the moonbats of lawrence

[with apologies to Warren Zevon. For Josh.]

I saw a moonbat with a “Bush = Hitler” sign in his hand
Walkin’ through the streets of Lawrence in the rain
He was looking for the place called Free State Brewery
Gonna get a big dish of free-range chicken

Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOO…
Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOO…

I saw a homeless guy outside Mike Amyx’s house
Pinchin’ a loaf in his driveway*
Saw a bunch of lesbians and Wiccans marchin’ down Mass. Street
Moonbats of Lawrence again*

Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOO…
Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOO…

I saw Boog Highberger at Wheatfield’s café
Doin’ the ‘Moonbats of Lawrence’ again
I said “How about a cup of fair-trade coffee?”
He was higher than a Boeing 707

Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOO…
Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOO…

Well, I saw Scott Rothschild at Free State Brewery, doin’ the ‘Moonbats of Lawrence’
I saw Jon Niccum at Free State Brewery, ‘Moonbats of Lawrence’ again
I saw Josh Rosenau drinkin’ a pina colada Cosmopolitan at Free State
And his hair was perfect messy and unkempt

Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOO…
Ah-HOOOOOOmoonbats of Lawrence
Ah-HOOOOOOOOO… (repeat chorus and fade)

*Based on true stories.

  1. You misspeeeled “Ad Astra” as “Cosmopolitan.”

    Also “messy and unkempt” is spelt “thinning.”

    Thank you, though.


  2. Bitter disappointment at not getting a namecheck.


  3. Josh: Good to see a sense of humor still exists in this world.

    Joel: In case you hadn’t noticed, all of that stuff about traffic/media noticing me etc.. was a joke.

    (Unless, of course, you are making your own joke. In which case, never mind.)


  4. Oh yeah, and ahhHOOOOOOOO…..
