This week it’s Pyongyang Town from the 2017 release Random Acts Of Commandment by Albany Park Wirephoto. APW is my side project started with my writing partner and wife, Kathleen White. Sadly KT is no longer with us physically but her spirit lives on in the work. This particular song is an ode to Dennis Rodman.
I’m going down to Pyongyang Town The devil may care But I can’t say why I’m going down To Pyongyang Town I’m going down To Pyongyang Town The little man called for a Soju toast So I packed my rings and a wedding gown Cuz I’m going down To Pyongyang Town I’m going down From Chicago off the ground Called up the Chief but he never calls me back No, No But a player’s gotta play and the man he pays in cash It’s my backboard to crash You can’t cry foul if you’ve never been hacked Oh no And it ain’t your party and it ain’t your crown I’m going down To Pyongyang Town I’m going down yeah From Chicago off the ground I’m going down To Pyongyang Town
