Erik Satie - The Essential Collection

Music by Jim Miller and lyrics by Suzanne Cloud. Musicians: keyboardist Mark Knox, drummer Jim Miller, vocals Suzanne Cloud and Mark Knox

If you are absolutely put off by today's media coverage of our world - please listen. Most of the lyrics are composed of industry jargon insiders use in the biz. Here they are and their meanings:
"SLAP shot (=stupid, live and pointless), talking bean (=vacuous taking head)
Cable, keeps it cheese (=schmaltzy story or anchor chat producers hate but viewers love)
Greta (Van Susteran from Fox News), back to you. We know you’ve got things to do.
Hair cut (=the on-camera talent), mike stand (=photographer's term for reporters), too
Bird block (=satellite-feed newscast segment), Brady Bunch (=team coverage video effect; the screen is split into boxes)
Bat phone (=direct line from producers to anchors), out to lunch
Dog lick (=live shot irrelevant to story), neat trick
Straight live (=reporter stands there and explains what's happening, no tape), oh my!
Three A's (='ask any asshole'), slow fade, train wreck (=on-air newscast crash)
Newsroom, boom boom, all jive.

Christie’s (Chris Christie – Gov of NJ) grip and grin (=candidate photo-op)
Hot roll (=rolling tape from the live truck during the newscast), newsgasm (=big disaster story)
Big board (=giant TV screen in back of reporter) with anchorettes (=attractive but inexperienced female anchors)
Dave’s (David Gregory) gone from Meet the Press
War zones with standup tease (=upcoming story promo)
BOPSA (=generic shot of a 'bunch of people standing around'), diggin' sleaze
Go get what's next, forget context
Warm props (=background newsroom employees seen in wide shots of the studio floor during newscasts), don't stop, train wreck
Newsroom, boom boom, all jive

Newtown (Sandy Hook massacre), hose and go (=shoot as much video as possible)
Smotherage (=teams of reporters on the same story), never slow
Truth told? Let's get real! Fuzz was (=any sensational story with cops and dead bodies), sex appeal
Stakeout (=packs of photographers and reporters waiting for something or someone), scandal rules, ratings, silly fools.
Wire fire (=wiring a mic' on a remote interview guest so the studio anchor can fire questions), old liars, flop sweat
Newsroom, boom boom, all jive.
Push the suck button (=a directorial or other major on-air technical mistake) and cue the Jesus lights" (=camera filters that create a 'star effect' on the studio lighting).*

This satirical tune was written by Jef Lee Johnson with lyrics by Suzanne Cloud, who is singing it from the perspective of a clueless "smooth jazz" fan. On the cut is saxophonist Ben Schacter and drummer Jim Miller. Guitar and bass is by Jef. This song first appeared in 1996 on the CD "With a Little Help from my Friends" on the Dreambox label and was recently reissued in the Fall of 2014. You can buy the entire CD on CD Baby http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/SuzanneCloud
