An Ode To Chris Claremont

Having looked back on Chris Claremont's body of work since his second comeback, (X-Treme X-Men #1), I now present my response to the news that he's been taken off "Uncanny X-Men". Sung to the tune of Ray Charles:

Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more

"What you say?"

Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more

"Oh woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean,
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
I guess if you say so
I have to pack my things and go."

That's right!

Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more

"What you say?"

Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more

"Now baby, listen baby, don't you treat me this way
'Cause I'll be back on my feet some day."

Don't care if you will 'cause it's understood
You ain't got no talent, you just ain't no good!

"Well, I guess if you say so
I have to pack my things and go."

That's right!

Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more

"What you say?"

Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Chris
Don't you come back to this
No more

"Well..."
Don't you come back to this...
"Uh, what you say?"
Don't you come back to this...
"I didn't understand you..."
Don't you come back to this...
"You can't mean that..."
Don't you come back to this...
"Oh, now baby, please!"
Don't you come back to this...
"What you tryin' to do to me?"
Don't you come back to this...
"Oh, don't treat me like that..."
Don't you come back to this...
