on my desk and came across this one
which I think I'd failed to reply to earlier
on back in 2003...

"Pagliacci" by Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers

"Tchaikovsky" by Lady GaGa
You got a lot of nerve, coming here when I'm still with Tchaikovsky,
And I can't have you, it ain't fair Mr. Mussagorsky
"Nabokov" by Lil Wayne ..
Someone once cited Nobakov's
genius in his description of dog's pee in fresh snow

Cut loose just like Mozart another runner in the night
Blinded by the light "Munch" (commercial)

3 O'clock In The Morning
I'm Getting Ready For Bed
It Came Without A Warning
But I'll Be Waiting For You Mr. Picasso
I'll Be Waiting For You Here! "de Kooning" by Maniac Street Preachers
Libraries gave us power
Then work came and made us free
What price now for a shallow piece of dignity I wish I had a bottle
Right here in my dirty face to wear the scars
To show William De Kooning from whence I came
"Salvador Dali" by the Beatles
Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a Dali he just ..
Thank you driver for getting me here
You'll be an inspector, have no fear
I don't want to cause no fuss
Just cuz William Faulkner is on your bus "Andy Warhol" by Stone Temple Pilots
Andy Warhol, looks a scream,
Hang him on my wall.
Andy Warhol, Pablo Picasso, William Faulkner,
Salvador Dali, Willem DeKooning, Edvard Munch,
Ruggero Pagliacci, Lady GaGa, Mozart, Michaelangelo,
Can't tell them apart at all, they're all just a buncha assholes.

My modligiani does 185
I lost my license now I don't drive
I have a limo ride in the back
I lock the doors in case I'm attacked
Who loved color and who let it show.
Now in the museum what have we here?
The baddest painter since God's Jan Vermeer.
He loved he loved he loved life so bad,
His paintings had twice the color other paintings had.
Anyway, I thnk it's time to take your mind off stuff
and enjoy a deep fried Moon Pie:
