Default Mullinmania on NVN

Rick Mullin is in hilarious form on a sinister topic at today's New Verse News with Crawpocalypso. Great stuff!

Yes, this is wonderful, Rick.

(And how thoughtful of NVN to post a video for young persons who don't know the song--though when I click I'm told it's not available )

That's a bit strange, Maryann When I click on it comes through loud and gravelly. Quite entertaining compared with other versions I've heard.

Thanks Jerome. Look out for them crawdadas

The video doesn't work on my pancake either, Maryann. I think that makes it funnier.

Maryann--that song never gets old!

I am no accomplished member on account of this piece of Euro country hawnk. But please, please like me on Facebook and Twitter. Please.

And, thanks!

Situational irony aside, this is sonic fun, Rickster! Well made!

Thanks Gail 'n' Cally.

Since these things are filed on tight deadline, revisions come after publication. To wit:

Crawpocalyso

The marbled crayfish is a mutant species that clones itself, scientists report. The population is exploding in Europe.~The New York Times, February 5, 2018

Met Excuses aan Hank Williams

Goodbye Zoe Fontineaux, me oh my oh,
Me gotta go throw ‘way dem books all ‘bout de “Bio”!
Frankenstein got a claws ‘n’ spine, me oh my oh,
Clone of a beas’ gonna have some feas’ like a Russian spy-o!


Jambalaya and a crawfish pie a la car-tay.
Eurozone gotta crustay-shone too big to par-tay!
Au revoir to the reservoir, and adieu to you all,
Ain’t no bang gonna end a thang cause it’s a-sex-ual.
