BLOGGIN’ ON THE WEB

By Nelson Ascher

How long can all the big media keep
Their public’s head in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many lies will a viewer stand
Till he turns off CNN?
Yes, 'n' how much crap must the Grey Lady print
Before she’s fisked in the end?
The answer, my friend, is bloggin’ on the web
The answer is bloggin’ on the web.

Why did the peace marchers wish so hard
That Iraq wouldn’t be free?
Yes, 'n' how many facts can the Guardian twist
Before its own readers flee?
Yes, 'n' how much more biased news will it take
To privatize BBC?
The answer, my friend, is bloggin’ on the web
The answer is bloggin' on the web.

How long will Chomsky repeat himself
Till he’s forgotten for good?
Yes, 'n' how many books will Michael Moore sell
Before he’s finally sued?
Yes, 'n' how long will France say she’s still a friend
Before this gets understood?
The answer, my friend, is bloggin’ on the web
The answer is bloggin' on the web
