Dashing through the stacks
with a Kindle in my arms
Dodgin’ folks dirty looks
They’re immune to e-book charms
Hand-held ring tones sing
Mine plays Three Dog Night
What fun it is to mobilize
My library tonight.
Oh, blog and chat, LOL
Facebook all the way
Oh, what fun it is to Tweet
my deep thoughts every day
Blog and chat, LOL
Facebook all the way
My status says “I’m almost home.”
More WordTwist I will play.
I used to go offline
But now it makes me Jones
How can you dodge the grid
with Netbooks and iPhones?
I need something more real
I’ll go and play the Wii
And do my printing with e-ink
It’s green to save a tree.
Oh, blog and chat, LOL
Facebook all the way
Oh, what fun it is to Tweet
my deep thoughts every day
Blog and chat, LOL
Facebook all the way
My status is an inside joke
Is that clever or cliché?
A dozen years ago
There was no Google search
No fickr, eBay, or YouTube
The world was in the lurch
One-forty keystrokes more
What did we do before?
We read whole books and saw our friends
It really was a bore.
Oh, blog and chat, LOL
Facebook all the way
Oh, what fun it is to Tweet
my deep thoughts every day
Blog and chat, LOL
Facebook all the way
I’ll see you all in Twenty-Ten
Enjoy the holiday!
