From ANDRAS JONES: Do you have a pun problem? If so then, depending on the nature of your affliction, this is going to be just the podcast for you or you may consider this your trigger warning. I honestly don’t know what I can add to this massive digression from our format but I do find it interesting that after yesterday’s podcast with Chuck E. Weiss featured All Day Sucker’s “Worst Case Scenario” and its premonition of the Weinstein revelations, we follow up with a song about a woman named Rose. In this case they are referring to, I’m still not sure, either Jordan Summers’ or Jodan Zevon’s cousin who took acid and hooked up with Morty and maybe the Jordan who wasn’t the cousin? I’m not even sure if her name was really Camila Rose or if that’s a made up moniker. It’s all very confusing and when I asked them if I could contact Camila about being on an upcoming show they got very cagey. So, without the actual Rose, let’s imagine that the Rose in question is the Rose of the moment; Ms. Rose McGowan, which puts a whole new spin on the line “Oh my God you guys you know what? What? You know you had to be there”

This is the ode to Camila Rose, first on our block to wear florescent clothes.
I don’t know why I’m wasting my time singin’ ‘bout Camila Rose.
Camila Rose.
My best friend since we were three,
We communicate through ESP. We tried L.S.D.
The trip wasn’t bad ‘til she told her mom and then her mom told my dad
Camila Rose
Oh my god, you guys, you know what? What? Oh my god, you guys, you know what? What? Oh my god you guys, you know you had to be there. You had to be there.
While waiting in line to see ‘Hard to Hold’, she confessed to me that she was ‘Jesse’s Girl’. Obsessed with GH’s Noah Drake’s episodes ‘til commercial breaks I’d wait for Camila Rose.
Oh my god, you guys, you know what? What? Oh my god, you guys, you know what? What? ? Oh my god you guys, you know you had to be there.
Parked on Mullholland drive, playing Working Class Dog.
San Fernando Valley grid twinkling through the smog.
We went all the way, we didn’t stop.
“Til that rent-a-cop caught our window fog.
It got weird then we got grown
Suppose we both got lives that were our own
But that’s how it goes
Guess everyone knows someone like Camila Rose.
Camila Rose
I always knew that you were out of your mind, but now you know that you never left mine.
Oh my god you guys, you know what? What? ? Oh my god you guys, you know what? What? Oh my god you guys, you know you had to be there. You had to be there. Oh my god you guys, you know what? What? ? Oh my god you guys, you know what? What? Oh my god you guys, you know you had to be there. You had to be there.
