SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!
The Song Challenge: To write a
song about the following (true) news story -- The cops get a call from a woman
telling them to arrest her husband, who's in a motel room with another woman.
They tell her that although what he's doing is immoral, it's not illegal. Then
she tells them that the husband has a warrant out for his arrest. They check it
out, and sure enough, it's true. The cops go to the motel and knock on the door.
The man goes out the back window and starts to shimmy down a galvanized pipe --
not bothering to put on his clothes! The officer at the bottom of pipe shouts
for the fella to come down. The man looks at the officer and says, 'Who? Me?',
and the officer says 'How many naked guys on pipes do you think I'm talking
to?".
Bad Boys by Jack the Sailor
Jack's Comments: I was going to write more, but I think this says it all . . .
{Chorus}
Bad boys bad boys watchya gonna do
watchya gonna do whenthe come for you
Bad boys bad boys watchya gonna do
watchya gonna do whenthe come for you
Come on in, from, that pipe or we will shoot
You must be cold out there in your birthday suit
Adultery ain't a crime, but you should not do that
Specially when you wife turns out to be a rat
{Chorus}
Bad boys bad boys watchya gonna do
watchya gonna do whenthe come for you
Bad boys bad boys watchya gonna do
watchya gonna do whenthe come for you
