Everybody’s trying to get noticed .
It’s an affirmation of our lives.
It isn’t real until it’s been,
tweeted, facebooked or socialized.
Everybody’s trying to get noticed.
15 seconds of fame is everybody’s aim.
Did Andy get it wrong back in the sixties,
the measure of success
is the number of website hits
you Facebook gets an hour
Would mother Theresa
be sending a million tweets,
just like the rest of us,
if it could help
The not so better offs
all trying to second guess
the pathway to success.
Google’s got it sorted
algorithms to make you stop.
Add in some keywords
that you think might be hot
to add to the slop, or maybe not.
Engine rank of a billion
that don’t get you nothin’
not your fifteen second window
on TV or a youtube video.
Something crazy going on.
Cat videos are ranking strongly.
Maybe that’s the future of the world
From here on maybe?
Everybody’s trying to get noticed
it’s an affirmation of our lives
it isn’t real until it’s been
tweeted, facebooked or socialized
Everybody’s trying to get noticed
Song lyric June 2016
