Who Writes a Poem About Greg K?
 - "Melyssa K" Kennedy 1/19/13

There once was a man
Whose last name none could say
So he decided
To go with Greg K

He is a mystery
That no one can solve
The one thing we know
Is that he plays golf

Smiles more than you think
Talks more than you know
He is the silent one
Who steals the show

He does what he wants
He says what he pleases
He rocks on the stage
And then quickly leaves

He sways playing bass
We all know this
Sings perfectly, too
A note never missed

I feel lucky that
He once smiled at me
He's not just a badass
He's also sweet

He'll never see
The things that we write
Or know he inspires
But it's all right

I am not sure
What else to say
So I'll end with this
Happy Birthday, Greg K!
Asshole!
Here's my drawing of Greg K, which earned me a smile from the man himself at a concert: [link]

Today is Greg K's birthday. He's the bassist of my favorite band, the Offspring. He's the one in the band who goes largely unrecognized but is so badass! I was lucky enough to be in the front row when I saw them in September and Greg smiled and waved to me when he saw the sign and drawing I made for him, saying, "I smile whenever Greg K sings."

If you have not seen the Wembley performance, you won't get why I called him an asshole. [link]
