Drove my Chevy to to the levee
But the levee was bi
And them good ol’ boys were talking bout femboy thighs
Singing I just love DEI
“Hey Weird Al, you know that new sound you were lookin for? Well listen to this!”
The Weird Al version of “American Pie” is the only good version.
The best part about that is he didn’t even watch the movie, he just used a plot summary from somebody else and wrote the new lyrics. Hilariously nailing all the major plot points.
Amazing.
Holy shit I never knew that! LOL.
twice divorced and domestic abusing 73 year old boomer [with a 24 year old girlfriend] most famous for writing a eulogy about the “innocence” of the 1950s in the 1970s has Phase IV (Profound Lead Toxicity) rated political takes.
i am shocked.
writing a eulogy about the “innocence”
Creeps like that get off to killing “innocence” over and over again as their personal nonconsenting fetish.
Things just haven’t been the same since the Big Bopper died.
That is a top 5 most horrible song to realize to be entirely unironic
Also anything from Marty Robbins that isn’t about old west rooting tooting
But they sound good :(
If you like the rooting tooting western aspect, may I suggest Cisco Houston? He was a folk singer and Wobbly troubadour from the depression era who sang a bunch of the old cowboy tunes
Nah, not my thing. What I like about these guys is the voice. The lyrics are just silly.
Ok fair, but Cisco has the most buttery smooth voice around! Not trying to convince you to like something you don’t, just have to go to bat for the guy
I mean, he sounds like Woody Guthrie or Pete Seger. Not terrible, but not my first pick.
“Being a bigoted piece of shit will totally bring back the good old days where boomer rock stars got to prey on teenage girls and get celebrated for it. The boomers are older than ever, but the creeping targets must remain the same age.”
This song confused me as a kid so I asked my dad what is was about, he explained who the people in the crash were. But 9/11 had just happened and I was just like oh that’s basically nothing compared to that and he had to admit that was true.
Anyways, death to America
I also don’t know what it’s about and know maybe 10% of the words. What crash?
idk, I think this was a big deal for boomers or something, I know who Big Bopper was because of a joke on Futurama and Buddy Holly because of the Weezer song that was included with Windows 95
Thanks. Yeah I only know Buddy Holly in name only
i drove a chevy, i’m eugene levy, my son fucked a pie
I thought that song was about a plane crash bruh
Yeah not sure what it has to do with “wokism”
I think he’s saying the whole song is meant as a criticism of the 60s counterculture and mourning the end of 50s America, and today’s “wokism” is just an extension of the various sixties movements. He’s nostalgic about driving his truck down to the sock hop with a pink carnation in his suit and then going down to drink with the “good ol’ boys” at the levee. Now Lenin (Lennon) is reading Marx and everything is just too damn political! He directly calls out a bunch of the classic 60s counterculture songs.
“good ol’ boys”
Note: don’t ask how good they were to black people
I guess he has to try to pretend like the song is deeper than it really is, because otherwise he’s gotta admit to himself that there are about three generations alive today who couldn’t care less about The Day The Music Died.
I never liked that song and I hated the 90s brobro asshole movie of the same name even more.
EDIT: The Weird Al Phantom Menace parody pretty legit, though.
“the day the music died” aka 9/11 for cracker music
Killing me softly with his dumbassness
Make like your song and die old man
I HATE SEINFELD BRAIN
I HATE SEINFELD BRAIN
Don Mclean failed to account fo-
"And while Lenin read a book on Marx
The quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died"
The day the bourgeois music got what it deserved
Ugh
Is this the day that you die yet?
