Lyrics

Parody of "Mack the Knife" by Kurt Weil by way of Bobby Darin

Oh the Satch babe, will not tweet dear
For he can’t find the WiFi
Delayed podcasts has old TK babe
And his fingers will not type

Ya know when that Satch tries to use snapchat
Sarafina will scratch her head
He talks of newsprint and fears The Facebook
Which means his demo skews quite dead

Now in his pocket huh huh is an iPhone woo hoo
That holds loads of quite useless apps
Someone knows how to turn it on dear
But that someone is not the Satch

    Can there ever be enough Bertolt Brecht jingles?! I'm planning a suite of tunes derived from the Frankfurt School.

    "his demo skews quite dead" is my fave of a bunch of good lines! Airtime well deserved. Miss Lotte Lenya would be proud!
