New tune for you … (actually it’s really old)
Poo Bah is an old tune I wrote back in the nineties.
It is in fact part of a large bunch of recording I did in ‘98 (thanks to my good friend John Elkins who had the foresight to sit me down and record the tunes that were all floating around in my mind. I am so glad we did that because I’ve forgotten many of them by now).
It borrows it’s title from the Pulp Fiction line by Eric Stoltz that goes something like “don’t be bringing no fucked-up Poo-Bah to my house”, …

from memory, i think the lyrics are:
Karma’s gonna getcha boy
Karma’s gonna getcha boy
One minute your cruising, the next your bruised
And battered like a disco toy.
It’s a fucked up Poo-bah, yeah
It’s a fucked up Poo-bah, yeah
Nothing in this world ever made any goddamn sense to me
And I can never make any sense of this goddam world
Tomorrow your a car crash
Yesterday, well that’s just history
Tonight is cigarette ash
And a beautiful girl
It’s messing me up in the head
It’s messing me up in the head
One minute your fine
The next minute your fine

hrmmmm …. must be a character limit for replies …
cont…
“Then your lying on the floor and your dead
Yeah your messing up a hospital bed
Nothing in this world ever made any goddamn sense to me
And I can never make any sense of this goddam world
Tomorrow your a car crash
Yesterday, well that’s just history
Tonight is cigarette ash
And a beautiful girl

Not far off … good memory J Man. I especially like “disco toy”. Not actually correct but definitely funny
and once again you are making things easy for me because now all I need to do is cut n past these lyrics, fix ‘em up and then post em in above. so I guess I owe you a beer.
MMmmmm …. beeeeeeer ….
