Whoa, this is spooky.. My college roommate, Garrence, wrote a song titled Tape Worm which was essentially the same 2 chord, no story crud-song.
Here it is, with my sincerest aplogies to Gar.
Tape Worm
G E
I I I I I, I I I I I, I, I, I, I, got tape worm.
(repeat as necessary)

HAHAHAHAHA ow.
Does this mean I have it on my face?

Ooops, you are not supposed to change to an "E" until you reach the "tape worm" lyric.
*as if it matters*

"WHEN SOME LOUD BRAGGART TRIES TO"
Thought that was from Beach Boys "Be True to Your School"

holy shit. that was awesome.

This one is actually pretty good.

Sounds much more like Neil Young.
And did you know that ringworm has nothing to do with worms? It's a skin fungus, often spread by cuddling with cats.
Please don't ask me how I know this.

Are we sure these aren't outtakes from Spinal Tap?

innocbystr: Welcome to the Geezer Bus! You come right over here and sit by me.
I think it sounded more like Neil Young, too - mostly because Van Morrison can carry a tune...

Hey, are you poking fun at Jim Morin?!?! Be careful, or he'll have to make a really silly editorial drawing of you!
NOTE: The drawing above is merely represents a potential...and is not a Jim Morin drawing...

Keep on snarkin' in the free world!

Neil Young - A southern man don't need him around, anyhow.
- Some group named for their high school football coach.

Didn't that prick Van Halen get stricken with tongue cancer for lying out his ass so much? Who is his lead singer now, anyway? Sammy sounds and looks more and more like Jimmy Buffet with every passing month. I'm glad I have moved on to better things, like becoming an EMT in New York and hosting the remnants of Howard Stern's radio show for Clear Channel.
Peace,

Hey, Dave, where's the annual Christmas shopping list from last year? I thought that was hilarious. The one with the self-stapling kit from Cabelas? I need help shopping for the menfolks in my life this year!

Scat - I would like to point out that you have to be cuddling with a cat that has ringworm. It doesn't spontaneously generate just from snuggling beasties.
Oh... Wait... Maybe that explains the rash...

I'm a big Van Morrison fan, but this is the first I've heard of this one! Rest assured that it is winging it's way to my iPod™ as we speak!

Sal, you are correct. Also, Infected Cats WBAGNFARB.

Priceless! I think I love Van even more than I did before!
