-- with apologies to Randy Newman --
Hate chats and blogging
they leave me cold
I know whatcher gonna say,
"jespah, you're just too old!"
Myspace is for boppers
I guess Sudoku's okay
Rollin' down the Info Highway
With my sweet RP at my side
Lookin' for the right place
And we was born to post
Roll over the mouse, put down the top
Crank up the Beach Boys baby
Don't let the music stop
We're gonna post it till we just can't post it no more
From the Word Games to the Autos
From Politics to the Travellers
Everybody's very happy
'Cause there's stuff to do all the time
Looks like another perfect day
I love A2K (We love it)
I love A2K (We love it)
Look at that photo
in WWE
Look at that spammer down there, man
He's down on his knees
These men and women
There ain't nothin' like 'em nowhere
North America bulletin board (We love it)
Australia bulletin board (We love it)
South America bulletin board (We love it)
Europe! Asia! Africa! (We love it, we love it)
I love A2K
I love A2K
(We love it)
Bobby Darin, Talk to the animals
If I could talk to the animals, just imagine it,
Chattin' with Deb in bunnyese
Imagine talking to a hawkman, chatting with Bob
What a neat achievement it would be!
If we could talk to the turtles learn all their languages,
I could take a yitwail degree,
I'd study Bailey, Beth's dog
And never get a flea.
I would converse with polar bear and squinney
And I would curse in dadpad's kangaroo,
If people ask me "can you speak rhinocerous?"
I'd say "of courserous! All of us do.
If I conferred with our furry friend, George,
Think of the amazing repartee
If I could walk with the animals, talk with the animals,
Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals,
And they could talk to me!
If I consulted with Timber's eagle
Think what fun we'd have asking over littlek's boxer for tea!
Or maybe lunch with two or three lions, walruses and sea lions
What a lovely place A2K would be!
If I spoke slang to gungasnake
The advantages why any fool on earth could plainly see!
Discussing Eastern art and Hindi
With intellectual spidergal's effendi
That's a big step forward , Boogie Bumble Bee.
I'd learn to chat with JL's cat in Spanish
And my Pekinese would be extremely good
If I were asked to sing in hippopotamus
I'd say "whynotamous?" and I would!
I'm gonna win a place in history
If I could walk with the animals
Talk with the animals
Grunt, squeak, squawk with the animals
And they could squeak and squawk and speak and talk to me!
psssst, Letty.
um ... I think you forgot to mention some fuzzy felines.
But that's OK.
Really it is!!! Honestly!
We don't are at all!
Certainly not!

I love all our pusscats,
Their coats are so warm....
They're clever and caring
And chock full of charm.
But don't pull their tails!
Nor rub the wrong way!
They've paws full of razors,
And don't ALWAYS play.
Yeah!!!!
The revenge of the fuzzies!
Ah, I am sorry about overlooking the cat kingdom, but I did get JL's familiar in there.
Some of these lyrics are truly masterful.
I can't believe i missed this thread all these years--this is a gem, EB, thanks.
ed, I don't think I ever said 'danke' for the first one you did with me in it.
...warmed the cockles, dude.
I just saw this too, great thread... here's mine.
Let me tell you a story about a man named OM
A heat-packing dude, always braggin' 'bout his gun
Then one day he was shootin' at some fool,
Who he found in his backyard, swimming in his pool.
Cops, they came, and threw him right in jail.

Well I met a pretty lady, CJ was her name
Had a strong accent, but she could still call me Mame
We met in San Franciso with a bunch from A2K
The nicest group of people I really have to say
Roxxx, Cyclo, Ob1, Francis
~~~
And I met Merry Andrews and his wife - goes by SGlass
And Cyclo's girlfriend, what'shername - okay I'm an ass
I hope to have as much fun in good old Albuquerque
But I don't know 'bout that, I hear some are pretty quirky.

To the tune of "Fame" by Irene Cara --
