Because hell, hell is for readers
And you know that our little lives can become such a bore
Hell, hell is for readers
And we shouldn’t have to read this dreck
No realistic teen oriented issues?
No, hell is for readers!

You’re nuts! Mimi isn’t flirting with you, she’s flirting with ME!
Title from J. Geils of course.
My blood runs cold
My memory has just been sold
My Mimi is the centerfold
Mimi is the centerfold

Hey, they’ve got a lot of expenses. Big money involved to “coincidentally” have star athletes luckily transfer to Milford.
Another obvious song reference in the title, Cocaine of course, written by J.J. Cale.

Yikes, Katy looks……really odd today. Is she about to throw up? She must have read the rest of the script.
Title comes from David Bowie, I’m sure everyone figured that one out pretty quickly.

No comeback, Tom Selleck? Must be still mad he’s in this strip.
Title from Aerosmith, of course.

Mr. Bookman! My favorite guest character from Seinfeld. His dialog is almost exactly from the show, with a couple of minor obvious changes.
Title from early Tom Petty, of course.
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day this story drags on
You read it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting (for a good story) is the hardest part

Seriously, if that’s supposed to be meat, I’m pretty sure it isn’t supposed to be purple. Unless it is unicorn meat or something. And then Mrs. Burrito breaks out into song:
Don’t wanna argue, I don’t wanna debate
Don’t wanna hear about what kind of food you hate
You won’t get no dessert ’till you clean off your plate
So eat it
Don’t you tell me you’re full
– “Eat It” by Weird Al Yankovic

Good old Meatloaf!
Ain’t no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
‘Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed

She’s got neck, she knows how to use it
Her boyfriend begs, he knows how to bite it
Her dad will whine, all of the time
Just grunts at Zane, at library time
Oh, we want her, said, we got to have her
The girl is not CK, she’s alright (oh)
– Apologies to ZZ Top and their smash hit, Legs.

Well, looks like Andy Capp got to Marty after all. So much for being on the wagon. I’m guessing it’s pretty bad, as I assume Marty must have puked all over his original outfit last inning. He started the game wearing green, and now he’s in blue.
Today’s title comes from Foreigner’s album and single.
