Watch TV, go goggle-eyed...

Post by MarkyJacobs »

What? You don't like this? Really? :huh:

"Watch TV go goggle-eyed
See a horror movie get petrified
Go dye your hair use peroxide
Smoke a spliff get red eye
Hitler wanted to commit genocide
To the allied powers he notified
Went into Poland, the place he occupied
They all had a war and millions died
Jerry Lee Lewis had a child bride
Only thirteen but he said he's justified
Clint Eastwood starred on RawHide
Now he lives in California off a mountain side
Making love you got to be satisfied
Make a mistake it's got to be rectified
Jesus Christ got crucified
So the Empire Rome could get gratified..."

I like it, I just think it's the least good song on a pretty perfect album. Some of the rap purists on here sneer at Don, but I think his rapping is fine.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

You remain uncontaminated by joy and humour, our lemon-faced pole star.
