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 © & ℗ 2020 People Suck Music

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 © & ℗ 2020 People Suck Music

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
