She's a gossip columnist in the Minneapolis area. She has written a number of unflattering items about Prince, in which she often calls him "silly names" like Symbolina.

Exactly!! It's not like her career has had any defining moments, other than her hack jobs of Prince.

Lyrics - spot the pun in bold



Billy Jack Bitch

Billy Jack Bitch (Billy Jack, Billy Jack)
(Bitch) {Fishbone's "Lyin' Ass Bitch" sample repeats in song}
What if I called U silly names
Just like the ones that U call me?
What if I filled your eyes with tears
So many that U cannot see?

CHORUS:
Billy Jack Bitch - Do U ever really cry? (Billy Jack Bitch)
Billy Jack Bitch - Do U ever really try? (Billy Jack Bitch)
Billy Jack Bitch - Do U ever wonder why? (Billy Jack Bitch)
Billy Jack Bitch (Billy Jack Bitch)

(Billy Jack Bitch)

What if I told U that U're worth
Only half of what U be?
Would U come forth and tell no lies?
Would U come forth and talk 2 me?

CHORUS

(Billy Jack Bitch)

What distortion could U let your pen forget 2day?
What misfortune left your heart so broken U only say
Words intended 2 belittle or dismay?
What if I say U lie?
Billy Jack Bitch (Well)

Open letters aren't the only things that open wounds
Long hard shiny rocket ships can fly U 2 the moon

Whenever evil wants 2 groove
Come let me fly U 2 the moon
Then U can see how love will bloom
Joy - it's in the dictionary
See "J" - Billy Jack Bitch

Do U ever really cry? (Do U ever really cry Billy Jack Bitch?)
Do U ever really try? (Do U ever really try Billy Jack Bitch?)
Do U ever wonder why? (Do U ever wonder why Billy Jack Bitch?)
Oh, Billy Jack Bitch (Billy Jack Bitch)
Billy, Billy, oh yeah yeah yeah!

(Do U ever really cry Billy Jack Bitch?)
(Do U ever really try Billy Jack Bitch?) Cry, cry
(Do U ever wonder why Billy Jack Bitch?) Try, try
(Billy Jack Bitch) Billy, Billy, oh

(Billy Jack Bitch)
(Billy Jack, Billy Jack)
(Billy Jack Bitch)

Uh
(Billy Jack, Billy Jack)
Yeah, uh
(Billy Jack, Billy Jack) {x2}
(Billy Jack Bitch)
Solo with that on there

(Billy Jack Bitch) {x2}

Please access another experience {x2}

(Billy Jack Bitch)

Ha ha ha ha ha
Y'all some tight motherfuckers

So I don't know who an obscure American gossiper is. And that makes you better than me ?
OK You're better. I find it so interesting bored that probably I'll have forgotten tomorrow.
I'm a fan for the music, honey. And I'd be ashamed to use just a neuron to remember such "vital" data.

Having said that, no resentment OK? razz

never realized CJ was Billy Jack Bitch

And yet he said it plain as day biggrin

Funny how sometimes the obvious escapes us. For the longest time I was baffled by this lyric:

Race, in this space, I mark Human!


I was like.... what is Imarkhuman? As if it were one word and what the hell is Imarkhuman and then one day it dawned on me as I was filling out a form and there was a box for my race and that lyric popped into my mind. Duh duh that is what Prince meant, in the space for "race" he marks "Human". Only took me about 7 years to get that one biggrin
