Rocky Raccoon Dead or Alive Poll
In my feeble attempt to get to the bottom of this, as me and the wbf are still discussing it. I am in no means attempting to prove him wrong, or myself right, I am really just curious what people think.
My take is alive: Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of dakota There lived a young boy named rocky raccoon And one day his woman ran off with another guy Hit young rocky in the eye, rocky didnt like that He said Im gonna get that boy So one day he walked into town Booked himself a room in the local saloon
Rocky raccoon checked into his room Only to find gideons bible Rocky had come equipped with a gun To shoot off the legs of his rival His rival it seems had broken his dreams By stealing the girl of his fancy Her name was magil and she called herself lil But everyone knew her as nancy
Now she and her man who called himself dan Were in the next room at the hoe down Rocky burst in and grinning a grin He said danny boy this is a showdown But daniel was hot - he drew first and shot And rocky collapsed in the corner
Now the doctor came in stinking of gin And proceeded to lie on the table He said rocky you met your match And rocky said, doc its only a scratch And Ill be better, Ill be better doc as soon as I am able
Now rocky raccoon he fell back in his room Only to find gideons bible Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt To help with good rockys revival
The Gideon’s are a sect of the church that leaves Bible’s in hotels for patrons to read while they stay. Seriously, the next time you’re in a hotel, look for The Bible in the nightstand – more times than not, it will have been left by the Gideon’s…
And the response, as far as I’m concerned, doesn’t get to the point of living or dying (remember the male ego when interpreting “only a scratch”). No the lines after that with “Checked out” and “Revival” are still the keys…although I do like the humiliated angle a little…so if you want to think he lived, then he lived humiliated and with no girl…also a pretty happy ending…

I am pleased you agree canucklehead, although I am wondering if your agreeing with me is purely a ploy to get me to switch sides.
ReplyDeleteI will give you the benefit of the doubt for now though, and assume that you are being sincere.
