Lyrics

Here's one that's exclusive to TK Jingles (No point in submitting anything over 1:10 unless it's otherworldly). And SHAME on every female jingler that I'M the one first to cover Whitney Houston.


I believe that children are a nuisance
Teach them well to stay out of my way
Can’t you see I’m choosing clubs to make this drive?
Why did I agree to this charity?
Now I have to stand here and listen to their yammering

I decided long ago, charity events were nothing but trouble
Some strange guy wants to be my friend
but he proves he’s a bore before ten minutes in
They show up expecting a steak for free
And their kid won’t shut up about RG3
Because the greatest scam of all
Is playing golf with me
Thinking that six thousand bucks
Could somehow make a friend with me

This dentist won’t shut up!
Why’s this happening to me?
If he gets into my cart I’m gonna ram the thing into a tree

    Thing is, today's email wasn't even the funny email. Yesterday I sent something in expounding on the lost opportunity for Torrie Clarke to have placed her famous decapitated rabbit's head on a tiny spike in front of her garden gnomes to send the right message to enterprising lawn chatchkies in her neighborhood. And THAT goldmine didn't get read with Torrie in studio. Bah!

    I love that scene, so most definitely. That mic drop at the end. I had never thought about connecting Joe the Policeman from the What's Going Down episode of That's My Mama with those Rick James stories... Amazing. And cocaine...

    By the way, Jason, go back and YouTube the Sexual Chocolate scene, bearing in mind Charlie Murphy'so stories about Rick as dramatised on the Dave Chapelle show

    When it comes to a male singing this song, Rob, my inspiration is Randy Watson and Sexual Chocolate from "Coming To America".
