Your Mother Should Know, On Old School Friday

April 10th, 2009 by cooper

“If My Mama Only Knew” is the theme for this weeks old School Friday.

My mother did know, at least most of the time. Sure maybe she didn’t know that I was in a park in D.C. seeing Fugazi and get­ting Ian Mackaye’s email address when I was 14, but that was only because it would have expo­sed my brother’s com­pli­city in the trans­por­ting of a bunch of us 9th gra­ders over the “state-line” into D.C. without their parents per­mis­sion only a week after get­ting his license, and I didn’t want to get him in trouble .;)

She knew because I wasn’t adept at hiding things, as I wrote here, on the cir­cums­tance where Jag­ged Little Pill was retur­ned to the store from whence it came, with much humi­lia­tion on my part, after my mother heard the words to You Outta Know.

What she pro­bably doesn’t know is that I always wan­ted to make love with In A-Gadda-Da-Vida pla­ying in the back­ground. So yea, don’t tell her OK?

    I was fee­ling pretty blue with Tiger falling behind at the Master’s, but the wan­ting to have sex to “In A-Gadda-Da-Vida”, now that makes me smile.

    Pos­sibly the first thing we’ve ever agreed on. Call me.

    I feel so sad for the hope­ful young men in Bal­ti­more. Who the hell would think of Iron But­terfly for seduc­tion songs? The ghost of Barry White is sad now, too.

    You Oughta Know is something some of us should have been saying to our­sel­ves. I defi­ni­tely should have known my mother knew what I was up to… most of the time. ;)

    There’s not much my mother knew, and I’d like to keep it that way until I’m fifty years old. It makes

    The In A-Gadda-Da-Vida idea is not bad.
