Now I desperately want to hear this. No, wait - I desperately want to see the video.
I’m with you.

Band: Dead Kennedys 2.0
Song Title: To Pluck a Duck
Went to a party
I danced all night
I drank 16 Cokes
And I started feeling right
My hair is braided
I hear a cluck
I’m rolling down the stairs
To pluck a duck
To pluck a duck
To pluck a duck
To pluck, a duck
I’ll pluck, I’ll pluck, I’ll pluck
That duck
I like your stories
Love bubblegum
Watching Mrs Doubtfire
Sounds like loads and loads of fun
But in my room
Bright lights overhead
I’ll do my homework
With erasers and lead*
What’s really sad is that I think the remaining Kennedys (who are touring without Jello Biafra) might go along with that.
See, that’s the thing. These kids aren’t crappy. Sure, they’re doing something you don’t like but at least they’re good at it!
The name bothers me. 2.0 implies that this is an upgrade from the original Devo.
All in all, it isn’t too far away from Abba Teens, though they had to comprise their name into A-Teens.
That’s the laugh of the day right there, Mister.
And Mister Seven delivers. Ah, catharsis.
Too cool. One of my co-workers has a little boy who’s 8 now. When he was 3, the first song he learned the lyrics to were “Get Up, Stand Up.” Marley is still his favorite musician.
Of course, that conjures the specter of Marley 2.0. What do you suppose Disney would do to Redemption Song?
