I Can't Get Curated
Parody of "I Don't Like Monday's" by The Boomtown Rats
The poetry piece inside my head Gets switched to medium Formatting publishing promoting today As we all got to stay at home I really do not understand it I always thought it was as good as gold And I can see no reason 'Cause there are no reasons What reason do I need to be sure
Oh, oh, oh tell me why I don’t get curated
Tell me why I don’t get curated
Tell me why I don’t get curated I want to shoot The whole site down
The poems inside are not so clean As I share to a waiting world And readers feel so shocked Medium’s world is rocked And their thoughts turn to their own little world not obscene ain’t that squeaky clean Now, it is quiet sweet to admit defeat They can give no reasons ’Cause there are no reasons What reason do you need oh, whoa
Tell me why I don’t get curated
Tell me why I don’t get curated
Tell me why I don’t get curated I want to shoot The whole site down Down, down Shoot it all down
All the writing’s stopped in the poem room I want to throw my toys right out And staff’s in early and soon they’ll curate And the lesson today is how to write And then the email tinkles with rejection notices With no answers on the how’s and why’s And they can give no reasons 'Cause there are no reasons The reasons that I need to cry, cry
Oh, oh, oh and The poetry piece inside my head Gets switched to medium Formatting publishing promoting today As we all got to stay at home I really do not understand it I always thought it was as good as gold And I can see no reason 'Cause there are no reasons What reason do I need to be sure
Tell me why I don’t get curated
Tell me why I don’t get curated
Tell me why I don’t get, I don’t get, get curated I don’t Tell me why I don’t get, I don’t get, (tell me why) I don’t get curated Tell me why I don’t get curated I want to shoot, the whole site down, uh, uh, uh
