4.0 out of 5 stars Classic 70s Roadkill Hit, March 9, 2011

This review is from: Dead Skunk (MP3 Download)

This chart titan must be ranked up there with such off-the-wall 1970s AM-pop-radio classics as "Convoy," "Junk Food Junkie," "Life Is A Rock (But The Radio Rolled Me)," "Rock On" and the immortal Charlie Daniels classic, "Uneasy Rider."

It's a little bit country, a little bit rock n' roll, and even a little bit folky, the perfect mix of everything you could possibly musically need.

I mean, how can you go wrong when you're rhymin' "you don't have to see," and "olfactory?"

Bottom line: When it comes to melodic description of dissective vehicular trauma inflicted upon wild mephitidae, of all the choices you have out there, this is the one to pick.

This is just one of the best and funniest songs ever written. I heard it years ago and forgot about it for too many years but now it's on my MP3 players so it will get lots of playing. The only other tune that ranks up with this is "Plastic Jesus."
