KINKY FRIEDMAN HAS GONE TO HEAVEN ..... I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER OUR PERSONAL GET TOGETHER

In 2009, when Kinky ran as an independent candidate for Texas governor., he scheduled a speech to a civic club at the city center in Webster. I tried to attend the event but they would not let me in. As I was returning to my car, I ran into Kinky who was on his way to the venue.

We greeted each other, and then to my surprise, Kinky spent about ten minutes just shooting the bull with me before he left to enter the building where he was going to give his speech.

I believe Kinky would have made a great governor. He was a man of the people. 

Here is my favorite Kinky song:

Get Your Biscuits In the Oven and Your Buns In the Bed

 

You uppity women I don't understand
Why you gotta go and try to act like a man,
But before you make your weekly visit to the shrink
You'd better occupy the kitchen, liberate the sink.

Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed
That's what I to my baby said,
Women's liberation is a-going to your head,
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed.

Early every morning you're out on the street
Passing out pamphlets to everyone you meet.
You gave up your maiden form for lent
And now the front of your dress has an air scoop vent.

Every single brakeman that's ever come along
Had a little woman always tellin' him that he's wrong.
Eve said to Adam,"here's an apple you hose"
And Delilah defoliated Samson's moss. 
 
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed
That's what I to my baby said,
Women's liberation is a-going to your head,
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed.

Mean-hearted harpies are breaking all the laws
Tearing up their girdles and a-burning up their bras,
Now the air is dirty and the sex is clean
And your coffee makes my hair turn green.

So damn emancipated in your mind and your body,
Gonna have to cancel all your lessons in karate.
If you can't love a male chauvinist
You'd better cross me off your shopping list.

Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed
That's what I to my baby said,
Women's liberation is a-going to your head,
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed.

Damn shame. He was an interesting character. And an honest wannabe politician. Not too many of them around.

One of the good guys is gone. I voted for him for Governor! I still listen to his music.
