Day: March 30, 2024

The cable was out last night for a short period so I spent a portion of my evening listening to some old song parodies of mine and impressing myself.

“Really?”

“What?”

“Have you ever heard of humility”

“Hey, it’s a little early for that, temps are still a bit cool ’round here”

“(sigh) You’re an idiot”

“Skills my friend … skills”

Anyway (and deja vu) from back when I was doing almost exclusively Beatles covers in my early parodies and a one that still works, as if it were current, 5 years later and a still stark reminder.

Tricking the Whole

(to The Beatles “Fixing A Hole”)

I’m tricking the whole to new reign of a King

To keep their minds from wondering

What the truth knows

.

I’m filling the gaps marking all that I say

With prop-a-ganda being way

To sell truth now

.

And it’s really heady matter for elites I lie

For a fake press I lie

The haters cry

.

But see my dog base blinding there who loyally lap at my feet

Never finding truth crumbs on the floor

.

I’m painting bona fide in a red white and blue

My fingers make confusing swirls

Till you let go

Oooh Oooh Oooh Ahh Ahh

(succumb you will in time)

Hey Hey Hey … Hey

.

And hey batter batter batter

Swing and miss my man, can’t hit this pitch you can’t

Not this big spin

.

I’m on the mound base is the crowd

They pay no mind they are fact free

See how they’re wowed by my huge back door curve

.

I never take time to study the things that were important yesterday

They don’t matter now

Oooh Oooh Oooh Ahh Ahh

Hey Hey

.

I’m tricking the whole to new reign of a King

It gets my mind to wandering ’bout new royals Ohhhh

Who we could own owwwwnnn

.

I’m tricking the whole to new reign of a King

My mind is always floundering

In a dark hole … in a dark whole
