The ballad of Lance Armstrong, from June 2006. I'd been wanting to take him on (down) for a while back then..couldn't find a musical vehicle. Then I saw a CD with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' "Mary Jane's Last Dance" on it and I was like, GOT IT!

MY OLDIES. In post-9/11 Bush-Cheney days, I vented by writing "MOp-eds", musical op-eds. I had an acoustic, electric, Yamaha keyboard, & MusicMaker10.
The light was all shining on me for a while there back in the oughts and I made some CDs and I uploaded some of the songs here. I came back in 2021, on the occasion of Darth Vadar's 80th birthday, to upload a couple more Dick (Cheney) songs I recorded back then, and I've re-ordered my songs so we can party like it's 2006 or 7.

Story behind the song
Maybe I knew about Lance early on because how does a clean cancer survivor beat all the dirty healthy guys, anyway? Or maybe it's a French thing. Peut etre. En tout cas...back in the day, when I heard folks bash Barry Bonds I'd say, 'Save some for Lance Armstrong'
Lyrics
LANCE PLAYS A NASTY GAME (from "Mary Jane's Last Dance") Well he rode up on the Motorola team He was America's best, he had America's dream But he got real sick with the dread big C Then he turned it all around and made cycling history Well he mowed 'em down he won seven Tours He blew the boys away the French were torqued He and Doctor Feelgood never got disproven They didn't come up dirty and they just kept movin' One One step ahead Lance plays a nasty game Don't you dare besmirch his precious name When I hear folks bash Barry Bonds I say 'Save some for Lance Armstrong' Well I don't know but I would think That steroids and muscles is a cheating thing You tried to knock it down with a scoff and a snort Said the butt cream was just for saddle sores Lawsuits here lawyers there Threats and spin and menacing stares Just leave folks alone, just move along Like you do when bad news interrupts her songs Lance plays a nasty game Don't you dare besmirch his precious name When I hear folks bash Barry Bonds I say 'Save some for Lance Armstrong' Well there's naive people everywhere And some just want to be real fair Lookin' out from my humble home I just gotta pick this bone There's two surly guys they're both the best Lance and Barry than the mortal rest They both crossed the line in self-defense mode But one's a big hero and the other's a goat Lance plays a nasty game Don't you dare besmirch his precious name When I hear folks bash Barry Bonds I say 'Save some for Lance Armstrong' Lance plays a nasty game Don't you dare besmirch his precious name When I hear folks bash Barry Bonds I say 'Save some for Lance Armstrong'
