Lyrics

The Deluge of Dan continues....

FM (No Static At All)

Nary a bottle Tony, of grapefruit juice
No fat curd cottage cheese either, there’s no excuse
The stock boys just don’t care what's on
The shelves are just bare c’mon
What are we doin’ out there?
Just had to put that line in this song

Won’t find what you are seeking, they’re out of rice
Won’t find a box of hydrox, tho they taste nice
Just ran into Charles Lane, last night
He wrote shattered glass, that’s right

No groceries at all
No groceries
No groceries at all
Safeway –
No groceries at all

    And speaking of Gretchen Wu, I choose to picture her like this https://www.pinterest.com/pin/18647785927097004/ [And in case Gretchen is reading along, I mean that in the best possible way...]

    Sic transit gloria mundi - but a jingle lasts forever! Or as long as Negrelli's website holds out.

    So, I kinda always hoped my finest moment would sound something like "John Fitzpatrick, world-record PowerBall winner!" but until that happens, that was pretty sweet....
