"Bye, bye Mr 'How Great Am I'
Took my Twitter to the shitter and I had a good cry
Them good old boys are givin' me the side-eye
And the time for my leavin' is nigh.

The three men I admire most
Me, myself and I are toast
It's time for givin' up the ghost
Today---the pretense died"

7. "Took my twitter to the shitter..."

I don't usually like these "to the tune of..." things, but this one is EXCELLENT!

You should totally finish it! All eight thousand stanzas, or however many the real song has. I think it's eight thousand. So off you go. I want them on my desk by noon!
