The Johnny Cash "FOLSOM PRISON" PARODY - conception co.

Here's a reply to request from FOUR PRISONERS who escaped from jail the other day. The got out because they were no match for TWO FEMALE guards. 

They contacted the blog and wrote, "How about posting a funny prison song?" 

You got it, guys. 

Below is a laugh-a-minute parody of "Folsom Prison Blues." Guys, you can download it or hear it online on whatever laptop you stole. Where are you, making your way East to fuck Joyce Mitchell?

When these guys are captured, they'll probably be charged with VIOLATING THE #METOO movement. You guys deliberately overpowered two FEMALE guards, and that's very sexist of you. 

Since women can do ANY job as well as a man, including guarding MALE PRISONERS, you four will have to be charged with a hate crime against women. You misogynists. You acted like common criminals. 

This obscure parody of "Folsom Prison Blues" was done in 1972 by the Conception Corporation.  They, along with Credibility Gap and Congress of Wonders, tried to be broader, bolder versions of the hallucinogenic Firesign Theater.

The Corporation open with a nudge-nudge in-joke reference to Lenny Bruce, inventor of "Yaddi-yadda" via his prison bit "Father Flotski's Triumph." Maybe the funniest thing about the parody is the crowd sound effects...how easily an audience can be manipulated into cheers or boos. 

The original "Folsom Prison Blues" could've gotten Johnny Cash locked up for plagiarism. (This was back in the day when plagiarism and piracy were actually considered criminal activity). See, the melody for the tune is actually "Crescent City Blues." Johnny may have thought it was just an old folk song when he grafted the new lyrics onto it. Legend has it that he offered to switch the tune around but Sam Phillips, owner of Sun Records, said it wasn't worth fussing with. When the song became a hit, the original composer sued and won a settlement.

The lyrics are a tad funny. All Johnny did was get arrested for vagrancy. Here, he's a mean cuss who claimed to have shot a man in Reno just to watch him die. That's worth a chuckle. I myself was in Nevada once, and I shot some craps in Reno just to watch them die.
