Ode to the crackberry

After a recent plane trip, I turned on my Crackberry only to find 15 messages that were sent during the duration of the flight. Since apparently my Crackberry missed me so much, I came up with this little diddy to pay homage to it. I think this song rivals the C-A-S-E lyrics, but the only ones who are really going to get this are my fellow FCEs... or my friends who have witnessed the sad, unrelenting grip that this Crackberry has on me. (Hey - I blame the work husband...)

Leavin' on a Jet Plane: Ode to the Crackberry

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
They're going to shut the airplane door
Hate to turn you off and say goodbye
My heart is breaking, it's just not fair
Flight attendant's waiting, she gives me a stare
My thumbs are now so lonesome I could cry

So buzz me and blink for me
Tell me texts will wait for me
I'll holster you and never let you go

'Cuz I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when you'll turn on again
Oh babe, I hate to go

There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I dropped you to the ground
I tell you now, it doesn't mean a thing
Every call I make, I think of you
Every text I type, I type for you
I pick you up when you don't even ring

So buzz me and blink for me
Tell me texts will wait for me
I'll holster you and never let you go

'Cuz I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when you'll turn on again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, let me check you
Then darken your screen and we'll be on our way
Dream about the days that rock
When I'll keep you on around the clock
About the time I won't have to say

So buzz me and blink for me
Tell me texts will wait for me
I'll holster you and never let you go

'Cuz I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when you'll turn on again
Oh babe, I hate to go...
