Ode to Electricity

My Ode to Electricity, sung to the tune of home on the range! Wrote during the last ice storm where we had no electricity for four days!!

Oh give me a home where the power acutally works and the water is hot all day.
Where the fridge works and the food will stay cold and not spoil on my plate.
Oh home home with the lights where have you been all my life?
I'm so tired and cold, can't see the end of my nose and now my little candle is running low!
Oh home home with the lights hot water to bathe by,
Where I won't be cold and end up with pneumonia just trying to take a bath.
Now the trees are all falling down, the roads has limbs all around, and I can no longer see my neighbor's house!
Home home where's my lights?And my hot water to bathe by? Heat on my feet so they won't freeze and my toes turn blue and stiff! Well now my lights fading out, I think I'll go lay down, under twenty blankets or so just trying not to be cold and think of Tahiti and not snow!!
