A Brisbane man has avoided embarrassment at a karaoke bar.
As a fan of ’90s African-American hip hop group ‘Trouble ‘n’ Justice’, Peter was surprised when a handful of TnJ songs were on his local karaoke bar’s playlist.
Enthusiastically choosing ‘Runnin’ from the Law’, Peter started well, but then ran into some trouble.
“‘Runnin” is one of their older songs, so I’d forgotten how often a certain word appears. You know the one,” Peter told Everyday News Staff Writers, who understood the implication.
“When that word appeared the screen, I started to panic, but I used some substitute words that still kept the rhyme scheme intact. I think I got away with it,” said Peter. “While I love TnJ, I don’t know why their songs are allowed in a karaoke bar. They’re not family friendly.”
Though Peter indulged his love of ‘Trouble ‘n’ Justice’ when he got home, listening to them on Spotify for an hour before he went to bed.
Everyday News is a brand new general news/parody section of The Gurgler, and definitely not a lame rip-off of ‘The Betoota Advocate’. We swear.
