Friday April 16, 2021 “Eazy Sleazy” Mick Jagger/Dave Grohl

Sir Mick pretty much covers the past year and the current situation.
In case you missed it the other day when it hit the radio airwaves, Mick Jagger wrote a song during and about the covid isolation called “Eazy Sleazy” and I guess the Stones weren’t available so Sir Mick put together a band to record it, a one man band, Dave Grohl.

 You might remember from yesterday that the Foo Fighters first album/CD was effectively only Dave Grohl as he played all the instruments and he does the same thing for Mick Jagger on this tune as well.

 Age of course is strictly a mental process, we are all only as old as we want to be, infirmities aside, and Jagger certainly offers the proof to that cliche.  Here he is at 77, maybe showing some physical signs of the effects of age but not any loss of energy or desire to sell the fact that he may still be the best frontman in rock history.

 Not much more needs to be said here except it is fun to hear Jagger reference Bill Gates, Tik Tok, Zoom and cleaning the kitchen sink...you know he has people to do that even in the age of covid.  Give it a watch/listen before Bill Gates has the video pulled down.

 Stay safe and well...and you will be wondering about the word ‘poncey’, so apparently it means pretentious.

W'e took it on the chin

The numbers were so grim

Bossed around by pricks

Stiffen upper lips

Pacing in the yard

You’re trying to take the mick

You must think i'm really thick

 Looking at the graphs with a magnifying glass

Cancel all the tours footballs fake applause

No more travel brochures

Virtual premieres

I've got nothing left to wear

 Looking out from these prison walls

You got to rob peter if you're paying paul

But its easy easy everything’s gonna get really freaky

Alright on the night

Soon it ll be be a memory you're trying to remember to forget

 That's a pretty mask

But never take a chance tik tok stupid dance

Took a samba class i landed on my ass

Trying to write a tune you better hook me up to zoom

See my poncey books teach myself to cook

Way too much tv its lobotomising me

Think i've put on weight

I'll have another drink then ill clean the kitchen sink

 We escaped from the prison walls

Open the windows and open the doors

But its easy easy

Everything s gonna get really freaky

Alright on the night

Its gonna be a garden of earthly delights

Easy sleazy its gonna be smooth and greasy

Yeah easy believe me

Itll only be a memory you're trying to remember

To forget

 Shooting the vaccine bill gates is in my bloodstream

Its mind control

The earth is flat and cold it's never warming up

The arctics turned to slush

The second comings late

There's aliens in the deep state

 We'll escape from these prison walls

Now we're out of these prison walls

You gotta pay peter if you're robbing paul

But its easy easy everything's gonna be really freaky

Alright on the night

Were all headed back to paradise

Yeah easy believe me

It'll be a memory you’re trying to remember to forget

Easy cheesy everyone sing please please me

It’ll be a memory you're trying to remember to forget
