Knee Jerk State of Mind
New York State of Mind words and music by Billy Joel
Parody and copyright by LonePalm
Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from insanity
Read a book on Miami Beach
Or at Daytona
But I'm writing parody
That no one else can rhyme
I'm in a knee jerk state of mind
I've seen all the ANTIFAs
Burning police cars and the Autozone
They’re high on pot or is it methadone?
But I know what we’re needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a knee jerk state of mind
It was so easy winning day by day
Out of touch with the Democrat blues
But now I need a little give and take
The Knee Jerk Times, Joe’s daily snooze
The Left won’t face reality
But that's fine with me and I've told you so
Don't care if they burn Portland or Chicago
I'm writing parody
That no one else can rhyme
I'm in a knee jerk state of mind
It was so easy winning day by day
Out of touch with the Democrat blues
But now I need a little give and take
The Knee Jerk Times, Joe’s daily snooze
The Left won’t face reality
But that's fine with me and I've told you so
Don't care if they burn Portland or Chicago
I'm writing parody
That no one else can rhyme
I'm in a knee jerk state of mind
But I'm just writing parody
That no one else can rhyme
'Cause I'm in a knee jerk state of mind

Thank you for this evening’s parody musical interlude. I sang it and feel better about the weekend for having done so! :D
