Like Indian musicians, we tuned together 
Stroboscopic Tuners, revealed that we never
Played a gig in Concert pitch - whatever.

New drumheads were stolen 
Boiled bass strings saved money
Pitch Pipes were our first harmonicas

Riding White Swans 
We were Kids of the Revolution 
Thank the gods for glam and David Bowie
 
The Sweet at the I-Beam and their 3-part harmonies 
Deep Purple and The Beach Boys combined
That a good catchy song makes a band worth it’s char-monies.
Took NOFX a decade to find 

Buddy Holly died the day that Lol was born 
Lol became Big Bopper a natural showstopper
Busby Berkeley twirled, and Budgie sought ‘em!
Beatles for Sale and Budgie bought ‘em!

The Captain was Awesome in the Village of The Damned
Lol and Mikey D said, ‘Should we call on Rat’s Mum?’ 
NOFX had 10 years of peace until Covid 
Mike had No music as a kid 

No smoking behind the bike sheds
No Drugs, no Pot, no Meth heads 
Outsiders for life – it’s a Gas!
 
Mike? Still a punk at his High-School reunion? 
Retirement? - No way! 
Mike is living the dream again!

Lol’s American Passport - Berlin black shirt and round glasses - Beatles in Hamburg 
10,000 hours - 16 chords - Ringo’s Drumstick - Mike Loves 8 times 
Oasis plagiarism - Sleaford Modism - Burgundy Velvet Underwear!!!!! 
Lol went to Nashville - gave Johnny Cash a No-no 
Fishbowl studio tour guides, Flea and Fred a Go-go 
 
What a Lovely Fellow Mike is!
