When you’re out of Schlitz, you’re out of beer.
Well yeah, no Schlitz. 
I’ve been a Dan Fan for 50+ years and NEVER knew about this. What a find!

I remember that jingle melody and lyrics from Schlitz commercials when I was a kid. Did they write it and it got re-recorded by someone else, or did they cover the standard jingle Steely-Dan style?
Long time to get to the punchline, but it did make me laugh. Thanks.

Fact: Schlitz is used as a slang term for women’s genitalia in German.

Another chart-topper. Right up there with the Utica Club Natural Carbonation Beer Drinking Song.

One they left out: Stan Ridgway when he was with Wall of Voodoo (known for “Mexican Radio”).

Makes sense, since that was indeed a catch song. (Dang it.)

So this one time, I went to Sweden to meet Ingmar Bergman.
But he wasn’t there, or he just didn’t care.

Juxtaposition Tourism© is so high risk. Fans who went to Graceland when Elvis was alive know the pain.
I claim ownership.

They didn’t use the commercial and look what happened to Schlitz. Their fame in Milwaukee couldn’t save them.
