The Lyrics
...a spam song
And did this spam in modern time
Stalk upon this land's macs and pcs
A wink's not as good as a nod
On this land's present secure screens
I didn't count them once past nine
Sent as a con - a crowded hail
And what's the use of them sent to here
Amongst the junk mechanic mail?
Filter my mail discerning bold
Filter the circulars so dire
Filter the spam do as your told
Filter's a lariat on hire
They'll not increase or get in sight
Nor shall a word creep in my head
So what on earth's the use of them?
In this hand spam is rendered dead
Stalk upon this land's macs and pcs
A wink's not as good as a nod
On this land's present secure screens
I didn't count them once past nine
Sent as a con - a crowded hail
And what's the use of them sent to here
Amongst the junk mechanic mail?
Filter my mail discerning bold
Filter the circulars so dire
Filter the spam do as your told
Filter's a lariat on hire
They'll not increase or get in sight
Nor shall a word creep in my head
So what on earth's the use of them?
In this hand spam is rendered dead
