You Can't Hurry Blogs

I'm a little behind on some things, and thought if you were waiting for some content, you might appreciate this seldom-heard variation on The Supremes song "You Can't Hurry Love." I couldn't get Diana to sing it, but the original tune is posted below for melody, and you can sing along with the modified words.

I need a post, post
to ease my mind
I need to find, find
a blog to call mine
But mama said

You cant hurry blogs
No, you just have to wait
She said posts dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

You cant hurry blogs
No, you just have to wait
You got to trust, give it time
No matter how long it takes

But how many sh*tty posts must I stand
before I find a blog
To let me live again
Right now the only thing
That keeps me hangin on
When I feel my strength, yeah
Its almost gone
I remember TAN he said:

You cant hurry blogs
No, you just have to wait
he said posts dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

How long must I wait
How much more can I take
Before sh*tty blogs will cause my laptop to break?

No I cant bear to leave the net alone
I grow impatient for a site to call my own
But when I feel that i, I cant go on
TAN's precious words keeps me hangin on
I remember when he said:

You cant hurry blogs
No, you just have to wait
he said posts dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

You cant hurry blogs
No, you just have to wait
he said trust, give it time
No matter how long it takes

No posts, posts, dont come easy
But I keep on waiting, anticipating
for that snarky voice
To talk to me at night
For some U-R-L
To hold me tight
I keep waiting
I keep on waiting
But it aint easy
It aint easy
But mama said:

You cant hurry blogs
No, you just have to wait
She said to trust, give it time
No matter how long it takes

You cant hurry blogs
No, you just have to wait
She said posts dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

  2. Well done. I was hoping you'd lipsync and dance along. Maybe tomorrow's post? I volunteer to help with hair and makeup.

    You know it's true. It is a game of give and take. Who knew this song would be so prophetic about the world of blogging 30-40 years in advance.
