Roger Waters, "Perfect Sense, Part I":

He said Mama Mama
The President's a fool
Why do I have to keep reading
These technical manuals?
And the joint chiefs of staff
And the brokers on Wall Street said
Don't make us laugh
You're a smart kid
Time is linear
Memory is a stranger
History is for fools
Man is a tool in the hands
Of the great God Almighty
And they gave him command
Of a nuclear submarine
And sent him back in search of
The Garden of Eden

I can't think of too many others...what about Elvis Costello's "Every
Day I Write the Book"? U2's "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb"?

Chris

>From Joni Mitchell's "Electricity"
(http://jmdl.com/guitar/tab.cfm?id=145)

The masking tape tangles
It's sticky and black
And the copper
Proud headed Queen Lizzie
Conducts little charges
That don't get charged back
While the technical manual's busy
She's not going to fix it up too easy

I have no idea what that all means, but I like that it
has "technical manual" in it; I'm easy to please...

Any other pop songs that mention tech writer
creations?
