Lyrics

Kj, gettin' it done! My eternal thanks to the tkjingles' diva, Kjerstin Ohnstad, for killing it on my little ditty

Emails have come to this
I wear boxers, never briefs
I prefer bagels with cream cheese
My dog often sleeps on the sofa

Some of them try to amuse you
Some of them haven't got a clue
Some of them try to confuse you
Some of them seem to be confused

Emails have come to this
My friend Hank is really tall
I purchase my shoes at a shopping mall
As if my lunch weren't pointless enough

A parody of The Eurhythmics, "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)"

    When it comes to creating the Mount Rushmore of jingles this will, at the very least, join the conversation!!

    Fair enough; and they make EXCELLENT jingle fodder!

    For the record, I find the short-form emails to be sneaky amusing & would be ok if they were occasionally inserted between the likes of Mike in Burke, Carla Corrotto, Cromwell, etc, etc, etc. I love the way the gang laughs when they are read.

    I had one more ANTI-NEW WAVE MAILBAG jingle, recorded last week, that now I feel I must either rewrite or trash. Credit to both of you for that, too! Haha....

    Ah man, what's going on? Where's the swag?

    Here's what I know: when Kj sings a jingle I write, they PLAY IT. Still no swag, though....
