So the coolest music you’ve ever heard starts playing, and starts building and building, to the point where you’re ready for a ’70s-style action hero so damn cool he’d make Sean Connery look like Roger Moore; and, finally, the lyrics start to tell the story: _Who’s the black private dick that’s a sex machine to all the chicks?_ **JOHN!** _You’re damn right! Who is the man that would risk his neck for his brother man?_ **JOHN!** _Can you dig it? Who’s the cat that won’t cop out when there’s danger all about?_ **JOHN!** _Right on! They say this cat John is a baaad mother…_ **SHUT YOUR MOUTH!** _But I’m talkin’ 'bout John!_ **THEN WE CAN DIG IT!** ---
