This is my submission for this weeks Steemit Open Mic contest by @pfunk and @luzcypher. This week I cover the song 'TV Star' by The Butthole Surfers!
...so without further ado...
'TV Star'
Lyrics -
I'm in love with a TV star
She drove me home in her Lexus car
Like her dog but I don't watch her show
Spend my time with the radio
Seen her dancin' on the Sunset Strip
Bell-bottom jeans and her curvy hips
Seen her sittin' there with her boyfriend
Good lookin' fellow but he's lookin' kinda thin
Christina, A La La La La,
Christina, A La La La La
Christina, A La La La La,
Christina, I love you so
Remember that day we played pool
I saw your bedroom and we ate BBQ
Barbie came from her trip down town
Fifty up and Forty down
Love ya more than the sun and the sky
Gotta kiss and hug ya 'fore I die
Something else that you oughta know too
It's something weird
Christina, A La La La La,
Christina, A La La La La
Christina, A La La La La,
Christina, I love you so
I'm in love with a TV star
She drove me home in her Lexus car
Like her dog but I don't watch her show
Spend my time with the radio
Been watchin' TV as the years go by
Seen em' born and I seen 'em die
Something else that you oughta know too
I like a girl named Ellen more than you
Christina, A La La La La,
Christina, A La La La La
Christina, A La La La La,
Christina, I love you so

Thanks dude!
Honestly, I’d only ever heard Pepper.
So cool man. I got to meet the Butthole Surfers back in 1995 in Austin, Texas. Those guys were a lot of fun.

That's so awesome! I've been a fan since like '97. I hadn't heard of them before, but I was 12 years old and just starting to really get into looking for new music and I saw the Electriclarryland "pencil in the ear" album cover and the name "The Butthole Surfers"... I had to check 'em out.
yes!
Nicely done. I haven't watched a lot of the Open Mic videos, but I think after seeing your's it may be something I should do. I really enjoyed your choice of music.
Thanks so much for sharing your talent!

Nice song man. I've never heard of this band... I may have to do some youtube research :-)
First time hearing this song. For what I know, you played the song really well, you got good practice too as everything sounded great! Good job :)
