What’s Happening Mr. Zuck

What’s happening Mr. Zuckerberg      
What’s happening to my page
My colleagues say it’s dying                 
And 'X' is now the rage 

What’s happening Mr. Zuck                                  

Perhaps because I’m elderly
Old friends have left the stage
But new requests now bother me       
They’re so easy now to gauge             

Single Ladies in prime of life            
With bosoms proudly cleft                
Who tell me they are single now
Or sadly left bereft

They all seem eager                             
To have an online chat  
They also like to call me, Dear!      
So, there’s nothing wrong with that

What’s Happening Mr. Zuck

They have a morbid interest
In what I like to eat
But once that’s been established
Start turning up the heat

Many of us have welcomed in
Someone, a known true friend        
To find some vipers cloned his page 
And again, it’s all pretend                   

What’s happening 
What’s happening Mr. Zuck

What’s happening Mr. Zuckerberg
We know you’ve got the tools
To eliminate the scammers
Who treat us all like fools

What’s happening Mr. Zuckerberg 
On the dark side of the web                              
So many innocent souls lost         
Within that vast cobweb

What’s happening Mr Zuck

It’s mostly for the young folk
That I silently despair
You must have seen the heartache
That’s going on out there

There has always been a ‘Bully’
Out in the old schoolyard
But now with social media
He lurks behind your cloud

Make it happen, Mr Zuckerberg
Put your algorithms to the test
Make cyber world a safer place
So their souls may find some rest

So their souls may find some rest
Their souls may find some rest.
