08 Jan
For a clever but innocently comic slice-o-teenage-life tune written by Leiber and Stoller, the cover image that Amazon uses for this digital download of the Coasters’ 1958 hit “Yakety Yak” invites some interesting reinterpretations:
♫ You ain’t gonna rock and roll no more ♫ …
…not after I smash your head in with this pipe wrench, your Corvette crashes, and you and your girl die a firey death! You’ll think twice about not taking out that trash next time, right? RIGHT?!?!
