UNCLE WATSON WANTS TO THINK
Uncle Watson wants to think
So please leave him alone
Go and play outside
Come back when you're grown
Uncle Watson wants to think
Can you help him understand
Why nothing ever comes
Of anything he's planned
We're not really related
He's just my mother's friend
Men like Uncle Watson
Will destroy us in the end
Uncle Watson likes his scotch
Takes his first drink at noon
Well before the sun sets
He'll be shouting at the moon
Uncle Watson went to war
Uncounted years ago
He never says what he did
Just says, You don't wanna know
We're not really related
He's just my mother's friend
Men like Uncle Watson
Will destroy us in the end
Uncle Watson has been known
When I forget my place
To rise up in a rage
And suddenly punch me in my face
Uncle Watson gets confused
In truth he is quite dim
His one unquestioned skill
Is making others just like him

The Glory of Badminton

THE GLORY OF BADMINTON
everybody needs a backyard
every backyard needs a dog
mine has a fancy collar
ordered from a catalog
sometimes I get so hopeless
sometimes I'm just appalled
today I'm barbecuing
and playing basketball
and tomorrow I'll forget again
how good I feel today
and I'll doubt it ever happened
and that's OK
now we're sitting round the table
and we're remembering when
and we're laughing but it's bitter
'cause it's just a specimen
if I woke up tomorrow
and I had a different name
would you love me louder
would you love me just the same?
cuz the glory of badminton
will always be outweighed
by the smallest inconvenience
and that's OK

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
