Heh. Here's an old one:



We've seen him playing in the sun
At festivals of beer and fun
He didn't care what time it was
He'd just keep playing for the cause

Is he out or is he in?
Is his playing just a din?
Turning up and burning out
While subverting from within

His course determined by All Stars
His momma's Uncle Sam's on Mars
His spiky suit appeared to glow
As lighted saxophone he'd blow

Is he out or is he in?
Is his playing just a din?
Turning up and burning out
While subverting from within

His band's name changes with the tide
He often joins in for the ride
In costumes that are all home-made
With psychedelic coloured shades

His ad-libbing conciously
With continual frequency
Would often others irritate
And in the end would seal his fate

Is he out or is he in?
Is his playing just a din?
Turning up and burning out
While subverting from within
