The Tweet Before Christmas (video) #TweetB4Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the web,

Mouses were stirring, and eyes turning red.

Looking for fun, in all the wrong places;

Myspace, Linkedin, had no friendly faces.

Mafia wars, Farmville, not filling the void,

Accidentally found Twitter, on my new Droid.

Thought it was silly, useless, absurd;

But in less than an hour, I turned into a nerd!

Uploaded a picture from 10 years ago-

That’s good enough, no one will know!

No longer overweight, bald or unemployed;

Now sexy, exotic and overjoyed.

Visions of friendships, with musicians and stars,

This was way better, than any bar!

Stumbled on an account, called BLEEP my dad says;

And that celebrity blogger named Perez.

140 characters to make an impression,

Then my screen froze, so I tried to refresh it.

When what to my wondering eyes should appear;

But a funny looking whale, that filled me with fear.

I waited and waited, for a chance to tweet;

There was no way I’d accept defeat!

Back to the stream, back to the feed-

Reading all this info, with a hungry need!

Got advice from Guy, Brogan and Gary;

Decided not to listen, and spammed in a hurry!

Kardasian, Mashable, Ashton, Demi,

Ellen, Oprah, Beiber, Britney!

Follow me now, follow me please,

Follow me Blake, don’t be a tease!

Have to tell you, how my day began,

What I ate, what I drank, when I went to the can!

Then I heard a noise, from out my lawn;

It was getting late, close to dawn.

So I looked out the window and snapped a pic;

Tweeted a photo, of what I thought was Saint Nick!

It was my neighbor, Lady Gaga, wearing a suit;

Of red meat steak cutlets, and black stiletto boots!

And I heard her exclaim, as she ran out of sight,

“Alejandro, Alejandro,” and to all a good-night!
