Lyrics to Joe Conklin's final show
That’s right I started as a journalist, morphed into antagonist
33 years of being pissed.
Started with Brookshier, finally gonna retire,
3AM’s really early, Arson Arnie Eagle Shirley
Made a stink, babbled on, Beach Tags in Avalon!
Drunk court, Judge Seamus
Clifford Lentz is on Uranus
Dirty 30, Bad Rapper
Getting drunk with Chip Snapper
Coworkers I abused: Ava Graham & Rhea Hughes
30 years, of carrying, the station, doing all the work,
And MY BACK HURTS.
Wing Bowl, Arlen Spector, and producer Joe Weachter
Marissa's on from Tokyo, Jonesie just let one go.
Sweetie give me a hug, Conklin wants another plug
I owe it all to Al Morganti, even now I’m hating Andy
Flyers, Sixers, Eagles, Phillies
Screw Charlie and Fregosi, crush em’ crush em’ all!
So chaotic, idiotic. Now I gotta, pay for crab fries at
Chickie’s and Pete’s!
(chorus)
Its the end of my show as I know it
I’ll be bored out of my mind and I know it
Oh, I just knew that GANNON was gonna blow it.
What a Fond Farewell
(verse 2)
Pulitzer nominee, Woo-hoo look at me!
But my legacy? Rent a bus, Boo McNabb!
Tony Bruno, Big Daddy, Steven Singer, pull my finger,
Big Rube, Super fan, Mitchie Poo, Bill & Stan,
Stinkin’ ref, blown call, robbed us of a Super Bowl,
Scream & yell, kick & shout, this is how I’m going out
(chorus)
Its the end of my show and I know it,
It’s the end of my life as I know it,
I’m going home to count my money, don’t you know it!
And I feel fine… Ooh! Bentley!
