Or, the alternate title, A Drink Between Friends.
Take it away, Billy!
SADDLE-TOWN
(a song of the First Generation)
Well, we're living here in Saddle-Town
Where they once burned all the factories down.
Out in Ponyville it's raiding time,
They're dealing in slaves,
And blurring the line.
Well our mothers fought the only world-war
Fought the Zebras bunkered on our shores,
Met our fathers and they had a go,
Then back to the lines,
Well, that's how it goes.
My dad shared this with me today. I had a blast.
As an amateur student of medieval and Renaissance history, this spin on the Billy Joel song was a real joy to see play out.
Hope you all find this worthy of a smile. ^_^
Billy Joel might not have started the fire in 1989 with the album Storm Front, but I burned down London, Chicago, Rome, and the original U.S. Capitol Building.
One of my favorite PMVs.
Wonderfully executed.
(Oh and if you're a clueless weirdo, the song is "We Didn't Start The Fire".)
I love all the references to the geography of the coastline of the New England states in this song.
The Downeaster Alexa by Billy Joel, from the 1989 album Storm Front
