Idol Me an Underdog

Eyeore's a brighter shade of blue


 

 

  
Mine That Bird 50-1
Steals the Kentucky Derby
Filly Rachel Alexandra
Dusts the boys at Preakness

Teen Shawn Johnson stuns
Dancing with the Stars
Soft rocker Kris Allen
Captures coveted American Idol title
 
Show me a quarter
I’ll sing you a tune
Idol me an Underdog

A drag of tail
A bark up the wrong tree
Come on, we’re next 
On the great-things-do-happen train
 
Pack your bag of dreams
Get your passion in motion
Put legs on your words
Eyeore is a brighter shade of blue
 
Show me a quarter
I’ll sing you a tune
Idol me an Underdog
 
All aboard…
 

Cynthia Borris

What a unique and wonderful piece! And as a writer, I just love your line, "Put legs on your words."

I had a great time with "Idol Me and Underdog." So count on this: I'll be back!

Very creative and lovely photo! Personally I believe Kris Allen had more versatility with his voice and can carry a variety of notes/songs
and is not limited to just rock. All were very good really.
