Au revoir, mes amis mort! Nous, les vivant, garde la foi toujour.

Loan Palm (Loan Palm)
Now when he was a young man,
He never thought he’d see
People stand in line to post the first thing.

(Loan Palm) How’d you get so funky?
(funky Palm) Did you do the monkey?
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia (Loan Palm).

(Loan Palm) Now, if I’d known
they’d line up just to see you,
I’d trade in all your money
And buy you a new limo. (Loan Palm)

Messing with a donkey (funky Palm)
He’s my favorite honkey!
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia (Loan Palm)

Dancin’ by the Nile, (Disco Palm)
The ladies love his style, (waltzing Palm)
Rockin’ for a mile (rockin’ Palm)
He ate a crocodile.

He gave his life for tourism.
Golden idol!
He’s an Egyptian
They’re sellin’ you.

Now, when I die,
don’t think I got no qualm,
don’t want no fancy funeral,
Just one like ole Loan Palm. (Loan Palm)

He coulda won a Grammy,
Naked in his Jammies,
Born in Arizona, moved to Babylonia,
He was born in Arizona, got a condo made of stone-a,
Loan Palm!

I'd rather have the maid. she's cuter...

[hobbes1]

reasons for excising Saddam abound for those with a brain rubbing around in their skulls.

True, but how do we reach the democrats?

[xsmommy]

LMAO, perfect!

[xsmommy]

oops, guess they are SOL...

[camle]

it's a repeat. just wanted the Palmster to feel remembered.

[xsmommy]

i know, but i laugh every time i read it.

[Sword_of_Gideon]

Due to civilized peoples' dislike of the unsavory elements of the hip-hop crowd, let the revanchism begin against the "racist" citizens who only wish to keep their community safe & free of crime. Hip Hop Thugs

[camle]

well... no one will post a song for me...(snif!)

staggering to the wet bar, noticing the "Closed in commeration of September 11" sign, cursing, and resorting to the hip flask, cast about looking for the old thermos...

[xsmommy]

you know i would, but i am so not good at that kind of thing. {{{{{{camle}}}}}}} i am a better hugger than songstress.

[Bella_Bru]

I actually like some rap, but no way would I ever go to a rap concert.

[Robert A Cook PE]

Hmmmmmn.

Xsex seems "huggy" today ...

Perhaps she'd prefer the maid too.

[camle]

Oh yes I'll, tell you something,
I think you'll understand.
When I'll say that something
I wanna hork your hand,

Oh please, say to me
You'll let me post my spam
And please, say to me
You'll let me hork your hand.
Now let me hork your hand,
I wanna hork your hand.

And when I hork you I feel happy inside.
It's such a feeling that my love
I can't hide, I can't hide, I can't hide.

Yeah you've, got that something,
I think you'll understand.
When I'll say that something
I wanna hork your hand,

And when I hork you I feel happy inside.
It's such a feeling that my love I can't hide, I can't hide, I can't hide.

Yeh, you've got that something,
I think you'll understand.
When I'll feel that something
I wanna hork your hand,

[camle]

uh oh... XS and the Maid??

ohno!

Sapphire alert! sapphire alert!! sapphire alert!!!

dive!dive!dive!

whoop!whoop!

[Sword_of_Gideon]

While some of it from the early days was not too bad (although a little silly), the majority today simply glorifies crime, drugs, and immorality. People then wonder why the people who listen & flock to hip-hop music are themselves criminals & thugs....what you listen to & immerse yourself in dramatically affects how you live, think, & behave.

[MeekOneGOP]

See? I can even find something useful, even for tommy da$$hole !

[Sword_of_Gideon]

uh oh... XS and the Maid??

To quote a line from the great movie (lol) Robocop.... I'd buy that for a dollar!!!!
