It took me a minute to figure out where the heck I knew that line from. I had a girlfriend in h.s. who bought me the scarecrow tape for Christmas. It lived in the tape deck in my '76 Impala for a while there.

And now to forget that melody so I can write a new tune *bangs head on desk*

No time, sorry!
PS. any similarity of my name to cougars or whatever is completely nonexistent... given a rudimentary grasp of a few languages other than English.

A German version of John Cougar is funny to me, and I would name him Jan Krueger.
No offense intended. My apologies is I offended you.

I'd seriously go to the casino to watch Jan be John cover band. How awesome would that be?


....and I have a feeling Jan isn't easily offended. He sees you as inferior. :P

When was the time you left your house?
If I had a dollar for every one of my songs j$ has called a 90s pastiche, I'd have $1 for every song I've written.

I'm in on this one, under a pseudonym (it's pretty clever, see if you can tell which one is me).

B-A-B-Y, you ain't got no 18th-century leader of the Saramaccans?

Doin' double duty this week: Had to step in and finish up the WreckdoM song after King Colon was under the weather, got it in this morning in time to slap together the Brown Word song and get that in just a tad late... will they let me in? I hope so, though I admit should've started on it much earlier than I did. Procrastination is an Olympic talent of mine.

Oh well, enjoy!
