Karaoke is fun… but the aftermath is not.
Went to this new bar in town for Karaoke night and it was apparently (after I signed up) a country place… And y’all know what I think of country.
I did a few songs like Incubus’s “Drive” and Disturbed “Down With The Sickness” … And I heard everyone else doing this bluegrass shit. I signed up for this battle thing they had going on not knowing what I had in store for me.
They pick random songs and two people battle against each other trading verses and then the crowd votes… So song #1 they had me do: “Gin and Juice” by Snoop. They didn’t expect me to be able to do it, being a country bar and all. I rocked it and surprised everyone… wiped out the competition.
Song #2: “I’m Just A Girl” by No Doubt… If you guys have never heard me do this song in falsetto… you’re missing a treat. OWNED the other dude.
Song #3: “some stupid country song” by redneck guy. I had no idea what this song was, and I hate country music… so I figure my drunk ass may as well get myself kicked out of a country Bar. So, the lyrics I freestyled were something like:
“Well, I’m a country motherfucker and I sing this shit all night long. My accent gives away exactly how stupid I am. I could bathe, but I’d rather fuck my sister instead…” and out I went…
Good times, but I dunno if I’ll be going back for a rematch.
