H\u00f8rte rigtig meget Sparks, when a young kid in Viborg. De to Mael-br\u00f8dre – pin-up-sanger Russell og Adolf Hitler-lookalike-sangskriver Ron – k\u00f8rte ret bizarre sangtekster, der her, i en sang fra Sparks\u2019 1976-album \u2018Big Beat\u2019, resulterer i et helt andet take p\u00e5 Mississippi\u2019s storhed end Johannes V\u2019s:<\/p>\n

I BOUGHT THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER<\/p>\n

I bought the Mississippi River
\nOf course that don\u2019t include the towns
\nOr the people
\nAround the Mississippi
\nWell, to clinch the deal the man threw
\nIn a boat with crew
\nAnd then I knew I\u2019d better grab that
\nRiver fast
\nIt wouldn\u2019t last
\nThey never do, they never do
\nIt wouldn\u2019t last, last, last<\/p>\n

So now I own the Mississippi
\nI couldn\u2019t decide if I should leave it there
\nOr tug it out West with me
\nThe best thing was to think about it,
\nNot to make a move I might regret
\nCause then I\u2019d have to have the
\nMississippi sent back East, complete
\nWith boat and crew
\nThat wouldn\u2019t do, do, do<\/p>\n

It\u2019s mine, all mine
\nIt\u2019s mine, all mine<\/p>\n

Do rivers ever need companions
\nShould I enquire if the Seine is
\nAvailable, yeah, I would rather have
\nA classy little Frenchy than a Nile or
\nA Tybo, oh
\nNow wait a minute, how about the
\nAmazon, now that could be real fun
\nFor Mississippi, for Mississippi,
\nFor Mississippi, my Mississippi<\/p>\n

I hope that I didn\u2019t make an error
\nI hope this ain\u2019t a lot more trouble
\nthan it\u2019s all really worth<\/p>\n

\u00a9 Ron Mael<\/p>\n
