Janet Reno, aged 78
― Michael Jones, Monday, 7 November 2016 10:38 (seven years ago) link
Janet Reno by Anquette (1988)
[Intro]In our town we have a State Attorney by the name of Janet RenoShe locks brothers up for not paying their child supportIn your town you may have someone just like her
[Verse 1]You think you're so slick, that you won't have to payYou slay, get a baby, then run awayOh, but I got a trick for your monkey assThe boys that don't pay get cased up fastYou ask to Janet Reno and she lays the lawAnd when she's through with you, you'll wish you never sawMe or the baby or the place where we metDigging up old gold that you wish you could forgetThe proof is here, it's living and breathingAnd Janet Reno's makin sure that I start receivingAll the money you get, all the checks you makeJanet Reno will make sure and TAKE
[Interlude 1 (to the tune of "Yankee Doodle")]Janet Reno comes to town collecting all the moneyYou stayed one day, then ran away, and started acting funnyShe caught you down on 15th Ave., you tried to hide your trailShe found your ass and locked you up, now WHO can post no bail?(Bust it!)
[Verse 2]You're out in your 'vert, dicking it downYou start to get babbling when Reno comes aroundYou start changing your looks, your clothes and your carYou're not a mama's boy, you're a projects starIt's time to pay your dues, I mean pay in fullJanet's in control, you ain't got no pullYou can't boss around like the boys on the AveAnd slowly but surely I'm getting all that you haveFrom your bad-ass suits to your Revlon cologneYour diamond rings, gold rope and everything you ownWill get taken and then you be sad to the maxAnd I'll even get your income tax
[Interlude 2 (to the tune of "Charlie Brown" by the Coasters)]He walks in a courtroom, cool and slowAnd calls Janet Reno a no good dirty hoShe locks yo ass up, now you don't know what to doThe boys on the Ave. are sure dissin you(Hit it!)
[Verse 3]Janet Reno gets justice for allYou can solve your problems with a phone callSo if you have a problem that you want resolvedJust straighten it out when you get in courtPut your faith in her and you'll want her respectAnd if it's up to her you get all your checksShe helped me out of a jam, I'm doing well on my ownIt could be the same for yours, been proven and shown
[Interlude 3 (to the tune of "This Old Man")]Yes my man had a BroughamBut this time he's not driving it homeWith a knick-knack-slam-splack, you hit it, now you're goneNow I'm 'round town just pushing your BroughamThe next time you start to make a selectionMake sure that you got some protectionThink twice the next time before you jump right in the bedTake a minute out to put a rubber on your head

I'm now older than Dunn was when he started playing Corporal Jones. Just as long as I'm not an actual grandad in three years' time.

Yeah, yet another misunderstanding of a four year old anniversary revival of something on Twitter (though by the time I saw it trending on Twitter, all the tweets were people taking the piss of people who thought he'd just died). Like how Tony Hart dies every year.

i never watched UNCLE, probly first saw Vaughn in Bullitt, where he looked older than 35, playing first big oily pol/bizman villain he came to specialize in.
― Supercreditor (Dr Morbius), Friday, 11 November 2016 19:14 (seven years ago) link
I love how in the Bullit segment of that McQueen doc from about ten years ago, Vaughn is so casually frank when discussing the appeal of the movie--[paraphrased]"Let's face it, the story makes no sense...but Steve was such a great actor"
