SUCK A CHEETAH'S DICK (THEN WATCH THIS DOCUMENTARY)

If you're looking for the best way to kill an hour at work on Friday afternoon, Daniel Bitton's 2003 documentary, Wesley Willis: The Daddy of Rock 'N' Roll, has just been released for freesies by Sea of Sound.

If you haven't seen this one, it's more of a fly on the wall documentary filmed while hanging out with Wesley for a few weeks rather than a retrospective on his life and career. It follows him riding around Chicago on buses, writing classic lyrics at Kinko's (suck an Arabian camel's ass with Cary's sugar-free syrup), and recording in the studio.

Of course, we all know that Wesley liked to write songs about his pals just as much as he did about bestiality, and the film tails him on visits to the houses of some of his best friends, one of whom he puts down for a three CD pre-order of his next album.

In short, it's an unbiased look at a brief time in his life with interviews from people who used to think he was crazy, but later realized he wasn't just a weird, humongous homeless person, but a nice and hilarious guy with nice and hilarious things to say about almost everyone except for Nixon and Superman.

Anyhows, the whole thing is below. We promise it's better than whatever the hell else you had going on in the next hour.
