Title: Mike Cooley
Post by: rincon2 on Jan 17, 2013, 02:59 AM
Mr. Bumper Sticker. His lyrics I mean. Many of them are perfect for ten word or less, but this one really strikes me as genius,     "You know the bottle ain't to blame and I ain't trying to,    It don't make you do a thing, It just let's you."

I love Mike Cooley!  Go pick up his brand new solo live album.  Awesome Stuff.  Ask Ms. Penny Lane, she'll tell ya.

I have heard it. I am well aware of Penny's obsession with both of my favorite bands.Probably the only thing she has in common with this old bastard.

Along with Wilco, my favorite bands as well.  Although I usually trust her musical tastes quite a bit and I'm an old bastard too!    :wink:

My favorite Cooley bumper stickerism might be:

"Living in fear is just another way of dying before your time."


I also love that the last time I heard these Cooley lyrics live, Penny was at my side:

"You pack a pretty mean punch for such a pretty little dish."

Are you on the DBT forum? I started a thread about a year ago about Cooley bumper-stickers. Sometimes he has 5 or 6 great ones in a song.
