I'm jr From Canada and Your Not

I was racking my brain for songs that mention Boom, but aside from John Lee Hooker's Boom Boom Boom Boom, which is too cool to invoke here, the following is all I could think of. Choose Life and all that ...

Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!

You put the boom-boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts
Jitterbug into my brain, Yeah! Yeah!
Goes a bang-bang-bang 'til my feet do the same
But something's bugging you
Something ain't right
My best friend told me what you did last night
Left me sleepin' in my bed
I was dreaming, but I should have been with you instead.

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that HIGH! (yeah, yeah)

You take the clubbed seals out of my way
You make your love purer than Peter King's ass cavity
Turned a Maple Leaf into a flame
Ten John Kerry pix per minute, it's always the same
'Cuz your my lady, I'm yor foole
It makes me crazy when you act so creul
Come on, baby, let's not fight
We'll go dancing, everything will be all right!

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plainnin'' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah, baby)

Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!

Cuddle up, BigDog, move in tight
We'll go dancing tomorrow night
It's cold out there, but it's warm in bed
They can dance, we'll stay home instead!

Jitterbug!

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
Wake me up before you go-go, don't you dare to leave me hanging on like a
yo-yo
Take me dancing ...
Boom, boom, boom ...



Wham! Bam! Thank You, Man!: BigDog (left) and Boom enjoy the halcyon days of Wham!, circa 1985. It is a little known fact that the erstwhile BigDog and Boom intended the band name to be a verb.

 

You should be hanged for making us revisit the imagery of Michael and Ridgely in John Stockton shorts. :-X

 

"Your not"?

Further proof that Boom, a guy I actually once liked, is barely literate.

 

No, Junkie, he's not talking about your favorite magazine and dating preference.

 

Hey, that's a quality magazine.

 

And so a day which began with the exhuming of Bandwagon Boy, now ends with 21 googling the lyrics to I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles, and deciding to let Boom handle this one in the morning.

It's a silly message board, jr...it's okay to laugh once in a while.

 

I think that's the mag that Paul Giamatti bought in Sideways, zeke.

 

Uhhh, that doesn't even break the top 1,000 of things that entered my mind, but if that's the image that entered yours, I'm cool with your lifestyle choice.

 

Hey, doesn't make me a bad person.

 

True that, and I'm as guilty as anyone of bringing the mood down. Better break into my SportsJournalists.com boosticks again ...

I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles ... can't think of one objection to that.

 

I'm not drinking any fucking merlot!

 

Now that you've been cured of that flaw, we can begin work on your unfortunate affinity for the Liberal Party of Canada. ;D
