Articles in Sweden

All mayor Swedis papers had big articles to celebrate Leonard this weekend. Dagens nyheter even had the audacity to call my book "The man who ..." "wonderful and a great tribute. Basically the whole article was based on my writing.

enough. I wrote this one. I know L will love it.

I said to Phil Spector
When does it start
Phil Spector
Answered with a fart

You out your ass
Out there on a line
For some of us assholes
That´s just dandy and fine

But people want a herp
People want some kiond of God
That brings us back to Zero
Thepoke us with their rod

They make us do an Elvis
And sing at Heavens Gate
I guess I always knew it
This sell out was my fate

Trust me! You will burn in hell for that comment.Then again. This is the poem Phil Spector sent to Leonard:


Come on there, my Jewish friend
A bad record isn´t always the end
Look at me, I could have killed you
Instead I kind of filled you

with the resentment of being alive

I took the shot you always wanted to
I killed Suzaanne the second for you
When I put that gun to your head
Really, everything was already said

so now go and take that stage dive
