Modern Day Lyrics for "Your Mama Don't Dance and Your Daddy Don't Rock and Roll":
Your mama don't tweet and your daddy don't blog and poll
Your mama don't tweet and your daddy don't blog and poll
When evening rolls around and your favorite site is down
Where do you go to blog and poll?
The old folks say that ya gotta shut it down by ten
If you tweet on a date ‘cause your friends can’t wait, it's a sin
There just ain't no excusin' and you know you're gonna lose and never win
I'll say it again
And it's all because
Your mama don't tweet and your daddy don't blog and poll
Your mama don't tweet and your daddy don't blog and poll
When evening rolls around and your favorite site is down
Where do you go to blog and poll?
You pull out your new iPhone and find a place to text
You snap a shot of your girlfriend, and boy she sure looks vexed
You're just about to TwitPic so all your friends can see
There's a light in your eye, and then a guy says,
"Turn off the cell, DouchBag!
Louise, you're coming with me, Local Police!"
And it's all because
Your mama don't tweet and your daddy don't blog and poll
Your mama don't tweet and your daddy don't blog and poll
When evening rolls around and your favorite site is down
Where do you go to blog and poll?
Where do you go to blog and poll?
Where do you go to blog and poll?

Thanks, John!
what a wonderful little diddy that is!! fits right in with the times we R a living!!
where have you been, I used to thoroughly enjoy your postings and now I don't find them very often -
Hi Fran,
Well, since I've been trying to become a social media expert, I've been on Blogger, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, but not as much on gather... I do stop in here once inawhile, but it's hard to keep up with all the networks! Good to see you again!
very clever
Thanks, Leslie!
I absolutely love this! Wonderful!
Always a pleasure getting a comment from you, David. :-)
You're a moo-sician! I love it. Mah mamma definitely don't Tweet (but then neither do I) and mah daddy, if he were alive, would scoff at the very word "blogging" (for it is silly, yea verily).
But then he did go around singing "I've gotta be me; I used to be you; and then we were us, but now I've gotta be meeee" ... so I know he'd like your lyrics, too.
You're crazy, Tracy! I love it!
Nice job Yvette. Have you recorded this?
Um... no. I actually did sing the original version with a friend on his karaoke machine the other night... that's what made me even think of changing the lyrics. But there's no way I'm going to record it! But if you make a YouTube video of it, maybe I'll put it on my website!
