The Devil In Miss Jones

BEWARE: Quote the lyrics to 'Sweat Loaf' anywhere near me and this is what happens.

Either way, you gots you a mean ol' streak in you!
In the best way! Yup!

Call me... I'm harvesting a freak zit. You should hear all about it.

Nope Anon, (can I call you 'Anon'?) I do in fact mean 'Sweat Loaf'. It's a Butthole Surfers song that I believe uses the riff (or at least a Buttholiesqe version of said riff) of Sabbath's 'Sweet Leaf'. The song has the silliest lyrics this side of Hades, which I've quoted ad nauseum for years.

ANYWAY, I was at this barbeque the other night and...well...guess what happened. My friend Lorelei started doing the lyrics. The rest, as they say, is the glorius Kodak moment I've posted above.

Oh...the lyrics are as follows:
(spoken word over ethereal intro music):

Daddy?

Yes, son.

What does regret mean?

Well son, the funny thing about regret is that it's better to regret
something you have done than to Regret something that you haven't done.

And by the way, if you see your mom this weekend, will you be sure and tell her...

SATAN SATAN SATAN!!!!

Then the effed-up Sabbath riff kicks in on and off for about 6 minutes.

It's off 'Locust Abortion Technician'--find that album and listen to it. You will never be the same afterward. (And if I ever locate my errant collection of vinyl I will do the same!)

Sometimes I feel that truer words were never spoken

Are you regretting something in particular at the moment?

I know I am.
