As promised, in celebration of reaching more than 1000 followers on Twitter I have written a song for you all 🙂
I’ve mentioned a few tweeps and would love to have been able to crowbar a few more of you in, but really there aren’t many Twitter names that rhyme with other Twitter names – or that rhyme with… just… words!
I’ve taken a little bit of license with the ‘scanning’ of the words. General rule… if there is a number at the end of a Twitter name I’ve ignored it for the purposes of (and I use this term loosely…) poetry. The only one that doesn’t apply to is @booksmusic72 – the ‘2’ is crucial for the purposes of (and I use this term even more loosely this time…) poetry.
The stuff in brackets in the chorus is to be shouted out!
And so.. to the tune of “The Hokey Kokey” I give you
A song for my Twitter followers...
Is That What it’s All About?
So what’s on Twitter folks?
Some famous blokes,
strong opinions & some Bible quotes
There’s ‘Cats that look like Hitler’ & some dogs in skirts
Is that what it’s all about ?

And love the Right
Or think that politics is all a load of… rubbish 🙂
