PONG
We were cavemen
playing Pong
Till Jaye P. Morgan banged a gong
Billie Jean King
beat Bobby Riggs
Killing-all-those male chauvinist-pigs
Son of Sam
came along
So Levon sang the Band’s last song
Peter Frampton came alive
Nadia couldn’t be deprived
And Concordes tore right through the sky
(Bye bye)
Everyone’s invited
To join in on this song
All love’s unrequited
Every game is Pong
We were trading
Baseball cards
While DDT rained in our yards
The Poseidon
Flipped upside down
L.A. collapsed in Sensurround
Squeaky Fromme blew her one shot
Gerald Ford fell down a lot
Patty Hearst finally got caught
(Bye bye)
Everyone’s invited
To join in on this song
All love’s unrequited
Every game is Pong
New York City went flat broke
Brody said we need a bigger boat
Cheech and Chong went up in smoke
(Bye, bye)
Everyone’s invited
To join in on this song
All love’s unrequited
Every game is Pong

HEY MERLIN!
The path to the house -- the path is overgrown
The door swings open -- there is no one home
They say a man lived here many years ago
But what happened to this man no one knows
They say he had -- he had some magic friends
and they all met -- they all met tragic ends
Banished and scattered the wizards died
and now all the legends lie
Hey Merlin, Hey Merlin
don't believe a word they say
Hey Merlin, Hey Merlin
it was worth it anyway
Living backwards in time
Losing your mind
You fall from grace -- fall from grace before you're there
They soil your name -- soil it to protect theirs
All laughter and joking is illegal now
They'd ridicule you but they don't know how

Too Much Joy Scarsdale, New York
TMJ is/was a punk-pop band of some minor renown. Some of that renown was due to their music, which included semi-hits such as “Crush Story,” “Donna Everywhere,” and “That’s a Lie” — a cover of the LL Cool J tune that featured the man himself in the music video, which actually got played quite a bit during daylight hours on MTV back when they did that sort of thing. ... more
