The DAISY Anthem
By Charles G. Mossop
Melody: A Bicycle Built For Two
DAISY, DAISY, you wonderful format true,
We're going crazy, converting's
so hard to do.
But you really are what we're needing,
To digitize our reading,
So we looked around and we're glad we found,
A system that's built like you.
DAISY, DAISY, there's nothing as good as that,
You're so simple, shiny
and round and flat.
It's widely believed to be factual,
That your discs are neat and compact-ual,
So we'll make a splash with some Federal cash,
For a system that's built
like you.
DAISY, DAISY, some clients think you're no good,
They like the old way-somehow
we thought they would.
They say that you're new-fangled,
They'd rather have tape well tangled,
But you're the choice, for our digital voice:
A system that's built like you.
For your reading, DAISY will see you through.
If your sight grows blurred or hazy, Then just remember DAISY,
For you can read at remarkable speed,
With the system that's built for you.
