I felt ambitious over the weekend and decided to throw together a quick recording of one of my favorite Moxy Fruvoüs songs...enjoy!
-------------------------------------------------
Ditto...(ditto)...(ditto)...(ditto)...
Coming from Canada, we love those leaders who personify the US way to be
There was JFK, and LBJ, and WKRP
But of these there is not one to rival the greatest genius of them all
He's a megalo with a healthy glow
He's the man called Rush Limbaugh
He's a dose of P.T. Barnum
With a Mussolini twist
There in the limousine, parked on the lawn
He's a goofy Gengis Khan
Not since Jesus Christ has the world seen someone
With such widely syndicated views
Hundreds of years from now they'll celebrate Rush-mas
(And Rush-ashana for the Jews)
'Cause he'll pull the plug on femi-nazis, paranoid minorities and gays
He's a burning bush with a network push
Sure to start a country-wide blaze
He taught me to love and praise Charlton Heston
Oliver North is quite a nice man too (at least, that's what they say)
Forget Al and Tipper
Let's bring back the Gipper
And Joe McCarthy too!
I was a troubled soul, consumed by voices advocating special interest groups and vice
'Till Rush rushed to my sweet rescue
Now I'll never ever hafta think twice (never ever hafta think twice...)
So we'll sign a check for Limbaugh-ism
Restore the moral fundamental core
We'll cut the debt
And start a Tet
Offensive on the poor
It's a blitzkrieg in the making
It's distinctly upper-class (well, not everybody!)
Yes, sir, I'll get the door
Roll the carpet on the floor
For a man...
For a man...
For a man...
Such a man...
For a man....
With his head up his...
Ditto! (ditto!) (ditto!) (ditto!)
Ask us the name of the king - it's Rush!

Is this about Shlongy?
----------------------------
No, it says "Greatest man in AMERICA," not "CAMBODIA."

"And the band played on
As the helicopters whirred
Drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn
My senses finally blurred."
Wrong song I know, but thanks for reminding me of some fun tunes.

Moxy Fruvous? I haven't heard that name in a long time. You get hipster points for that.
This was fun to listen to.

Story behind the song: Moxy Fruvoüs, which was a Canadian band in the '90s and early years of this decade, wrote this song while on tour in the USA during '93 and Rush was EVERYWHERE at that time...unavoidable. :)
