The Lyrics

Hey guys, I appreciate your efforts at perpetuating the story of my high school graduation in 1973, but it’s really not an accurate representation of the event because I’ve never told you the COMPLETE story. With that in mind, let’s all put on our rose-colored glasses and gather ‘round near the McNamara campfire to hear ‘bout the greatest, rootin’-tootin’ high-school story never told. YEE-HAW!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Sung by Gary McNamara, his cheerleader crush Sally, and a quartet of friends: Eric, Bobby, Tony, and Shneeb.)

It’s my high school graduation,
Right after tonight,
Lick a toad, bring out the lotion,
It’s My Last High School Night! (“Yee-haw!”)

Jack off to girls, play Steve Miller,
Marcia Brady’s sight,
We ain’t heard of Sally Eilers,
It’s My Last High School Night! (Giddy-up!)

They put nothin’ past us,
School and principal,
Makin’ one joint last us,
‘Til it’s the real world!

Homework? We really don’t read it,
We’ll make out alright,
Make love with girls, cuss at teachers,
It’s My Last High School Night!

After kissing each lady, we’ve got a scheme,
Wear cowboy hats, dance around, make a scene,
It’s so easy to get called names,
And the principal calls out on our cowboy games!

(Gary McNamara shoots a water-pistol at cheerleaders on the high school football team, while the principal runs after him with the final exam he forgot to study for.)
(While this is happening, his high school friends dance around with other students, not all necessarily of the opposite sex, with cowboy hats and anti-Vietnam War T-shirts)

We love to hear that Gary croon,
The last day he’ll do a cowboy tune:

If I didn’t know…
I’d host a talk show,
Then, no one would know,
Of my “Yee-haw!” blow!

Now listen here, high school kids, if I didn’t know…
…That I’d talk about this day on Red Eye Radio…
…Then I sure would be a SA-A-A-D man…
…If I didn’t know!

Homework? We really don’t read it,
We’ll make out alright,
Make love with girls, cuss at teachers,
It’s My Last High School Night!

Tardsy! You’re back! On behalf of the board, thank you for the reprieve. Was it because someone out there at Idiot Acres lost the crayon, or were you still trying to sound the words out from my replies the day before? I see you’re back to the Gary thing again, meaning the other five subjects you tend to beat into the ground will be making their appearance soon. Is it true that Cypress Hill did a song about you called “Insane ‘bout the mundane”?

^^^^^^^Wow, G&GBF-CopyBot, you had to go back a ways to find that reply. It was a response to your now-dead boyfriend when he (thankfully) missed 3 or 4 days in a row, and posted up his Gary M song upon his return. I noticed you weren’t on here for a couple days recently, and to be honest, I was hoping your absence had something to do with pool cleaning supplies…’cuz ya know you love to copy.

Hey Phil Ossifer, I realize you’re offended by me and my cowboy antics from half a century ago, hence the constant repetition of the same old insults, but don’t bash my entries until you’ve heard the OS. My father turned 98 this weekend and we reminisced about the high school graduation, the hoedown that followed, and other cowboy antics, even though I lived in New York half a century ago. Anyway, just needed to spread the word about my high school cowboy story while I still can before ChuckyG bans the topic in the name of “irrelevance”. Is there an emoji for chronic “philosophizing”? YEE-HAW!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW tried to submit two “Rhythm Steps” parodies this week…they were refused submission instantly. What does that say about the IQ of the guy running this site?
The Real Phil Ossifer - April 19, 2024 - Report this comment
What would I say? I’d say he realizes that the vast majority of us take pride in being funny and creative, which could draw more people to his site, while a couple outliers (eh, basically one now) lack the ability to do that and more or less show up and tell the same joke every day. So by banning your ‘tard anthem, he’s signaling that you’re pretty much a detriment with nothing positive to offer. I’m certain I’m not the only one who’d like to thank him personally.

Gotta say, as much as I detested each version of your ‘tard anthem, I couldn’t help but notice that your attempt to make a parody out of another geezer song was every bit as pathetic. On this board you’re basically the Affirmative Action kid who somehow found himself at MIT. Seems like what little talent you may have (debatable) would be better applied to making TikTok videos.

Phil Ossifer, thank you for letting everyone know how little you truly care about my amazing, funny and totally not made up cowboy hoedown from my last day of high school. Could an answering machine have the same experiences that I did in high school 50 years ago, when I obsessed over that cheerleader who was in a bunch of my classes, or when my friend Shneeb tried to perform the National Anthem by making body noises. So if you think that my story was nothing more than me yelling “Yee-Haw” during high school graduation, then you just missed the entire point of this entry. Giddy up, Phil Ossifer.

And I’m TOTALLY not projecting. ~ Gary McNamara, your favorite cowboy-hat wearin’, rootin’-tootin’ radio host heard by twelve people throughout the entire country at 4 AM in the parking lot of a Denny’s.

People should have just ignored this Gary McNamara clown from day one.

I lived in Dallas for 20 years so I’m pretty clued in on Gary. I still have no idea how he beat anybody out for a job at WBAP. At least with him we could just turn the dial. OTOH, I doubt he showed up and tried to do the same material every day. Perhaps there’s a lesson in that.

I’ve been reading AmIRight for the last year so I’m pretty clued in on your “commentaries”. I still have no idea how you think anyone still agrees with your comments. At least with my high school story you can just call it fake news. OTOH, I talk about my personal life 66% on the show and I use the same material every day. Perhaps there’s a lesson in that. Yee-haw!!!!!!! ~ Gary McNamara, your favorite cowboy-hat wearin’, rootin’-tootin’ radio host.

Gary MacNamara aint no cowboy…why would anyone allow this unfunny talk host troll to continue pooping out the same garbage regarding his high school “story”. Does anyone even care anymore

So, not gonna quit on your Gary obsession? Truth be told, I’m probably not the only user here who doesn’t give a crap. I’m still snickering at the thought of a double-digit IQ poster taking one brief moment of a radio broadcast and expanding it into some Western-themed high school graduation story with horses and hoedowns. The real Gary McNamara wouldn’t even have to bother trying to go along with this fake story, which has more holes in it than Swiss cheese. Do you honestly think you fool anybody with this stuff?

^^^^^ Unlike you, G&GBF-CopyBot, the real Gary McNamara wouldn't post stuff using someone else's name.
