Friday Random Ten

I'm Finally In Front Of The "Choon Box"!

My vacation day today has yielded an additional bonus on top of the sleeping 'til noon and the extended cat torture fur de-tangling session. I finally have my iTunes collection in front of me, and I can have the Shuffle feature pluck out 10 tunes to wave to the world.

I've actually got iTunes on the work PC, in violation of FSM knows how many IT rules & regs that The Man has in place, but it's an extremely abbreviated version of my moosical stash. I'd transfer more tunes but the iPod's flaking out, and I've got better things to do that try and burn 26 GB of music onto CDs.

Anyway, here's the random 10 for Friday. Kudos to Elisson for starting this tradition!



"Don Henley Must Die" by Mojo Nixon

He's a tortured artist
Used to be in the Eagles
Now he whines
Like a wounded beagle!
Poet of despair!
Pumped up with hot air!
He's serious, pretentious
And I just don't care!
Don Henley must die!
Don't let him get back together
With Glenn Frey!
Don Henley must die!

Turn on the TV
And what did I see?
This bloated hairy thing
Winning a Grammy!
Best Rock Vocalist?
Compared to what?
But your pseudo-serious
Crafty semantic Satanic plot
Don Henley must die!
Put a sharp stick in his eye!
Don Henley must die!
Yea yea yea yea yea!

(Hotel California guitar solo)
Quit playin' that crap!
You're out of the band!

I'm only kidding!
Can't you tell?
I love his sensitive music
Idiot poetry, swell!
You and your kind
Are killing rock and roll
It's not because you are O L D
It's cause you ain't got no soul!
Don't be afraid of fun
Loosen up your ponytail!
Be wild, young, free and dumb
Get your head out of your tail!
Don Henley must die!
Don't let him get back together
With Glenn Frey!

Don Henley must die!
Put him in the electric chair
Watch him fry!
Don Henley must die!
Don Henley must die!
Yea yea yea yea yea!
No Eagles reunion!
The same goes for you too, Sting!
