Lyrics

Inspired by Jerry's duet prodcast last week http://tkjingles.com/podcast/TKJinglesPodcast20151022.mp3
I teamed with the incomparable® Rob Berg and skewered the shenanigans going on down at the University of Louisville. I mean, they ain't Monkey University but they should have some standards.

You say debasement I say debauchery
You say amazement I say adultery

Pitino, Petrino, Petrino, Pitino
Let's call the whole thing off

You say an accident I say cheating
You say entanglement I say divorce proceedings

Pitino, Petrino, Petrino, Pitino
Let's call the whole thing off

You say hospitality I say kerfuffle
You say a dormitory I say a brothel

Pitino, Petrino, Petrino, Pitino
Let's call the whole thing off

You say recruitment I say delusion
Your say amusement I say prostitution

Pitino, Petrino, Petrino, Pitino
Let's call the whole thing off
Let's call the whole thing off

    As a Louisville native and UofL alum, all I can say is . . . well played. This is fantastic!

    Really funny. Great job guys. I heard Jay Bilas say he was always really impressed with the wingspan of the recruits at Monkey U.

    Rob, great pleasure getting a little bit of your time on this jingle. I'm only sorry my accent veered dangerously close to Foghorn Leghorn territory during the spoken bits. Boy, I said, Boy...

    as far as monkey "entertainment" goes, the "hospitality" committee doesn't ask for any funds whatsoever. though sometimes you WILL find some of them picking nits, gnats, and other pests from several bodily regions, and then eating them, obviously...which I suppose could constitute snacks but these benefits are not illegal. our compliance officer has already looked into it.

    steve, the Pitino/Petrino angle coupled with this song and their "issues" was a brilliant combination on your part. thanks again for asking me to be in on it.

    The ones that are prostitutes are the ones that bill you. I mean, a friend told me that...

    If everyone in the room has a colorful butt, how can you tell which ones are the prostitutes?

    I'm hoping to send my kid on a campus visit to Monkey U Rob - do you arrange the hookers or do you have someone who does that for you?

    on behalf of Monkey University, I feel insulted that you would even put them in the same sentence as Louisville, Steve.
