The Ballad of Billy John - Trevor Moore

Billy John was a simple man, worked in the fields most his life

He provided for his wife and kids and left his dreams on the side

One day when the kids left home billy picked up his guitar

It had been awhile but his fingers still knew how to reach the heart

Played a song about life and love, his hopes and regrets

Then with a little problem from the Mrs. he put it on the internet

When the views started pouring in, tears of joy started to fall

Then they scrolled to the comment section and this is what they saw

Eat a bag of shit cuntface

Go blow your fucking dad

This shit just raped my ears never heard nothin so bad

I hope you fucking die

And I hope you get aids

You should just kill yourself

You’re a fag

Lol gay

Billy’s wife watched her husband as he shrugged and tried to smile

He put his guitar away and stopped and stared at it for awhile

She knew he felt like a fool and he’d never play again

So she turned on her webcam and her message began

She said

The man you’ve hurt tonight, I’ve watched for 35 years

He’s got a kind and gentle soul and thanks to you

That soul is in tears

And the people said

Shut the fuck up fatty

Show us your tits

One out of ten I wouldnt bag

I bet she’d try to eat your dick

You should go get sterilized

So that you cant have kids

Then they photoshopped a bunch of pictures of her covered in jizz

Well the video went viral

Huh, fifty-seven million hits

Billy John’s wife became a meme on the internet

They played the clip on cnn and read tweets about her weight

Cause I guess thats the sorta thing that the news does nowadays

Billy John and his wife did nothing wrong, and they weren’t dumb

They just hadnt paid attention to what we’d all become

But a couple weeks later, after avoiding it for sometime

A broken down and changed Billy John finally went back online

He found a page of a blogger, still makin' fun of his wife

He signed up, made an account and this is what he typed

Eat a bag of shit cuntface

Go blow your fucking dad

Your shit just raped my eyes, never read nothin' so bad

I hope you fucking die

And I hope you get aids

And the world lost a Billy John and it gained more of the same
