Rodney King

Methinks people are taking themselves way too serious Lighten up people, it's getting to be quite supercilious “Can we all just get along” An old Rodney King song Passed away today, remembered when LA became nefarious

Many big words ending in 'us'//I only know little ones, like muss and fuss//which I will//up until//I'm run over by the time-is-up bus. 'IOUS' ON JACKSON!!!
