Name That Tune
Even though I don't have the same obsession with music that most of my peers appear to have, I was having a shufty through my wax disc collection last night and it really cheered me up. You see, I came across that Dead Kennedys classic "Too Drunk To Fuck". What a title! It raised a smile and then got me thinking of other greats, the top of the pile surely being the country and western anthem "You're The Reason Our Kids Are So Ugly".
C&W has always been a rich vein for such gems but I would be interested to hear of any brilliant numbers which deserve to be listed among the world's top ten titles.
In the meantime, how about these other little slices of genius which all helped to put the "cunt" in "country music"? (I have labelled my particular favourites with a *):
It's Hard to Kiss the Lips at Night that Chew Your Ass Out All Day Long
I Can't Get Over You, So Why Don't You Get Under Me?
All My Exes Live in Texas
Saddle Up the Stove, Ma, I'm Riding the Range Tonight *
If the Phone Don't Ring, It's Me Not Calling You Up
Get Your Tongue Outta My Mouth 'Cause I'm Kissing You Goodbye *
(Pardon Me) I've Got Someone To Kill *
Her teeth Were Stained, But Her Heart was Pure
Just Bought a Car From a Guy That Stole my Girl, but the Car Don't Run, So I Figure We Got an Even Deal
At the Gas Station of Love, I Got the Self-Service Pump
How Come Your Dog Don't Bite Nobody But Me? *
If I Can't Be Number One In Your Life, Then Number Two On You
If I Had Shot You When I Wanted To, I'd Be Out By Now *
I Wish I Were a Woman (So I Could Go Out With a Guy Like Me)
I Would Have Wrote You a Letter, But I Couldn't Spell Yuck!
If You Can't Live Without Me, Why Aren't You Dead Yet?
Would Jesus Wear A Rolex On His Television Show?
Mama, Get The Hammer (There's A Fly On Papa's Head) *
Gave Her My Heart and a Diamond And She Clubbed Me With a Spade
I Don't Know Whether To Kill Myself Or Go Bowling *
If Whiskey Were A Woman I'd Be Married For Sure
Still Miss You Baby, But My Aim's Gettin' Better *
I Wouldn't Take Her To a Dog Fight, Cause I'm Afraid She'd Win
Velcro Arms, Teflon Heart
Your Negligee Has Turned To a Flannel Nightgown
I'll Marry You Tomorrow But Let's Honeymoon Tonight
How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away? **********
I'd Rather Pass a Kidney Stone than Another Night With You
Why Do You Believe Me When I Tell You That I Love You When You Know I've Been A Liar All My Life?
Come Out of the Wheatfield Nelly, You're Going Against the Grain
My Wife Ran Off With My Best Friend And I Sure Do Miss Him
She Got The Ring And I Got The Finger
She Offered Her Honor, He Honored Her Offer, and All Through the Night it Was Honor and Offer
Get Your Biscuits In The Oven And Your Buns In Bed
(For those who are interested, the winner of the "Who Goes Over The Side?" lifeboat poll was..............that cunt I used to work with..........Graham Barfoot! Hurrah! What a twat! If you're reading this, Graham, go fuck yourself!)

SHORTS DON'T MATTER! 1.
From the greatest programme ever made about association football, Barnstoneworth United FC manager Mr Dainty delivers one of the finest English soliloqiues of all time.......and afterwards, spare a thought for the club steward's wife Vera (YOU ONLY HAVE TO WATCH HALF OF THE CLIP!!).

Not everyone who agonises over their life is a painter. Some of us agonise because we're NOT painters.
....And On the Subject of Great Public Services
I know most of you have heard this marvellous song by those doctors who are the Amateur Transplants......but I think the video is a nice addition. P.S. If there are kids in the room I'd shuffle them out before hitting play.
...There's More
On the subject of those great doctors, here is their version of More Than Words which presents their challenging views on women outside Watford. The very-soon-to-be ex-Mrs Pither, coming from Cumbria, is a huge fan. Again, get those kids out of the room!
Leave Britney Alone, Ok!!!
Oh...........my............God!!!!!
My heartfelt thanks go to BGT for this. I won't say much more, I don't need to. Mr Loony of Loonytown, USA (I think it's a bloke, anyway), says it all. I fear he may be wound too tight for.....well.....well for everywhere, really!

I wish I'd sung this!
For non-Americans, and with apologies to all the smart arses out there who already knew, the FCC is the Federal Communications Commission and it monitors TV and radio output in the States - a sort of broadcast police - while the EPA is the Yanks' so-called Environmental Protection Agency, a body which does exactly the opposite of what it says on the can.
(P.S. We went to the same school, you know? Eric and me, that is, not George, Martha, Dick and Condoleeza and me. I don't think they went to school.)
P.P.S. Please see below if you are I Like The View, Malc or Doris.
To Make You Laugh and Cry
I was listening to this on a Sunday, the very-soon-to-be ex-Mrs Pither is a Catholic, Tom Lehrer is one of my all-time heroes and this is one of his best.............no other reasons.
On a more sombre note (and with thanks to Fish for coming up with this Woman's-Own-passes-the-time-in-the-dentist's-waiting-room nonsense), why not get a computer to tell you that you are a waste of space and your life is a sham of a mockery of a farce? Ok, it's from one of those poxy dating sites but...go on, take the test. You ain't got much to beat!!
Apparently, in my case, "computer say 'no!'"

I First Saw This When I Was Little - And Loved It! I Hope That Explains a Few Things
Fuck, Fuckety, Fuck, Fuck, Fuck
It has been pointed out to me that, particularly for one whose profession is supposedly literary, my language is getting worse. My use of the "F" word is, I am told, far too prevalent and hence loses impact.
To those who share this view I suggest you watch the following:
Tony Blair Isn't a Burglar - But If He Was.........
In the spirit of Gustav Holst's Jupiter and Manfred Mann's Earth Band, I feel like raising a smile today.
The Big Green Thing alerted me to this and, for no other reason than to raise a smile on an otherwise crap Wednesday, I think it has to be shared.
Grantham shall not have him - when he gets out of prison.
Life On The Edge - No Net.
I was wrong when I feared it might be a dull weekend, what with my pals being away, my soon-to-be ex-wife in rehab and only the dogs to play with. How wrong can a man be? This much fun must surely be illegal?
Just click to see the japes and hoots I am having!

Be honest........
Who fucking cares!!
