My lean run of writing continued into early March. I still had plenty of material in the show because I had written some corkers over Christmas and into January that were running and running.
This one was about the band Suede which must have been the most heavily hyped band since…
…the previously most heavily hyped band.
Anyway, here is the quickie, which understandably didn’t make the cut.
NEW SUEDE TUNES
(A quickie to the Tune of “Blue Suede Shoes”)
INTRO
And now, the band rock journalists have all been talking about;
The greatest band since………the last band we said was the greatest band;
The band you’ve all been waiting for;
Here they are, the one, the only:
Suede.
THE SONG
Well it’s:
One heap of money,
Two boring shows,
Three all screw the groupie,
Then go catch doses,
So don’t you,
Egg on those new Suede tunes,
Overhype anything,
But stay offa those new Suede tunes.
