“Sell Out” with apologies to Dr. Seuss

Read these blogs which are eco-friendly

And unwanted adds that are sent un-endly

They will make you responsible and wise,

and you can buy things in any size.

Will you read them, earn me some clams?

Will you read green blogs and spam?

I will not read them, not even click

The very thought, it makes me sick

My in-box is bursting, my computer is full

I've never read anything so dull.

I will not read them, Sam the Add-man

I will not read green blogs and spam.

Would you read them on a phone?

Would you read them on the throne?

I will not read them, they have no soul

They do not tempt me, they have no role.

I will not read them, Sam the Add-man

I will not read green blogs and spam

But will you write them, make serious cash?

Infect some hard drives, and make them crash?

Live like a king, they won't know who

sent them this infested pile of goo.

Wait, I'll get paid for writing this twaddle?

For opining about things that I don't know squattle?

I can pay my mortgage, pay my bills

Settle all kinds of financial ills.

Could I write them, Sam the Add-man?

Could I write green blogs and spam?

Yes, sell your soul, come on over

This will be a treasure trover

You'll be rich for all future tomorrows

You just have to let go of your morals

Will you write them, integrity be dammed?

Will you write green blogs and spam?

I will! I will write them here and there,

I will write them in my underwear!

I will send them near and far,

I will send them to Zanzibar!

But I will have to use papyrus,

'Cause my computer has a virus.
