Song Info

Title:

He's A Cop Now (Blegen/Chertkow)

Songs About Dave

Lyrics:

We used to hang out all the time
He could always score the kindest weed
But then he left his friends behind
To "Protect and Serve" is now his creed

Cuz he's a cop now
He's a cop now
He's a cop now
He's a cop now

We'd steal cars and joy ride
Shoplift and not get caught
Now we just don't see eye to eye
And he thinks he's such a big shot

Cuz he's a cop now
He's a cop now
He's a cop now
He's a cop now

I just saw him the other day
He caught me doing ninety nine
He smiled and sent me on my way
I guess he's still a friend of mine

I'm glad he's a cop now
He's a cop now
He's a cop now
He's a cop now

Song Notes:

He once was on our side, but he's a cop now.

A 10 Year Anniversary

Today marks a couple of really important anniversaries for Beatnik Turtle. Two years ago we had just launched The Song Of The Day and were toasting champagne to the tune of the first song, TheSongOfTheDay.com.

So Long, Goodbye (Again)

The Fog

I’m sure by now, especially if you work in I.T., you’ve heard of “The Cloud.” It’s all about little-to-no cost storage “out there” on the internet somewhere. If you use a web-based email service like GMail, your emails are all stored in “The Cloud.” What is “The Fog” you ask (besides a classic John Carpenter [...]

Will It Blend?

In anticipation of Thanksgiving and things cullinary, I thought we’d share a new use for a common Kitchen tool: the blender.
