ATTACK OF THE MEME

[cosmic_celery]

The Rules:
Put your MP3 player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results.

How I differed from the rules:
The thing that resulted made no sense (as you can see beneath the cut) so I moved things around to make it look like an actual poem. Not uninteresting, really.

Shuffle track poem:

Let me introduce meself,
(people are strange when you're a stranger).
Well I'm a little beggarman, I am a beggarman;
my skin is white as parchment.

Speak about Greenly now that she's gone:
"Das werden deine Freunde dir noch büßen!"
She told me that I was lame.
It's understood, (I said it many ways.)

All right Sunday Night where are you?
Well, I spent all my money at the record store
Do you remember a guy thats been In such an early song?
He's keeping busy.
Body rap, body rap, body rap, body rap,
heart-carved tree trunk, Yankee bayonet.
You'll never know what happened to me.

Do you remember that old T.V. show Arthur C. Clarke's Mysterious World?

When I was born, they looked at me and said,
"when we arrive, sons and daughters,

put your face up to the window.

Here the dawn comes, chase away the night."
