[Ronnie Rowlands]

well, seeing as the last one was so um.. well received... here's my latest effort, this one is for all those out there who get pissed off at people saying "why do you sit on the computer? you're a loser, you should go out in to the sun". It goes like this--

The sun has always been a vital part
of frolics for the children we have bred.
But why must it upset the applecart
when I decide to stay indoors instead?

I'd rather watch a nice long DVD,
or slouch around and play computer games.
I'll let the sunshine be what it will be,
the sun will live, it need not know my name.

It burns my skin and makes me foul and sick,
it makes me tired and want to fall asleep.
To sunbathe in a thong would bore me stiff,
The thought of craving tans would make me weep.

From my TV I get a gripping plot,
But from the sun? My head will burn and ache.
Are balls of flame a drama? I think not!
It's always looked the same for heaven's sake!

Why can't one be a quiet introvert,
who keeps his head down much to no dismay?
Why should one be a noisy extrovert
who causes fights and drinks throughout the day?

I've sev'ral friends, some on the internet,
and some I chat to socially in school,
but socialising outdoors makes me fret,
not least because a lot of them are fools.

One sees outside when sitting in one's house,
why does one need to feel it on one too?
What's wrong with sitting quiet as a mouse,
Whilst doing things they'd much prefer to do?

Don't get me wrong, the sun does have its charm,
I know the sun can fill one's soul with glee.
But don't forget us 'nerds', we cause no harm,
Now bugger off, I want to watch TV.
