Song for a Newbie

To the tune of “Comfortably Numb”

Hello (hello hello hello) is there anybody in there?
Just post if you can hear me:
Is there anyone home?
Come on (come on come on) now, I've put my intro down;
You can ease my pain
Help me achieve forum fame.
Relax (relax relax relax); you'll need some information first?
Just the basic facts? Well it could be a whole lot worse.

I am not into heavy metal
For me it's only jazz and soul.
I don't like the charts one little bit:
Their lips move, but I don't care what they're singing.
When I was a child I heard Miles Davis
My head burst just like a balloon.
Now I've got that feeling once again,
I can't explain, you would not understand:
This is just how I am.
But
I want to be part of the gang.

I want to be part pf the gang.

Okay (okay okay okay) I'm gonna make a thread now
“Which is the best” ARRRRGGHHHHHHH!
Do threads like that make you feel sick?
Getting some replies now:
I do believe it's working. Good.
That'll get me known around this place
You all will know my face.

I do not like rap, punk or country:
Coltrane and Davis are my guys.
I can only listen to good jazz:
It's just the kind of music I was brought up on.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse
Of pop music on the radio;
I turned the knob and it was gone, I tuned into a jazz station instead
And now I'm a jazzhead.
I want to be part of the gang.
