Lyrical Satirical: This Song is for Summer

This Song Is For Summer

©2013 FTM Satire

Aw hell yeah it's summer again

Time to drop a tailgate with your redneck friends

Text up some honeys in cut off jeans

Sugar shaker, donkadonk, know what I mean?

Crank some Lil Wayne in a country mood

Pass around some moonshine we bought at Whole Foods

Let's get rowdy like Hank would do

Hey, check out my new Duck Dynasty tattoo

Chorus

This song is for summer, y'all

Those three months after spring and just before fall

Have to spell it out cause my fans are dumber

Crank it on up in the summer summer summer

Yeehaw boys, yeah I got some swag

Got a Mud Life sticker and truck nutz that drag

Old farts hatin' cause I drop some rhymes

But that's how we do country in the summertime

Shotgun, old truck, some other cliche

Gather round the fire and I'll sing you some Kanye

Feet on the dash, let the night commence

Who cares if this tune doesn't make any sense?

This song is for summer, y'all

Those three months after spring and just before fall

Have to spell it out cause my fans are dumber

Crank it on up in the summer summer summer

Bridge (spoken)

And now a word from our sponsor:

It's hot out there while you're partying with your homeyz

Try something a little different!

Bud Light Lime.

It's Bud Light, with a twist!

Back to this song for summer, son

Put it out in March so it's a June number one

Have to spell it out cause my fans are dumber

Crank it on up in the summer summer summer

Pickin' on Strait

Help Oklahoma

Our hearts, minds and spirits go out to the people of Oklahoma today in the wake of yesterday's tragic tornadoes.

If you'd like to help the relief efforts, you can donate $10 to the Salvation Army by texting STORM to 80888. You can donate $10 to the Red Cross by texting REDCROSS to 90999. There are other ways to help, some documented here. Also, if you live in the area (or any area for that matter, but particularly in OK), it would be excellent if you went and donated some life-giving blood.

Yeah I Like The National

I know most of FTM's readers probably aren't big into indie rock (and neither am I), but I can't get enough of this band. The National is one of the few supposed "hipster" bands I love. Their music is morose but joyously so, if that makes any sense. The National is a hypnotic, anthemic soundtrack to despair. Their new album out tomorrow, Trouble Will Find Me, is easily one of my favorite albums of the year thus far. Here's the first video from the new album, "Sea of Love."

Fun With Google Autocomplete

Pants. I think the answer is pants.

Come on, she's pregnant. And her name isn't Lady Antebellum.

Hey, they said it ...not me.

No, she's pretty much perfect except for that one night with Martina McBride at the Chippendales' show.

I thought this was a joke until I saw that the CDB used to cover this in concert. I still think it's a joke...

Probably not.

Yes, Gary gave birth to Hunter himself.

No comment.

No, but her fans like poop in their ears.
