Told

I told the Manic Street Preachers

to stay the hell away from me,

’cause if it rains on them

and they’re following me around,

it’s going to start raining on me.

 

I told Bob Dylan

that it feels just fine

thank you for asking;

a man must walk down

as many roads as he needs to,

and not down a single road

more.

 

I told the Baha Men

that I let the dogs out;

I told Queen

I want to live forever.

 

I told myself

I’d lead the sailors

to the shore.

 

I told The Who

what my name was;

I told Oasis

I was getting high

while they were getting high.

 

I told The Beatles

I didn’t want to do it

in the road,

because that sort of thing

can get an honest man

arrested.

 

I told The Black Eyed Peas

I took the love

and destroyed it;

I told John Lennon

that I sleep

the same way

he does.
