"FReep On!!"

EX-Prez'dent's Slime...HildaBeast, how Slick fears her.
All these lies, but the Truth's gettin' clearer...
Slick Willie's SCUM!!
Bill, yer SLime!...You've lied, now be gone...
Isn't that the way? Can anybody trust the foolish words you saayyyyy?
Yeah...I know nobody knows why you strayed, but you must go!!
We know Lib'rals believe, those fools ain't gotta clue... they'll learn!!

All Bill's life's been a joke that enrages...
Bought and sold by Commies from Asia!
You know it's true...
Sliiiickkk...all these crimes lead back to you...
Folks, sing with me, no need to fear,
With all these scandals, Slick'll do ten years!
Sing with me, we'll win the day,
No need for sorrow, the Good Lord'll make Bill pay...
Ayy-yeahhh...

Yeah...sing with me, don't shed no tears,
Sing for your daughters, make sure Slick hears!!
Sing with me, fight for the day...
Ignore TeeVee polls, Good FReepers'll put Bill away-ay-ay-ay.

"Vile Corruption"
(To be sung to Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion")

Vi-i-ile corru-u-uption...Re-e-eno-o's obstru-u-uctin'...
I sing about Slick, seems nobody cares...
Writing these songs, but nobody hears.
You can say I ain't sane, but I wanna make clear,
That scumbag, Willie, Slick's Dethronement's Near!!

Slick's a sweet-talkin' Lib'ral with a Socialist bent,
But his power base's gone...China money's all spent!
Well, it ain't really news, Bill's a real good liar...
But with Chris Cox's Report...Clinton's term will expire!

Re-e-eno's obstru-u-uctin'...vi-i-ile corru-u-uption...
Slick's pulled no punches attackin' Ken Starr,
Jim Carville said, "We fight dirty...'cuz this here's WAR!"
Bill's springin' them leaks, 'cuz he's tryin' to hide...
The obscene extent to which Slick's folks have spied!
Tyranny!!!!!!

So you say we oughtta just give Bill a pass...
But Slick ain't a King...that's why we kicked Britain's ass!
That Billzabubba, he's a very bad man...
But Mudboy's on his case...Clinton doesn't stand a chance!! Oww!!!!

FReegards...MUD

MUD, you have a gifted talent for crafting prose. I've always delighted in your work.

Can you sit down without the music and create a song?

That's the next step.

Lyric writers are GOLDEN!!!! Seriously, any knuckle dragging nitwit with lots of time to kill and a guitar in hand can invent a smart chord ditty.

Nobody can write compelling words, and nobody can sing with soul and charisma. That's the ticket in the music biz .... voice and story.

Think of the great songwriters ... "The screen door slams ... Mary's dress waves. Like a vision she dances across the floor while the radio plays ..." I'll bet it took Springsteen three weeks, on and off, to find that opening volley ... he had Bittans piano and the Thunder Road bombast set, but the start was crucial and elusive. Bob Seger used to change his first stanza repeatedly in the studio ... it's knowing how to start, and knowing when to end. Dickens had it.

Bernie Taupin used to write lyrics and mail them across England to Elton John. Think of this construct .... "It's getting late, have you seen my mates? Ma tell me when the boys get here ... it's seven o'clock and I want to rock, gonna get a belly full of beer."

What presentation did he imagine when he wrote that? Or any of that Goodbye Yellow Brick Road stuff? What did he think when he heard the musical delivery? I'm amazed by Taupins talent, he's like a cockney Shel Silversteen. All the young girls love Alice you say? LOL

Elton John has said from day one it's far easier for him to put music to words than for him to craft lyrics to his melodic inventions. I agree. Country singers work on lyrics, jazz guys on the tune. Each struggles mightally when faced with a blank sheet of paper. Vince Gill has 50 sweet intros in his arsenal, but none of them work till the yak meets the music. What a daunting career.

I like Warren Zevon, Dave Alvin, Donald Fagan, Nick Lowe, Mark Knopfler and Don Henly as writers. I give Janis Ian an 85, because "Seventeen" is easy to dance to.
