With Apologies to Warren Zevon

After a five month hiatus, el Greco has ended his hunger strike to free Paris Hilton. Unfortunately, Ms. Hilton was not nearly as thankful and generous as el Greco had assumed she would be and, thus, he finds himself back on the staff of Critical Cloud.


Kinda makes you wish for years past, when gentlemen would settle their matters of honor on the dueling field, don't it?

I am referring, of course, to the recent spat and near fisticuffs between San Francisco Supervisors Chris Daly and Bevan Dufty. Supervisor Daly, whom Critical Cloud has commented on previously, is still the same egotistical buffoon he has always been (the libel suits should be flying now) and in response another Supervisor (hottie Michaela Alioto-Pier) offered up some legislation to curb the uncouth behavior of Daly.

Here at Critical Cloud, we just thought we'd memorialize Daly's political career in a nifty song. So, if you can recall for just a moment the tune to Warren Zevon's Werewolves of London, just sing this new version we call:

Supervisor of Frisco

I saw Chris Daly with a pot club menu in his hand
Walking down the streets of SoMa through the trash
He was looking for a place called Herbal Health
For to smoke a big bowl of Lebanese hash
Aah ooh Supervisor of Frisco

If you hear him howling around your budget committee door
Better not let him in
Little old developer got mutilated late last night
Supervisor of Frisco again
Aah ooh Supervisor of Frisco

He's the hairy-handed danger who ran amuck in the Chamber
Lately he's been overheard dissin’ the Mayor
Better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Bevan
I'd like to meet his beadmaker
Aah ohh Supervisor of Frisco

Well, I saw Chris Daly walking with the Willie
Doing the Supervisor
I saw Chris Daly, Jr. walking with the Willie
Doing the Supervisor
I saw a Supervisor drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's
And his beard was perfect
Aah ohh Supervisors of Frisco
Draw blood

This is hilarious! I have heard that Daly doesn't do drugs -but I still love the line about his "beadmaker"!

I'm a Chris Daly supporter, since 2000, and a queer male, and I think he should run for Mayor, and beat Gavin Newsom, and to you, sir, I say "why don't you just go ahead and hit me, I know that's what you want to do".

Dear Anonymous:

That's great that you're a Daly supporter--misguided as that is--but in America you can support whomever you like. Queer male? Good for you, but Newsom sort of co-opted everyone on the gay issue.

But as far as hitting you goes? I never hit Daly supporters, ever. I'd prefer a battle of wits, but then again I'd never fight an unarmed man.
