I’ve not spoken about music yet, other than a quick blurb about my feelings on corporate radio, but at some point I’ll get to talking about it. And when I do I’ll touch on Michael Knott. Until then, to commemorate the death of one of Hollywood’s oddest residents and one of Knott’s greatest characters, I ‘ve posted the lyrics to ‘John Barrymore Jr.’.
John Barrymore, Jr.
A weird guy
Sixteen cats and a dog
drinking’ beer from a bowlJohn Barrymore, Jr.
A weird guy
Wearin’ golf shoes down the hall
With the spikes still inside
We’re ready for our acting lesson
You taught McQueen
You taught McQueen
Over your knee now to get a spanking
Like Jimmy Dean
Your sweet Jimmy Dean
John Barrymore, Jr.
A weird guy
Sixteen cats and a dog
Drinkin’ beer from a bowl
We’re ready for our acting lesson
You taught McQueen
You taught McQueen
Over your knee now to get a spanking
Like Jimmy Dean
Your sweet Jimmy Dean
