Summary

June 14, 2015: Serve a dish cold? Fahgeddaboudit! Nothing beats a brand new hot creation for venting one's veritable vexation. Listeners of a certain age will immediately recognize the "Ad Lib"ing vehicle, but I take this parody out for a very different spin here. My arrangement / performance is 100% original; my lyrics are 180-degrees in an opposite direction and across the Hudson River. While their cute NYC boy was "the most" from coast to coast, this clueless dude in Joizy is the least of the least from west to east. Been a while since I've produced so many layers for a piece, and I find the effort is always as personally rewarding as it is tedious. Pleased with some of the music phrases I created for the horns (and word phrases for the horn-dawg), and hope something here pleases you as well. xxxooo Performed, recorded, arranged and produced with lyrics by Kathleen Martin. Parody based on melody of Ad Libs' "Boy from NYC." Graphic art concept and design by JT Lindroos. Major Melon Farmer (Airing Off the Side of Caution) [Similarity to any person living (yet dead inside) is no coincidence] Refrain: It's a doo-wop doo-wop doo-wop ditty Of a major melon farmer in Jersey City A doo-wop doo-wop doo-wop ditty Of a major melon farmer in Jersey City His form is free of diversity Couldn't care less for gender parity It really bites, it's just not right Mostly men of middle age and mainly white Ewww what an ego from Newark to Oswego! He calls the shots across megawatts [Refrain] He thinks he's hip, but he's a dip Who's traveling on a petty power trip It's such a shame he shirks all blame And breaks the rules to always win the game Ewww what an ego! He's no one's true amigo When in the grip of his power trip He pilfered public money To build a vanity Hall For disclosing his full Monty Entertaining none at all. ("Tell me whyyyyy you're so vain!") [Refrain] He's such a troll. He has no soul. Wouldn't touch him with a 10-foot pole In his "mo' hair" suit, he's never cute 'Cause his birthday suit is LOL hirsute Ewww what an ego from Brooklyn to Oswego! He has no taste, an airwaves waste [Over the Refrain] He is the least From west to east. He thinks he's cool, But he's a tool. He's just a jerk At play or work. He's such a putz! He's really nuts.
