That tune that’s goin’ ‘round?
I’m diggin’ it! I’m diggin’ it!
Have you been out to the show?
Do you know the way to go?
I’m diggin’ it! I’m diggin’ it!
Ain’t this a crazy scene?
Like nowhere else you’ve been?
I’m diggin’ it! I’m diggin’ it!
Have you tried ecstasy?
Would you like two or three?
I’m diggin’ it! I’m diggin’ it!
Was it you we tried to save?
Did you find an early grave?
I’m diggin’ it! I’m diggin’ it!
I really like this. I could sing it while I'm in my garden digging up those pesky weeds. Tee-Hee. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll write a special weed-pulling version for ya!
ReplyDeleteIs that a weed?
It is indeed!
I'm diggin' it! I'm diggin' it!
What a conincidence. Such a different topic.
ReplyDeleteI'm diggin it...guess you were waiting for that one! :)
ReplyDeletecareful not to dig that grave too early...drugs are a quick way to get there...
ReplyDeletewhoaaaa no drugs no drugs! I love the way you write.. your poems (and comments you leave me) never fail to make me smile :)
ReplyDeletegreat write - i'm diggin your poem eric....
ReplyDeletediggin' it but i'd rather not be dug for :)
ReplyDelete"was it you we tried to save"? your poem says a lot more than meets the eye...after reading it over several times "i'm gettin' it'"....very nice rhythm and meaningful message behind the beats...great write...
ReplyDeleteDigging that reversal at the end. Great punchline-type finale that's unexpected and meaningful.
ReplyDeleteThat turn a "grave" turn towards the end, Eric... powerful stuff! Very well composed, I must say!
ReplyDeleteCool the reversal at the end.:)
ReplyDeleteOh, I almost lost control on the sharp turn at the end. Can you sing that for us? seriously though...the truth and consequences do take a very sharp turn at times.
ReplyDeleteWell. You told the entire story, didn't you?
ReplyDeleteI can imagine the Disco lights and gyrations for this song! LOL
ReplyDeleteThe perils of pills, eh? :)
ReplyDeleteGreat turn near the end - in fine poetic tradition, it delivers the message.
ReplyDeleteWell done! Nice turn at the end.
ReplyDeleteParties seem so exciting until you're dead. What a drag, dude. :D
ReplyDeleteGood twist on "the scene", much enjoyed! ~ Rose
ReplyDeleteNice commentary on the happenin' scene. Too many of the cool kids are diggin' it too well.
ReplyDeleteA serious message... but I couldn't help but smile because the song tune made it lighter...well done!
