Turning off the PC


Killing time before a attending a songwriter's show tonght at 8, I came up with this Shel Silversteinian lyric.  

I’ve got no friends on Facebook
And I’m feelin’ blue about it.
‘Cause when there’s news to share
I’ve got no place to shout it
I’d hang my head in shame
If I hadn’t already bowed it
I’ve got no friends on Facebook
And I’m feelin’ blue about it

I’ve got no friends on MySpace
And I’m feeling really low
I send out friend requests
But the answer’s always no
Ya know, no friends on MySpace
Is about as low as you can go
I’ve got no friends on MySpace
And I’m feelin’ really low

I’ve got no friends on Twitter
And what’s THAT all about
I got no tweets comin’ in
And no tweets goin’ out
I feel just like a paper boy
With no-one on his route
I’ve got no friends on Twitter
And what’s that all about
 
I guess I’ll turn the PC off
Why do I need friends?
All they’ll do is hurt
My feelin’s in the end
Ya know it's happened before
N' it'll happen again
I guess I’ll turn the PC off
Why do I need friends?
 
Yep, I’m turning off the PC
Now what am I to do?
I think I’ll take a walk
It’s a lovely afternoon
Or maybe read a book
Or learn to play the spoons
Yep, I'm turning off the PC
Now what am I to do?

  1. I can't find any button to click on anywhere that will play this song. hahahaa Are you just posting the lyrics for us all to read?

    Answer to the song: Watch Korean drama... that should add some virtual drama into anyone's life instantly. hahahahaa If not, play games and do the online thingy where you suddenly have unknown partner/enemy.

  2. No music for this one yet. Just a lyric for you to read. I had an hour to kill before going to a songwriter's meeting downtown tonight. So I wrote a funny song lyric!

    You sure like those Korean soap operas. But that's where drama belongs. On TV, not real life.
