I came up with some lyrics, meant to be sung to the tune of “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious”. Maybe one of the more musically talented of you could make an actual video. Anyway, hope you all like it:

Because the building up the street
Was forty stories tall
If there was an emergency
We’d need to warn them all
So we cooked up a computerized
Control machine to use
Rectangular and functional
And clever through and through
Multiplex-addressable-networkable-transponder!
Its simplified complexity
Is quite the thing to ponder
Its forty thousand blinkenlights
Might baffle first responders

We wired up the S-L-C’s and found it quite a breeze
Because they transmit data you can tap them like a “T”
Then we did the speaker/strobes and made a little goof
We mounted them invertedly and made them weatherproof
Multiplex-addressable-networkable-transponder!
Its simplified complexity
Is quite the thing to ponder
Its forty thousand blinkenlights
Might baffle first responders
Multiplex-addressable-networkable-transponder!
Simplex Forty One Hundred U

If it signals trouble
Then there’s no need for dismay
Just go to the main console
Check the LCD display
When wired by professionals
It can save your bloody life
For example…
Yes?
One night, I leave a candle on, and the speakers start to gripe:
“An emergency’s been detected” So I got up and left.
That’s our Multiplex-addressable-networkable-transponder!
