Two weeks ago, not being able to imagine what it would be like to be out of content, I culled a top 15 list of ideas of what to do from my fellow bloggers. But they weren’t very entertaining, so last week I outlined ten great ideas that you could use to entertain your readership if you were truly out of content. But I left out my favorite idea — write a satirical, slightly sarcastic, self-deprecating tune. To illustrate this suggestion, I give you “Spend Content Free”.

The following lyrics are to the tune of Consequence Free by Great Big Sea. (Lyrics)

Wouldn’t it be great? No one would ever got offended.
Wouldn’t it be great to show there’s nothing on my mind!
I have always said ‘my blog posts are just space-filling,
And if I just said nothing, would that be such a crime?

I wanna be spend-content free.
I wanna be where nothing needs to matter.
I wanna be spend-content free.
And just write Na Na Na    Na Na Ne Na    Na Na

I could really use, to lose my vendor conscience.
Cuz I’m getting sick of telling the truth all the time!
I won’t abuse it, cuz I’ve got good intentions.
Just a little bit of gossiping, but not the hurting kind.

I wanna be spend-content free.
I wanna be where nothing needs to matter.
I wanna be spend-content free.
And just write Na Na Na    Na Na Ne Na    Na Na

I didn’t miss a wink last night,
cause I have nothing on my mind.
I’d like to post a thought sometimes,
but you know it’s not that easy.

I wanna be spend-content free.
I wanna be where nothing needs to matter.
I wanna be spend-content free.
And just write Na Na Na    Na Na Ne Na    Na Na

Wouldn’t it be great, if sponsorships never ended.
I could miss a post and I would never hear last check.
I wouldn’t need to worry about approval or commission,
I could – run off the track and never worry ’bout the rent.

I wanna be spend-content free.
I wanna be where nothing needs to matter.
I wanna be spend-content free.
And just write Na Na Na    Na Na Ne Na    Na Na
