Jeff Tweedy Turd

jtt badge.thumbnail Jeff Tweedy TurdIf you don’t know, Jeff Tweedy is the main guy in the band Wilco. I love Wilco. I really do. Especially their last three studio albums.

But some people worship Jeff Tweedy like he is a god. I am poking fun at these folks.

Jeff has played several solo shows at Marytr’s in Chicago over the years, making my fictional purloinment of said fecal matter a little more believable.

Lyrics

Jeff Tweedy Turd
Do you wanna see my most prized possession?
I got it last fall backstage at Marytr’s.
Do you wanna see my most prized possession?
Do you wanna see my chemically preserved, trophy-mounted Jeff Tweedy turd?

Do you want to see my … Jeff Tweedy turd?
I’d eat it if I thought I could get another Jeff Tweedy turd.
Do you want to see my Jeff Tweedy turd?
Do you wanna see my … chemically preserved, trophy-mounted Jeff Tweedy turd?

Technical Details

Written on: 22 July 2004
Instruments: Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Piano, Organ
Loops: Unknown royalty-free drum loops from a magazine

My intent was to make this sound sort of like a Wilco song. A Ghost is Born was relatively new a the time this was written, so I probably intended for this to sound like a song from that record.
