Just another of my old favorites, from long ago and far away!
Puff The Magic Dragon
Simpler times, I guess!
I can't think right now, of who the Asshat was, that made the disgusting "Barack the Magic Negro" out of this, but it pissed me off! I know Limpballs latched right onto it--he loved it!
I remember reading on HuffPo, Peter Yarrow's excellent response to Chip Saltzman's sending it as 'gift' to members of the Republican National Committee. Asshat---that's all I can say about Saltzman!
Since Puff was recorded in 1963, I know I hadn't smoked yet; not quite a teen, still in the innocence of childhood then. I never realized it was "about smoking pot". And even now, I still don't get that message when I listen to it. Maybe I smoked too much pot later on, and fried my grey matter?
Ok, enough for now. I need some more coffee.
