Dang! I hate it when this happens!! Last night, when I was sleeping my redneck buddy Tater Totts broke into my studio and recorded a song using MY band in a Box and posted it on HIS channel. I am sincerely sorry. I was not able to stop this in time.

The Ballad of Country Joe
By Tater Nashville Totts

Hello, this is Tater Totts
and there is nothing I hate worse
than a big fat ugly Internet Troll
weighing about 600 pounds sitting behind their
computer in the dark watching porno and
afraid to come out in the light like a real man
cause he knows I will kick his [*****]
and what’s why I wrote this here song called
The Ballad of Country Joe, yes I did

V1

Country Joe you're not a man
And you know you’ll never be
Your mama still has to hold your hand
When you go to pee
You posted a picture of yourself in cowboy hat
From 1963
Now you weigh 800 pounds
You’re a disgusting sight to see

CH:

It’s the Ballad
The Ballad of Country Joe
And President Donald says you got to go
You big fat Internet Troll
We’re trying to make American Great Again
And you’re the world’s most pathetic excuse for a man
You're just a Big Fat Internet Troll
Thought I’d let you know
Country Joe

V2

You know
I met with President Trump yesterday
And I said DJ, you got to relax son
There’s a lot of people need to come
Into this country and I’m going to have to ask you to turn it down some
All except for one person DJ
And that’s Country Joe
I want you to pass an executive order against
All big fat ugly Internet Trolls
Hiding behind their computers like a bunch of
Russian hackin’ sissies who don’t even have the guts to show their face
I think you need to stop wasting your money picking on Mexico
Cause they sure as hell can make some music down there
No Mr. President
I think you need to make an Internet Border
Against Country Joe
The Internet Troll

CH:

Cause it’s the Ballad, the Ballad
The Ballad of Country Joe
And President Donald says you got to go
You big fat Internet Troll
We’re trying to make American Great Again
And you’re the world’s most pathetic excuse for a man
You're a Big Fat Internet Troll
and you're ugly too
Country Joe ( x 2)

Cause you’re a stinkin’, sissie,
pathetic, stupid
Useless,
Internet Troll
That's who you are
that's exactly what you are
Country Joe

Oh man, the description of how it came about and the write is
hilarious. I read some wonderful responses to trolls back during
the ole net flame wars in the 90's but this is the best. By a long
shot.

A glimpse inside your head when the inspiration hits would
be worth whatever the price of the ticket!

Fun!

Funny tune. Glad you kept it generic and addressed it to a fictional character.... How could one be offended if they don't exist?

Charlie,

I don't know Jean-Paul Sartre. Hmmmmmm. Maybe you could start smoking a pipe and create an entire philosophical movement around that.

smile

Hey, I have an idea for your first novel:

Nausea.

Just a thought.

Or "Country Joe: If He falls off a bar stool and no one hears him is he still drunk?"

Is there another trick I am missing?? This place is a goldmine for crazy.

David, you've ruined the rest of my year! To have the song of the year written so early in the year simply takes the wind out of my sails to even try.

This, my friends, is the brilliance of the program. Someone like David can write and produce an entire song this fast. So cool!

Thanks for the laugh David! I didn't see that comin' and somehow it doesn't surprise me that you could do it!
