(To the tune of “It’s Hard Out Here for a Pimp”)

You know it's hard out here for the Post (cash flow slowin’)
We just tryin’ to get some money from the folks (not much showin’)
cause without it our reporters will be toast (money owin’).
Cause the ’net an’ all the bloggers got the poop
and the people payin’ bupkes for our scoops.

We just tryin’ to help some lobbyists compete here in this world.
If some businessmen and congressmen an White House personnel
Find they got somethin’ in common, is it wrong for us to sell?
Is it wrong for us to get some love for givin’ it a whirl?

Chorus

Why the blogosphere so negative 'bout our enterprise?
Why they forcin’ us to compromise
Don’t they realize
We got to actualize
Our financial prize?

Chorus
