O.J. Simpson - The Simpson Boogie

The trial of the (20th) century captured the creative imagination of my lovely bride, and she wrote this song.

I finally got around to making a music video for it using After Effects + Type Monkey tools for the kinetic typography.

20 years later...

The Simpson Boogie
(c) 1996 Jeanne O'Lone/Magic Lamp Music

What’s the dope? Tell us what you know!
Did you ever party with OJ and Nicole?
Did you know their kids? Did you know their kin?
Tell us every little thing; every little sin

We gotta deadline to make, a story to break
we gotta ride to take, we got money to make!

No story is too small, no alibi too thin;
we wanna hear your story and you wanna let us in!
We got a camera and lights, we’ll make ya look real nice!
You’ll be famous for a minute on the news tonight!

We gotta deadline to make, a story to break
we gotta ride to take, we got money to make!

You got what we want, we want the story;
come on and let’s take a ride, let’s take a ride to fame and glory!

What’s the scene (confidentially)?
There’s more to this than meets the eye, just who was Ronnie G?
What’s the plot? Were they lovers or not?
Tell us evertyhing you know, and it’s better if it’s hot!

We gotta deadline to make, a story to break
we gotta ride to take, we got money to make!

Juror number three, now that’s he’s been freed,
can you tell us why you weren’t convinced that Simpson did the deed?
We need to know what comes next on this show,
cause innocence is boring and our rating’s getting low!

We gotta deadline to make, a story to break
a ride to take, we got money to make,
a ride to take, we got money to make! Yeah!
