Whoa baby, how I love you
Mad as I think you are
Guess you think I'm crazy too
But mad, mad me, I love you

Here Comes The Judge - Pigmeat Markham (1968)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRS62nc ... rt_radio=1

[Intro: Pigmeat Markham]
Hear ye, hear ye
This court is now in session
His honor Judge Pigmeat Markham residing...

[Verse 1]
Hear ye, hear ye, the court of swing
Is just about ready to do that thing
I don't want no tears, I don't want no lies
Above all, I don't want no alibis
This judge is hip, and that ain't all
He'll give you time if you're big or small
Fall in line, a-this court is neat
Peace, brotha....

[Chorus: the courtroom]
Uh-oh, here come the Judge, here come the Judge
Everybody know that he is the judge

[Verse 2]
Everybody, near and far
I'm going to Paris, to stop this war
All those kids gotta listen to me
'Cause I am the judge, and you can plainly see
I want a big, round table when I get there
I won't sit down until ones are square
I'm gonna lay down the law, they bet'not budge
I bust some heads because I am the judge

[Chorus: the courtroom]
He is the judge, he is the judge
Everybody know that he is the judge

[Interlude 1]
*Music stops, snare drum imitates knock*

Man: Who's there
Judge: Eyes
Man: 'Eyes' who?
Judge: Eyes your next-door neighbor

*Courtroom laughs, Judge bangs gavel*

Judge: Order, order in this courtroom
Woman: Judge, your honorship
Hi, sir
Did I hear you say, "Order in the court"?
Judge: Yes, I said, "Order"
Woman: Well, I'll take two cans of beer, please

*Music continues*

[Chorus: the courtroom]
He is the judge, he is the judge
Everybody know that he is the judge
[Verse 3]
I had a chat with Ho Chi Minh
Sipped rice wine and chasin' my gin
Won't take long as I missed my guest
I'll have you outta this doggone mess
I send a cable to Ball & Mack
Let them know I'm coming back
Sit right there with Rock and Nicks
Teach them boys some of Pigmeat's tricks

[Interlude 2]
*Music stops*

Man: Uh, uh, judge, your honor Pigmeat, sir
Don't you remember me?
Judge: No, who are you boy?
Man: Why, I'm the fella that introduced you to your wife
Judge: To my wife?
Man: Yeah
Judge: Life, you son of a gun, you

*Laughter in courtroom, music continues*

[Bridge]
Come November election time
You vote your way, I'll vote mine
Cases are tied, and money get spent
Vote for Pigmeat Markham president
[Chorus, The Judge & the courtroom]
I am the judge, I am the judge
Everybody know that I am the judge
(We want Pigmeat, we want Pigmeat)
I am the judge, I am the judge
(Everybody know that he is the judge)

[Outro]
Now, everybody know I am the judge

I met a girl
Snowball in hell
She was scarred
And as cracked as the Liberty Bell

Downtown they got some guy
Shot forty-seven people on a PCP high
Uptown they got a team from Queens
Busy beating people through a mean machine, yeow

You had a shot at a thing called love
In the Hollywood hills
You can't help but follow that love
Even if it kills

Now when I was a young man I carried me pack, and I lived the free life of a rover
From the Murray's green basin to the dusty outback, well, I waltzed my Matilda all over
Then in 1915, my country said son, it's time you stopped rambling, there's work to be done
So they gave me a tin hat, and they gave me a gun, and they marched me away to the war

And the band played Waltzing Matilda, as the ship pulled away from the Quay
And amidst all the cheers, the flag-waving and tears, we sailed off for Gallipoli

And how well I remember that terrible day, how our blood stained the sand and the water
And of how in that hell that they called Suvla Bay, we were butchered like lambs at the slaughter
Johnny Turk he was waiting, he'd primed himself well, he showered us with bullets
And he rained us with shell, and in five minutes flat, he'd blown us all straight to hell
Nearly blew us right back to Australia

But the band played Waltzing Matilda, when we stopped to bury our slain
We buried ours, and the Turks buried theirs, then we started all over again

And those that were left, well we tried to survive, in that mad world of blood, death and fire
And for ten weary weeks I kept myself alive, though around me the corpses piled higher
Then a big Turkish shell knocked me arse over head, and when I woke up in my hospital bed
And saw what it had done, well I wished I was dead: never knew there was worse things than dyin'

For I'll go no more waltzing Matilda, all around the green bush far and free
To hang tent and pegs, a man needs both legs-no more waltzing Matilda for me

So they gathered the crippled, the wounded, the maimed, and they shipped us back home to Australia
The legless, the armless, the blind, the insane, those proud wounded heroes of Suvla
And as our ship pulled into Circular Quay, I looked at the place where me legs used to be
And thanked Christ there was nobody waiting for me, to grieve, to mourn, and to pity

But the band played Waltzing Matilda, as they carried us down the gangway
But nobody cheered, they just stood and stared, then they turned all their faces away

And so now every April, I sit on me porch, and I watch the parades pass before me
And I see my old comrades, how proudly they march, reviving old dreams of past glories
And the old men march slowly, old bones stiff and sore, the forgotten heroes of a forgotten war
And the young people ask, what are they marching for? ...and I ask myself the same question

But the band plays Waltzing Matilda, and the old men still answer the call
But as year follows year, more old men disappear, someday no one will march there at all

"Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda, who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?
And their ghosts may be heard as they march by that billabong, who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"

James Brown … Perfection Tyrant.

The musing, the musable, amusing:

On the one hand, st(r)ay a hair from the groove and the number ain’t perfect.
On the other hand, there ain’t no wrong notes in that instrument.

The first cut won't hurt at all
The second only makes you wonder
The third will have you on your knees
You start bleeding I start screaming

Just don't tell me which way I oughta run
Or what good I could do anyone
'Cause my heart it was a gun
But it's unloaded now
So don't bother
