\*\* Every Thread You Make.\*\*  
Sung to the tune of: _Every Breath You Take_ (With apologies to the group **The Police**.)

_ahem_ ~ 1-2-3-4 ~  
_(Intro)_  
Every thread you make,  
And every post opaque,  
Every rule you break, every name you fake,  
Mods are watching you.

Every single day,  
And every board survey,  
Every game you play, every old cliché,  
Mods are watching you.

Oh, can’t you seeeeeeeeeee,  
Lynn Bodiniiiiiiiiiiiiii,  
Is up nights awake,  
Fixing your mistakes.

Every dull thread wake,  
And every hand you shake,  
Every smiley you fake, for goodness sake,  
Mods are watching you.

My thread is gone, it’s lost without a trace,  
Administration called it a big disgrace,  
I look around, but it’s in another place,  
It’s way too slow, and I long for server space,  
I keep crying maybe, maybe, pleeeeeeeeze?

Oh, can’t you seeeeeeeee?  
The code is vBeeeeeee.  
How my poor eyes ache,  
With every code mistake.

Every thread you make,  
May be a Mod headache.  
So please don’t break, the rules they make,  
Mods are watching you.  
Every rule you break, every name you fake,  
Mods are watching you.  
Mods are watching you.  
_(repeat & fade)_

Thanks you’ve been a great audience.

smug, I need a picture of you.

I need something I can hang over my bed and kiss goodnight every night, just like I used to kiss my poster of Shaun Cassidy.

Sigh. I love genius. 😃

**Lynn** , surely you know by now we misspell your name on purpose. That way, we can say all sorts of things about you, but if you do a search for “Bodoni” you won’t come up with anything. 😃

**smug** , this made me giggle helplessly for a very long time. 🙂  
Which is bad, cuz I’ve got to keep up my macho image, or rather what macho image I have left, or…screw it, that’s one funny parody. _giggles some more_😃

[bubbles]Thank you, **smug** , for that lovely number![/bubbles]  
Seriously, that was the best thing I’ve read all day!😃  
But this:

made me laugh even harder for some reason.  
(Probably because I am a victim of frequent misspellings/mispronunciations of my name.)

Ooooops.  
Sorry Lynn. It’s kind of ironic that I screw up the part of the song that deals with you fixing poster mistakes. 😉

Awwwww - Thanks **Perse**. Here’s a pic of me relaxing at home. Just for you.  
[Smug@home](http://www.compusmart.ab.ca/quarry/Smug@home.jpg)😃

**Rilchiam** - Thanks, but as far as I know, there aren’t too many openings for a _SDMB Silly Song Writer_  
Besides, I don’t want to lose my amateur status. 🙂

**SilverFire** - … and again and again and again… Now I have this song stuck in my head, and I have to write another one to replace it. It’s a vicious cycle.

**Silly Rabbit** - Wooooo Hoooooo a groupie!!!  
_sniff_ I’m touched. You always remember your first groupie… 😉

\*\*Dodgy, Corvus, Cumber, silent\_rob, \*\* - I am glad you liked it. Even if only one line in the whole song makes ya crack a smirk, it’s worth it for me.

**Crunchy & Dichotomous** – Ummmmm – Yeah! – I **meant** to do that! That’s it!

Again, thanks everybody. I know I have WAY more fun writing them, then you people have reading them.  
But then I’m easily amused. 😃

rap huh?

Rap music is an intricate blend of musical and linguistic talents by very gifted and highly trained artists.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha! 😃

Gimme an hour… I’ll see what I can do.
