Today’s music is AC/DC’s “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap”. I heard it on the radio yesterday, reminding me of the problem I have with the song.
Here are the lyrics where my problem with the song begins:
Pick up the phone, I’m always home
Call me any time
Just ring 362 436 oh
I lead a life of crime
My problem is, how are you leading a life of crime if you’re always home? I’ve heard of working from home, but come on, now. It’d be different if he didn’t go on and state that he’ll take care of things:
Pick up the phone, leave her alone
It’s time you made a stand
For a fee, I’m happy to be
Your back door man hey
If he’s a back door man, he’s not at home, is he? False advertising, that’s what it is. You gotta love that alliteration, though.
Love this song! Have you heard it by Joan Jett? She does an awesome cover.

Before posting this, I listened to the Joan Jett version. It is awesome. It starts out so differently and I enjoyed her vocals.

I like both renditions…I’d be hard pressed to pick one over the other.

Yes, I went with AC/DC because it was the original. Not always the case with my selections, just the one this time.
