Modern Times

I’ve got a secret
I’ll tell you that it’s true
It’s not something I regret
But it will be a surprise too

The papers will want to hear 
A raise of your TV ratings it will bring
It will be something they will fear
I will say the nasty thing

The more likes I get on Facebook 
Will make me smile even more
I’ll make them look a bunch of sooks
This will be my best score.
