ERA: Don't Blame Republicans, Blame KIZZ

Slipknot, GWAR, and Marilyn Manson, step a bit aside. You aiming for overt shock value? Oh so pedestrian. Twenty-five years ago Kizz was slapping this stuff on lunchboxes and selling it to seven year olds. There's some sort of (perverted) genius in there -- by the end of the 70s they were almost selling stuff under the guise of family fun. And oh what fun (a sampling of 6 songs from just one album):

Put your hand in my pocket
Grab onto my rocket
*
So if you please get on your knees
There are no bills, there are no fees
*
Meet, meet you in the ladies room
For my money, you can't be too soon
*
Go baby driver
Ooh, what a rider
*
You wanna sit in my driver's seat
If you do it's alright with me
Love 'em, leave 'em
*
You try pleasin', but gettin' on your knees don't make it
You try teasin', but baby you can't even fake it, no

Writing about what I want to write about instead of just writing about it:

While waiting for life that sucks to die, why not listen to my favorite unsigned bands: TQ's Garage Band Playlist.
