Yeah, right...

Well, my telephone was ringing
And they told me it was Barry O.
Well, my telephone was ringing
And they told me it was Barry
Oh, oh, oh
I said, you can tell him anything
'Cause I just don't wanna talk to him now

I've got the apolitical blues
And that's the meanest blues of all
A apolitical blues
And that's the meanest blues of all
I don't care if it's John McCain
I just don't wanna talk to him now
No calls

1. A note in re the irony here...

(It occurs to me that some of us are kinda old compared to many of you, whether we want to admit it to ourselves or not. So it's likely that you might not have recognized the above as an almost-but-not-quite verbatim quote from the lyrics of "A Apolitical Blues," a Lowell George song that he performed with Little Feat way back when Hector was a pup and Nixon was a president. All I did was to change two names; the originals being Chairman Mao and John Wayne, both of whom were still very much alive and still quite relevant at the time the song was first recorded.)
