Lyrics

For the Dire Straits fans....[and its half the length of Sultan of Swag!]

Long Gone Writer [Lady Writer]

Long gone writer on the TV
Talks about the world of Tony
World revolves around him too
Copernicus never heard of you yeah

Long gone writer on the TV
Ask for anything for free
Loves to toaster oven cook
Puts old columns out as a book

Just the way that his hair grows only on his face
And he can recall each parking space
From any time, from any place

Long gone writer on the TV
He has emails faxes and your notes
He loves Uranus jokes
Now he’ll read some for all you folks

Just the way that his hair grows only on his face
Raju blamed for his fall from grace
The Browse About’s his final place

Yes he’s a rich old man,
You know Brad Childress is a dead ringer
TKJingles.com
Turns ev’ry fan into a rock singer

[Fade to solo]

    Great minds think alike, Brad. Ours too! I got "Money for Nothing" track at the same time as this and Sultans. And now I have a starter lyric! Yeah!

    You know, I bet you would only have to rewrite a few lyrics to "Money for Nothing (and Your Food for Free") to nail that one. Like this one. Nailed.

    Knopfler is a master, no question. This one is a lesser know DS track, I think, but one of my faves. The "writer on the TV" part hit me and I knew I had to try to jingle-ize it. I'd like to think Tony would like the Copernicus line....
