Okay Okay Okay…
…I PROMISE, My Peeps, There Is A VERY Good Reason For Singling-Out This Song.
And YES, It Does Make Me Smile A Bundle When I Think About It.
I Was Already In The Navy When This Song…
“WASTING TIME“
by KID ROCK
…Was Released.
I Actually Didn’t Hear It At All Until I Came Home On Leave During The Winter Of 1998.
By Then, My Best Friend Had A Copy.
And He’s Why This Song Makes Me Smile.
You See…
…We Changed The Words.
My BFF’s Nickname Is KOJAK.
So…
…Every Single Time KID ROCK Would Use His Name In A Song…
…We’d Say KOJAK, Instead.
“…Puffin’ A Winston…
…Drinkin’ A Four-O…
…KOJAK…
…And I’mm’a Let You Know…“
π
(hahahahahaha)
And It Wasn’t Just This Song.
We Did It With EVERY Song KID ROCK Sang…
…Since We Had To Find A Real Reason To Justify Listening To His Music In The First Place.
Trust Me, My Peeps…
…It Was Entirely Justified With That Minor Lyrical Change…
…As It Made Us Laugh So SO HARD.
(hehehehehehe)
