GRATUITOUS VIRTUOSITY

If I ever catch John Popper,
I'm gonna put a stopper
In every single hole in his harp.
     I'll start with bubble gum,
     Put Gummy-Bears in some,
And molasses in the high C sharp.

If I ever catch John Popper,
He's gonna come a cropper
'Cause I'll tie him up and lock him in a room,
     With the ghost of Little Walter,
     Which, hopefully, will alter
His annoying style, and do it real soon!
