STAPLE GUN - ( a desk-top equipment awareness song ) 
verses- B, F#,  G  
ska bridge G, C,  D  
VERSE 1
There was a guy called John 
He found a staple gun 
He thought it was a phone 
And now he has no ear 
His family thought he was dumb 
His mum said 'Oh dear John 
that's a bloody staple gun' 
I now fear for your ear 
BRIDGE
VERSE 2
The hospital surgeon said 
she was gonna amputate John's head 
The left side of it that is 
the surgeon's name was Liz 
'Your'e really stupid John 
That's a bloody staple gun 
She cut off poor John's ear 
And now he can't really sort of properly hear
