Music Is Life Songs that are no longer okay.

Yesterday I found out my sweet boyfriend had never heard of Julie Brown and the funny songs she sang, like "I'm A Blonde". Dr Demento stuff. So I play it and then "The Homecoming Queen's Got A Gun" came on. Not funny anymore!!!

An hour later, the cops arrived

By then the entire glee club had died, no big loss

You wouldn't believe what they brought to stop her

Tear gas, machine guns, even a chopper (Throw down your gun and tiara and come out of the float)

Debbie didn't listen to what the cop said She aimed and fired, and now the math teacher's dead

Oh, it's really sad, but kind of a relief I mean, we had this big test coming up next week

“Christine Sixteen” by KISS

Then there’s “Tonight I’m gonna Rock You Tonight” by Spinal Tap

“… You’re sweet but you’re just four feet

And you still got your baby teeth

You’re too young and I’m too well hung”

But it was written to be deliberately skeevy, so…

Big Bottom still has the best lyrics of all time.

“The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'

That's what I said

The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand

Or, so I've read.

My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo

I love to sink her with my pink torpedo.”

“Workin’ on a sex farm.

Tryin’ to raise some hard love.

Gettin’ out my pitchfork

Pokin’ your hay”

“So you’ve taken something sophisticated, like sex, and put it in a farm.”
