What the world mourns now is Jobs, Steve Jobs,
He’s the kind of man that I wish, my father was.
What the world needs now is jobs, sweet jobs,
They’re the only things that there are too little of.
What the world mourns now is Jobs, Steve Jobs,
He’s the kind of man that I wish God made more of.
What the world needs now is jobs, sweet jobs,
No not just for some, but for everyone.
Lord, we don’t need another downturn,
There’s recession and heartache enough to climb,
There are oceans and red tape enough to cross
Enough to last, till the end of time.
What the world needs now is jobs, sweet jobs,
No not just for some, but for everyone.
What the world lost now is Jobs, Steve Jobs
He’s the kind of man that I wish, God made more of.
And this man, named Jobs, whose life brought jobs
Wasn’t lost to some. He’s a loss for every, every
everyone.

Love your lyrics. Glad you're back.
Well done. Very well done. As always.
It is such a pleasure to read your work again.
We could use some more of Love, sweet Love, also...
I 've missed you around here, hope your new gig is just great.
The man himself?
Interesting; troubling (seems to me so far, any way). I've read a bit about him from time to time; will be interested to see what ?"you"? -- more 'techies' than I -- have to say in further exchanges. As to the man himself ... may he R.I.P, o.k? I mean -- sheesh, the man just died, right? Do we all have to "jump on him" now in order to get OS coverage?
Sign me "temporarily bad mood but I'll get over it as quick as I can ;-)"

And it's very nice to see you back in these parts. Few people have the knack for scandalous repartee that you do. ;)
Hey, good to see you 'round!
