Thanks to Karaoke-version.com, I've now got a (nearly) fully functional theme song! You may recall I blogged about this awhile ago, when I posted the lyrics to "I Pawed a Blog," which is a musical parody of "I Fought the Law," by the Bobby Fuller Four (1966). Now that we have a Karaoke soundtrack for the song (a bargain at $1.99 per download), will a music video be far behind? Apparently not.
Since it's Karaoke, you'll have to sing along with the music. Don't worry about being out-of-key; it doesn't stop my "cub" reporter, Harley Quinn, or my homeland security special correspondent, Gracie ("Baby"). [You've probably read some of their special blog postings, but here (and here) are a couple of samples. And here, too.] These two howl something fierce, and shrill doesn't even begin to describe it.
So SING ALONG, why don't ya? You know you want to. Yes, you slobberdogs may join in the chorus.

P.S. As a point of reference, here's the original song, "I Fought the Law," by the Bobby Fuller Four (1966).
P.P.S. Did you know that the Crickets first recorded "I Fought the Law" (1959)? Sonny Curtis of the Crickets wrote the song, which was recorded a few months after Buddy Holly was killed in a plane crash.
