The window lickers went on strike yesterday. I was too sexy for their shirts...too sexy for my shirt...but not too sexy for my Kia. And they didn't like that I wore my sunglasses at night while driving my Little Red Corvette. So they jammed to Panama and told me they were coming back to get me. One window licker pulled his tongue off of the windshield and screamed, "If I had a photograph of you...there would be something to remind me..." So, with a Rebel Yell I hollered back, "I want more, more, more! And I will shake you all night long!" So I jammed in my fast machine that I keep the motor clean, and it looks like I will be dancing with myself for awhile. This situation is spinning right 'round...like a record baby...'round, 'round. You don't mess with a missionary man! I know, I know. I hear you dudes - I need to relax and don't do it, but what if I want to go through it?
The shortbusians need to know that I am the king of rock, there is none higher, and all their MC's will call me sire...and that to rock my kingdom they must use fire, cause I won't stop rock'in 'til I retire! Until then, they can listen to me on the Mexican Radio as they drive to Panama, and listen in stereo. Besides, they all wear pink and live in pink houses. I know they look pretty in pink, and I tell them all of the time "dudes, what I like about you, is that you are the sultans of swing. But I wear my sunglasses at night because you freaks are blinding me with science."
Chief window licker stopped the car and pulled out a sledgehammer, she is a goody two shoes, but had a look in her eyes that creeped me out. I think she was thinking about burning down the house. She came at me with pure energy, while turning Japanese. One dude turned up the radio, and chief let out a war cry. She howled, "We're not gonna take! No! We ain't gonna take it anymore!" She was coming so fast at me I thought, "If she hits me, it will cut like a knife, and I wouldn't have the reflex to take these broken wings (I fell earlier in the day on my arms), and bang a gong and get it on." But I did notice that she was a pretty woman, and I thought, "She's got legs..." And as fast as she was running at me with her sledgehammer, I also thought, "And she knows how to use them..."
In conclusion, I grabbed the little mite, unleashed some TNT on her, and said, "I will rock you like a hurricane dude! I would walk 500 miles on your forehead and toss you under the last train to Clarksville! You are now loosing your religion and there ain't no sunshine when she's gone, there ain't no mountain high enough for you to be safe! Ya dig, der kommisar?"
So they turned and went their way, and I my way. we crossed a bridge over troubled waters and will get back to normal soon. Man, everybody wants to rule the world, they want to be their own personal Jesus. We took one last look at each other I, as I smiled at her, I said, "Hey chief, good girls don't...got it." I think her name is Roxanne.
