Is there an uncensored “Bunker Bitch” version?

Magnificent! …to the tune of The Jitterbug, a piece which didn’t make the final cut of The Wizard of Oz film.

as i was listening to it i knew i recognized the song, but couldn’t place where it was from or even the original lyrics – then Randy tweeted about how pleased he was that an obscure tune from the Wizard of Oz was trending now thanks to everyone talking about it, and i thought “OOOHHhhhhhh! THAT’S IT!”
all that being said, i really really hope that “Bunker Boy” (finally) becomes the nickname we all agree on for him. it’s catchy, alliterative, and he probably HATES it. so it’s perfect.

(Robin Williams character was Rainbow Randolph)

IIRC, he’s said that it’s actually his birth name.

That should be called the “Neil Diamond effect”

Randy does some amazing stuff. The problem for me is that his songs can be very durable earworms. The last one like that was “Distraction,” which he sang to the tune of “Tradition,” from “Fiddler On The Roof.”

Maybe he felt like the word “bitch” was too problematic.

at 1:12 when he departs from his usual shtick to actually sing for about 2 seconds, it sounds pretty amazing.

Will “If He Only Had a Brain” be next?

“Bitch” is misogynist. “Boy” is infantilizing. I think he made the right call here.

Trump can be the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion all at once.
Who has the misfortune of being Trump’s Dorothy?

I’m imagining Ivanka with a shrunken Jared as Toto. Based on the recent church photo op, Melania could play the witch.

‘Desperate Cheeto’ to the tune of ‘Despacito’ is impossible to get out of your head.
