Thugs don’t smash shops, Tweeters do
Posted on August 8, 2011The growing suggestions that Twitter is somehow to blame for the riots we’ve seen around the country mean I can’t help but think of Goldie Lookin Chain’s rap-comedy classic “Guns Don’t Kill People, Rappers Do“. Maybe it’s time for a cover version:
Thugs don’t smash shops – Tweeters do
Ask any politician and they’ll tell you it’s true
It’s a fact, that Retweeting makes you violent
Carpetright would be fine if we’d all kept silent
You don’t believe me? Here’s my hype
No-one ever rioted before we could type
Look at the criminals, caused by this Tweeting
It’s a fact @johnrentoul left me bleeding
@stephenfry made me do street crimes
When we had FriendsReunited there were never bad times
