Hey Jeff, it’s John. I’m at my studio trying to figure out some comedic way to censor the song. Here’s one example.
…me
you told them all I was crazy
they cut off my legs
now I’m an amputee, [CLANK, HONK, WOBBLE]
I’m not sick—
That’s the cartoon version. Give me a call down here, I’m obviously going completely insane.
Quotes
Jeff: Ladies and gentlemen, John Goodmanson. (For context: when "Flagpole Sitta" was starting to blow up, several radio stations in Texas and the Bible Belt refused to play the song because of the "Goddamn you" line. Several radio edits—from running the vocals backwards, to just deleting the offending word—were tested out; in the end I believe they just ran a version with the word bleeped out.)CDR
