Sammy Set and his Internet

This is the story of Sammy Set-
And I know you won't believe it's true.
He loved to surf the internet
Almost as much as you.

He surfed all day,
he surfed all night
Till his face grew pale and green,
From website to website to website
And the search engines in between.

He surfed till his eyes were large and glazed
being always on the screen
Even his friends were really amazed
on how much he seemed so keen

And his brains expanded into cyberspace
And his face became the view screen
And two small speakers took the place
Where his ears should have been

And he grew a tail that was attached to a mouse
And he started to make little squeaks
And now Sammy Set sits in the house
Not having been surfed for weeks.

based loosely on a poem by Shel Silverstein "Where The Sidewalk Ends"
