Doin' the Jane Fonda

Yeah, so...

Am curently listening to "Jane Fonda" by Mickey Avalon.

M just heard it the other day on the radio and it is her newest little obsession. Probably has something to do with the decadent overtones.

Witness:

I had a baby named Jane
she could shake that thing
said her daddy used to hang with Johnny Coltrane
she sang the soul train with a friend named Jen
her booty was bigger than a Mercedes Benz
Its hard to convey the flavor via lyrics alone, but it reminds me most of Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side" with a little of the Nails' "Eighty-eight lines about forty-four women" thrown in for good measure.

It has that flip, slightly buzzed, degenerate kind of charm.

If you like that sort of thing.
