Welcome to the Hotel Kaligula

Guest

On a warm night in April
Ling'ring in the air
Sweet sounds of the singer
With the wild curly hair
Did a search on the 'puter
Found a promising site
Fans excited to discuss that voice
I had to click and alight

There they were by the dozens
They'd heard the Scottish belle
Strangers chatting 'mong themselves
Like they knew one another so well
They all gave me a welcome
And they showed me around
I was smitten, oh yes, I was hooked
What a great place I'd found

Welcome to the Hotel Kaligula
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a warm embrace
Plenty of room at the Hotel Kaligula
For your SusaNews (for your SusaNews)
This is the place to cruise

A few were definitely twisted
Most seemed harmless old kooks
Several more made pretty pretty vids
That they called tributes
How they praised one another
Ex-cell-ent post!
Some post for attention
Some post just to post

So I wrote up a caption
Hey it made me laugh
And they said, it might be seen as negative
And that's a major gaffe
And all the voices were chiming in just to say
Let's just live in agreement
Walk the secret way

Welcome to the Hotel Kaligula
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a tight embrace
Give me a hug at the Hotel Kaligula
What a lovely guy (what a lovely guy)
They would never lie

Collection for a mirror
Collection for a door
We've had dozens of those collections here
We forgot what they're for
In another chamber
Sounds of trouble, sounds of strife
They kept stabbing with their needles but
THE QUILT HAD COME TO LIFE!!!

Last thing I remember
I was typing a PM
I had to make it clear to all
That I was not one of Them
"Relax," said the Admin,
"We are programmed to deceive:
You can resign any time you like,
But you can never leave!"

Thank you. It's been brewing in the back of my mind for at least several weeks, now, because I hear "Hotel California" at work all the time. The recent revelation that SBFII are no longer deleting the accounts of members who resign was the catalyst that made the concept fall into place.

Maybe we can sing it at the next World Fan Meet.

You are a wordsmith par excellence, Boh! That is brilliant! I could hear the melody in my head as I was reading the words -- you nailed that perfectly!

BOH, I'm impressed, it's a perfect fit with what is going on at SBFII. You did good, girl.

Guest

Thanks, all. Talent is good; making money from it would be even better. No wealthy husband's credit card required!

Anyway, if it helped some of you with necessary catharsis, that's what really counts. Someone should also post it as a warning at the gates of SBFII before any more hapless innocents wander in there.
