Sung to the tune of Hit Me With Your Best Shot by Pat Benetar...dedicated to our very own, Uncle Meridian




Hit Me With Your Best Prose

You're a real good writer
With a long history
Of creating little songs like the one about spring
That's ok, I see how you do it
Pick up your pen, let's get down to it


Hit me with your best prose
Why don't you hit me with your best words
Hit me with your best prose
Fire away


You bring it when you think it
Just don't seem fair
You're a natural, but I don't care
I'll keep writing, not in vain
I know I can do it if I try again


Hit me with your best prose
Why don't you hit me with your best words
Hit me with your best prose
Fire away


You're a real good writer with a long history
Of creating little songs like the one about spring
Before you put another poem in your trophy space
You better make sure that you're in first place


Hit me with your best prose
C'mon
Hit me with your best words
Hit me with your next poem
Fire away!

Took me a while to see this one! Thanks, Lacy!

And prose? Hmm ... Prose is a battlefield! Haha!

PS: The spelling-bee-champion-emeritus in me sometimes likes to refer to Ms. Benatar by her natal surname of Andrzejewski. Don't ask me to pronounce it, though!
