TAKE A STAND

This is not something I'd normally do, posting two versions of the same song by the same band in successive days. But, I don't care. I'm a wild man. I use two paper towels to dry one hand. Besides, there's a reason. I'm rarely listening to lyrics, the first couple of times I hear a song. You know, kind of just checking out the whole package. So, last night, the true weight of the lyrics to Mudhoney's "Chardonnay" didn't sink in, and I feel guilty for being so indifferent. Today when I was listening more closely, I heard a message that deserved to be revisited, it was that important. So, here's another in-studio version of "Chardonnay", this time recorded at KEXP, in Seattle. And below are the lyrics, if you'd like to paste them in your scrapbook.

You've always been the critics' darling
And a hit at all the fancy parties
But for me, man you don't do nothing
I see through your charade
I hate you Chardonnay
You're the grape that launched a thousand strippers
The soccer mom's favorite sipper
I can't think of anything sicker
Get the fuck out of my backstage
I hate you Chardonnay
I hate you Chardonnay
I hate you Chardonnay
I hate you Chardonnay
I see through your charade
I hate you Chardonnay
