A Poetic Happy Media Um

What I never say is  

Should be a question on a game show quiz  

Did I tell you about the time  

Standing in line  

Only to find myself most likely declined  

Since I did not have the right look  

Wanted in the casting book  

What I never say is  

Should be a question on an audition quiz  

There was a reason for all that  

Thinking about it where I sat  

Dealing with a mentality of a rat  

Looking for cheese  

Forgetting words thank you and please  

What I never say is  

This is ‘show biz’  

Not seeing any fizz  

Loading on a dock  

Or industrial block   

Only machines going by  

Telling a story to make the audience laugh or cry  

Using facades having no backing  

Issue visual talent do the attacking  

Light's camera action  

This will be some attraction  

Inside a studio owned military hanger ever so cold  
Praying production does not fold  

Keeping things cool  

Asking themselves ‘are they really the fool?’  

Swimming in the on-air placement pool  

Winners in the interview contest  

Thinking they are the best  

Looking into a recording device  

Having a presentation honest and nice  

Enjoying their wedding rice  

After being on a roll with the dice  

Finding a special day  

Romancing on the bay  

When opportunity knocked 

Timed well just like setting the clock  

What I would say was  

Those photogenic people do make the buzz  

Honeybees in a twenty-four-hour perpetual hive  

Keeping us feeling alive
