Listen to a performance of this poem

My Next Big Thing

You’re gonna be my next big thing
I’ll bring you flowers
Buy you bling
Flood your inbox
Make your mobile ring
You’ll be the love song that I sing
The centre of my scene
My Carnival Queen
You’re gonna be my next big thing

You are
With you I’m a fuel-injected car
You’re my superstar
My favourite dream
My chocolate ice cream
My romantic theme
My bright sunbeam
The focus of my future schemes
We’re sewn together at the seam
A winning team
You’re gonna be my next big thing

Some say I’m infatuated
Some say you’re overrated
Some say I should be castrated

Without you
What can I do?
I’m in a stew
I’m so deflated
Ok – I know we haven’t yet dated
But nothing will ever come between us
I’ll even let you share my toothbrush
You’re gonna be my next big thing

I’ll be the ding to your dong
I’ll be the King to your Kong
I’ll be the ping to your pong
You’ll be Posh to my Becks
I’ll be Romeo to your Juliette
You’re gonna be my next big thing

Till next week
Then I’ll be on a mission to seek
Someone else to stop my days being bleak
To make my temperature soar
And blood pressure peak
Who’ll make my pendulum swing
Who’s gonna be my next next big thing
