin' my head on wood,
   Gettin' no dinner break and
   Tryin' all that I could

   You see my director done told me,
   that "I got the network's slow blues,
   If I don't get to fixin', 
   then somebody else fills my shoes."
