about

i rewrote a traditional song here, with new lyrics about a spoiled brat who sounds a lot like a successful politician, and a rocking groove lifted from one of the greatest rock bands of all time.

lyrics

the mockingbird song chris gerolmo

tune down 1 whole step
effective key of gm

momma momma have you heard a (c d) a (d c)
daddy’s gonna buy me a mockingbird
and if that mockingbird don’t tweet
daddy’s gonna buy me a senate seat

momma momma have you heard a (c d) a (d c)
daddy’s gonna see that i’m chauffeured
and if that chauffeured car don’t gleam
daddy’s gonna buy me a football team
and if that football team don’t score
daddy’s gonna buy me a holy war
and if that holy war don’t last
daddy’s gonna buy me your fat ass yass yass yass yass

you’re mine cflat5
you’re mine
you’re mine
you’re mine
you’re mine
you’re mine
get over here sweetheart
you’re mine too

(break it) a (c d) a (d c)

momma momma have you heard a (c d) a (d c)
daddy’s gonna buy me the spoken word
then when y’all got somethin’ to say
y’all gonna have to pay and pay
or else just sit there & watch tv
but all you’ll see is pictures of me
me and all my famous friends
cause that is how this story ends
take me home, jr
