R.I.P. JD Salinger

english extra credit

((VERSE 1))

Holdens Kicked Out school, gonna smoke all day,
Only Got good grades on his English essays
New York Train, gotta ease the pain
Thinkin of Strad in the backseat with Jane
Gets to the city always callin on the phone
Wants company, doesnt wanna be alone
Askin bout ducks cuz hes concerned about himself
The way to grow up like everybody else

((CHORUS))

The Catcher in the Rye (2x)
Thinkin of D.B., Phoebe, Jane all the time
So confused
Gotta clear up his mind
Hes suicidal

Holdens Dangerous, Dangerous (3x)
It was the oh no!

((VERSE 2))

Waitin for Sally, look at girls when they pass
Go skatin with Sally, lookin at her cute ass
Little Shirley Beans was his one little hope
Depressed as hell when the record broke
Found peace from Phoebe on the carousel
Hes a strange little kid, just a causeless rebel
Checks in at hotel, gonna Sunny ho
But gets beat up for not givin up his dough

Save the kids in the field, so innocent and small
From runnin through the rye, abououout (about) to fall
Seein flits in the bar with Lucy,
Hes matured—chillin with a woman in her late 30s
((CHORUS))

The Catcher in the Rye (2x)
Thinkin of D.B., Phoebe, Jane all the time
So confused
Gotta clear up his mind
Hes suicidal

Holdens Dangerous, Dangerous (3x)
It was the oh no!

((VERSE 3))

Thinkin bout his death in the middle of the Park
Gets even more depressed cuz its cold and dark
Trippin everywhere cuz James Castle died
Cant stop thinking about Jane; his brain gettin fried
Mr. Antollini gave some strong advice,
but hand in hair? Either youre checkin for lice
Or youre a pervert, so dont touch me there
Holden left cuz he felt really scared.

((CHORUS))

The Catcher in the Rye (2x)
Thinkin of D.B., Phoebe, Jane all the time
So confused
Gotta clear up his mind
Hes suicidal

Holdens Dangerous, Dangerous


Thanks to the Ying Yang Twins

  • This song just about killed me. It really did.

  • If you do something too good, then, after a while, if you don’t watch it, you start showing off. And then you’re not as good any more.

    You guys won't ever have to worry about showing off.

  • This is suicidal

    This song's Dangerous, Dangerous (3x)

    This was the oh no!

  • hahahaha

    

  • I think this song is actually pretty impressive for a few high schoolers to make.

  • I just wanna say that all you guys need to shut up and stop judging this song like this song is #1 on the billboards or something and you think its crap. My brother and three of his friends made this song for fun after reading this book for their english class. Their teacher heard the song so he gave them all extra credit. This wasnt meant to be a really good song with good audio. They just recorded themselves singing it on their computer. Stop judging my brother. It makes me angry, but sad too.

  • XD

  • Hahaha this is zoo funny, it had me smiling the whole time! Good job

  • What retards wrote and sang this crap?

  • Vile, freaking vile. Urghhhhhhhhh

  • What the hell does this have to do with the book ?

  • @hazykce He actually called Jane, but she didn't pick up.
