I found Tuli's phone number on a website 20 years ago. I called and talked to him for a while. He sent me his latest book, "Teach Yourself Fucking" with an added sheet with the lyrics to, "The Inauguration Song." It was originally "The Age of Uranus" to be sung to the tune of "Age of Aquarius." Apparently he wrote it before the 2000 election. The lyrics are typed, originally "When the Stools are in the Gingrich House." He marked Gingrich out with blue sharpie on the first verse, replace it with "Bushgore." The second verse was originally typed "When the Pricks are in the Clintrich House." He replaced "Clintrich" with "Gorebush." I'm going to record myself.

But I couldn't get high! Oh, No! I don't know why, Oh, No! So I took out my pipe And I stuffed it full of grass I took out a match And I lit it real fast I huffed, I puffed I smoked and I toked But after awhile, my heart was nearly broke..... Cause I couldn't get high, Oh, No! Don't know why, Oh, No! So I got me a cube of LSD Sat down to wait For it to hit me I waited, meditated But couldn't get stoned I had to give up and head for home..... Cause I couldn't get high, Oh, no!

Don't take this particular version as an indication of the true quality of the Fugs. Get their first album and listen to the whole thing, and then render your verdict. They were actually talented and did some wonderful music, not to mention way ahead of their time. They played in N. Y. City and were a pivotal group. Think 50s beatniks, 60s George Carlin and Lenny Bruce, Captain Beef- heart, Frank Zappa, grunge, and more. They blew the doors off of everything conventional about America at that time. All of you free thinkers and Avant-garde artists owe them a debt for resetting all the goalposts..

***** I think you're getting things a bit confused here. I'm not at all talking about overproduced, boring stuff. Just professionalism. Being a musician, not just a wannabe musician, plus the Fugs didn't even bring anything new to the scene musically speaking. Most of the punk bands are dead and buried and, it's true, they couldn't play/compose. Those that had something different to offer are still remembered. You have to know what to do and how to do it, not just experiment chaotically, you don't have to sell your soul to the mainstream, quite on the contrary. You can be absolutely original and professional at the same time. That goes for anything you do in life. Well, I remember reading a book, many moons ago, whose author loved the Fugs and hated the Doors because the Fugs were, according tyo him, revolutionary while the Doors had sold out and meant nothing. The guy didn't know a thing. Forget Light my Fire. Everybody remembers the Doors but very few people even know the Fugs ever existed. That's just an example because of the said book. I'm not saying the Doors were the best thing that ever happened but at the time they were definitely original and professional. I may add many names throughout the ages but I'm sure you know them all.
