Here’s the video of You’re No One If You’re Not On Twitter (The Twitter Song):

Lyrics:

You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter
And if you aren’t there already you’ve missed it
If you haven’t been bookmarked, retweeted and blogged
You might as well not have existed

In the old days it was all about achievements
Collecting all your trophies in a shrine
Then everybody came across the internet
And suddenly you had to be online

A home page was all you really needed
To seem like a success but not a geek
As long as you updated semi-annually
And checked your email once or twice a week

You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter…

Technology was moving rather quickly
And the next thing you needed was a blog
With intimate and detailed press releases
And now and then a photo of your dog

More recently the students brought us Facebook
And everybody has a hundred friends
The parties in the photos look amazing
They’re not so great but everyone pretends

You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter…

Now you need to publish every movement
And every single thought to cross your mind
I’m told the Twitterverse is full of rubbish
But most of us are actually quite refined

We validate each other’s insecurities
And brag about the gadgets that we’ve bought
We laugh out loud at every hint of jolliness
And try to self-promote without being caught

You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter…

If you like the “You’re No One If You’re Not On Twitter” song and would love to have it on your mp3 player or play it on your computer, you can download it from this link. You can find out more about the song at it’s official page.

Personally, I think this song is much better than the WordPress song. The lyrics are more catchy and the melody sounds better. I especially like the backup voices. Great job Ben! So what’s next, a Plurk Song? What do you think of the Twitter Song? Is it worthy enough to be designated as the official song for Twitter? Please share your thoughts.
