Still Jail-Free After All These Years - A Parody | Freedom Toast & Don Caron

Some of us have been watching expectantly as one charge after another against Punkin’-Face moves through the courts successfully. Will he ever get the type of justice that would be meted out to any average US citizen? Well that remains to be seen. In the meanwhile, he’s entirely “jail-free.“ Parody of Still Crazy After All These Years by Paul Simon.

He’s not gonna fade   Now he orders some Big Macs and watches T V The news says that they might put him away But instead, he will make payments to a jury of his peers Still jail-free after all these years He’s still jail-free It‘s crazy Still jail-free after all these years About the Source Music “Still Crazy After All These Years“ is a song by the American singer-songwriter Paul Simon. It was the third and final single from his fourth studio album of the same name (1975), released on Columbia Records. Though the song briefly reached the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S., it was a bigger hit on the magazine’s Easy Listening chart, where it peaked at number four. Rolling Stone critic Paul Nelson considered “Still Crazy After All These Years“ to be the best song on the album. He praises the “poignancy and openness“ of the first verse and Brecker’s passionate sax solo, and the fact that the song demonstrates “the fierceness of [Simon’s] will.“ Billboard described the song as “a superb ballad with excellent lyrics and excellent instrumentation.“ Cash Box called the song “a moving, tender ballad“ with “flawless“ production and a “perfectly constructed“ melody. Record World said that the style “is warm and reflective in a way that anyone can latch onto.“ Simon has performed the song several times on the late-night comedy series Saturday Night Live. He first performed the song on October 18, 1975 during the show’s first season. Simon performed the song a second time during the show’s second season, airing just before Thanksgiving in 1976; Simon comically wore a turkey costume and stopped halfway through the track to complain about the outfit to Lorne Michaels. Simon’s most recent performance of the song was for the show’s Saturday Night Live 40th Anniversary Special in 2015. In 1979 Paul Simon suggested to Karen Carpenter that she should include a version of the song on her solo album, then in preparation which was also being produced by Phil Ramone. She had Simon change the words ’crapped out’ to ’crashed out’. This recording was released in 1996.
