Genghis Khan Returns To Duluth

Picture of Me and Recently-Captured Wife

Genghis Khan, native son of the steep lands we call Duluth, will return this weekend. Under the quarter moon, Genghis Khan and his fellow warriors of Chicago will ride to Duluth and celebrate with the tribe in which he was born. The journey will be long, and full of danger but luckily Genghis Khan’s war horse is equipped with a Compact Disc Player.  Therefore, Genghis Khan seeks the opinion of the people of his homeland in one question:

What are some good songs that sing of the hills of Duluth and it’s people?

With your answers, Genghis Khan will conduct several raids on neighboring tribes for the chants and harmonious chords you suggest to compile in a “mixed CD”. This artifact will serve to set the mood and empower the warriors of Chicago for their experience of the Northland, an experience for which they can never truly be prepared.

May your cities be reduced to ashes,

Genghis Khan

  1. IT’S ON A HILL BUT THERE’S NOWHERE TO FALL
    THIS IS GRAVITY CENTRAL WHEN THE SIRENS CALL
    IT”S A THORAZINE-SHUFFLE FREE-FOR-ALL
    ON FOURTH STREET

    IT’S PAWN SHOPS, HIP-HOP AND PHANTOM STARES
    FROM RAMSHACKLE EYES UNDER RUNDOWN HAIR
    IT’S LAST CHANCE LIQUOR WITH A TWIST OF DESPAIR
    ON FOURTH STREET

    Genghis- tell me where to send you a free CD

  2. Genghis Khan gladly accepts tribute when placed in the custody of Lake Avenue Café. On Sunday night, Genghis Khan himself will be there to receive it and offer his generous thanks.

    May your lands be sown with salt,
    Genghis Khan
