what is going on in the lyrics for "can the can"?
Well you call your mamma tiger
And we all know you are lying
And your boyfriend's name is eagle
And he lives up in the sky (high high)
Watch out the tiger don't go claw the eagle's eye
But let the eagle take the tiger by surprise
Scratch out her eyes
So make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can
If you can
Well can the can
Well your sister's got the feline touch, she touches up your mind
And your eagle lover likes his little bit of evil loving all the time
Don't let the cat get into the eagle's nest at night
Because the eagle could say "yes" without a fight
Scratch out her eyes
So make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can Can the can
If you can
Well can the can
Ooh can the can (Can the can honey)
Ooh can the can (Can the can honey)
Uh uh can the can (Can the can honey)
Ooh can the can (Can the can honey)
Ooh can the can (Can the can honey)
Ooh can the can (Can the can honey)
AAAAH!
Honey, honey
Honey, honey, honey
Make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can
If you can
Make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can
If you can
Aah!
Make a stand for your man

three years pass...
watched the JJ/Bad Reputation docu last night that was recently aired on the Sky Arts channel in the UK.
the usual stuff for first 45 mins re the Runaways of course, the struggle re solo career, then The Big Hit,
after which they hardly touched on anything re her own music,
just her involvement with the riot grrrrrl scene (which to be fair i had no idea about).
way too many vox pops from people who i have absolutely no interest in.
such a shame.
the only thing that did come across well is the insanely close relationship between JJ and her manager, Kenny Laguna.
such a shame as even the late era live footage of her middle of the afternoon slots on the Warped Tours looked amazing.
as someone pointed out on IMDB : i still know absolutely nothing about JJ.
but i suspect that's probably how she wanted it.

to answer my previous : years of patience has paid off.
a charity shop that is normally full of the usual gubbins today had 2006 cd reissues of : bad reputation, i love rock-n-roll, album, glorious results of a misspent youth,
along with her 2013 album, unvarnished.
now i get all the posts re her cover versions etc.
not that i am complaining.
now i refuse to choose as i love both as much as each other.
