Throw Them All a Bone
by Julie Lacksonen
This poem is dedicated to those who read and respond on the Facebook Vocal support groups. I appreciate that you take time you could be writing to connect with others.
This is a piggyback song, meaning the tune is borrowed but the words are original. I used the melody for “This Old Man.” Enjoy!
This great man, number 1
He makes Vocal so much fun
He’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw him a bone.
Help with his next milestone.

This nice gal, number 2
If you ask, then she’ll come through
She’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw her a bone.
Help with her next milestone.
