To start with lines of rhythm, is usually my bag
But this one doesn’t seem quite right
Because I know the future just might drag
Seeing as you’ve just given me, a darn good bloody fright.
Now get your act in gear my friend,
And tell me, what’s the beef?
You think I’m going to let you send
An IM as you leave.
You know me not to let that be
You know I’ll hunt you down
So spill the beans my BI
Don’t make me sit and frown
How the hell am I suppose to act
If my Bi disappears
Did you think of dropping our team pact?
After building all those years
Come on, don’t keep us all in tender hooks
Tell us who he is and when?
And do I book the church just now?
The one across the Glen?
Oh and another thing, nearly forgot
What about that wee surprise
The one that’ll brighten up your page
And put a twinkle in your eyes.
Being silver isn’t all that bad
But being gold is just a hoot
You never thought of that BI
When I sent you off the loot.
Now tell me what’s gone on
And get your bony ass online
You think your slinking off
And popping back from time to time?
You know I just won’t have it
You never were that shy
You ain’t just walking off you know
Contracts signed, right there, BI...
So forget your little travels
To fields farther away
Your place is here amongst us
This is where you have to stay
Yes, alright the others might be good,
And say you need to stay
And some might even wish you peace
Where ever you may lay
But this is me your reading
So get that daft thought out your head
Where else but here on AP
Will your words often be read?
So close this now and judge it
Tell your sidekick to lend a hand
And get back to your writing
Get your head out of the sand
I won’t tell you again now
This is not the road to go
So sign back in and do your stuff
I expect nothing less you know.
