Listening to Sirius radio tonight and this song came on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSEUlh-UGdo
lyrics:
Pretty soon now
I know I'm gonna make a comeback
And like the birds and the bees in the trees
It's a sure-fire smash
I'll speak
To the masses throughout the media
And if you got anything to say to me
You can say it with cash
'Cause I got the trash and you got the cash
So baby we should get along fine
So give me all your money
Cause I know you think I'm funny
Can't you hear me laughing
Can't you see me smile
I'm the man
I'm the man that gave you the hula-hoop
I'm the man
I'm the man that gave you the yo-yo
Kung fu
That was one of my good ones
Well what's a few broken bones
When we all know it's good clean fun
Skateboards
I've almost made them respectable
You see I can't always get through to you
So I go for your son
I had a giant rubber shark
And it really made a mark
Didja looka looka lookit alla blood
Give me all your money
Cause I know you think I'm funny
Can't you hear me laughing
Can't you see me smile
I'm the man
I'm the man that gave you the hula-hoop
I'm the man
I'm the man that gave you the yo-yo
Right now
I think I'm gonna plan a new trend
Because the line on the graph's getting low
And we can't have that
And you think you're immune
But I can sell you anything
Anything from a thin safety pin
To a pork pie hat
Cause I got the trash and you got the cash
So baby we should get along fine
So give me all your money
Cause I know you think I'm funny
Can't you hear me laughing
Can't you see me smile
I'm the man
I'm the man that gave you the hula-hoop
I'm the man
I'm the man that gave you the yo-yo
I could only think about the phantom that was GottaPeso and if our interactions actually happened! A finer human being, who only wanted to catch a
smile from a passerby-er, there never was! Where didja go Joe DiMaggio?

Great punk/new wave number by Joe Jackson, realeased around 1979. His take on how the "new wave movement" would go to just another commercial pop
moneymaker.
"It's still rock and roll to me".....Billy Joel
"Everyone in this room is wearing a uniform...don't kid yourself"
Frank Zappa

He last mentioned something to me about having to go take account of some of his gold bar stashes and visiting his Villa in Brasil.......
I have no doubt he has more treasure hidden somewhere.
I feel fortunate that he shared so much of it with me and the Fam
