Vitriolic rifts and schisms
Dress them up as witticisms
Underhanded criticisms
Paraded as a pretticism.
"Well, I know that's not a REAL word
Daahling, but this is showbiz! "
Feeding on the gossip hunger,
Revelling as rumour-monger
Make the story linger longer
Rub your hands and count the Wonga
" Money is SUCH a dirty word
Daahling, but this is showbiz! "
Spread the word on Who is Trending
Fragile egos all need mending
Vacuous opinions vending
Soundbites from your contacts sending
'Celebrity Hack is a HATEFUL term
Daahling! But, this IS showbiz! '
