My coworkers will vouch for me when I say I got REALLY UPSET the other week when I found out that pansy liberal blog "The Awl" has a theme song -- written and performed by Ryan Adams, no less! In a fury, I typed an email with many misspellings that asked, "WHY DON'T WE HAVE A AWESOME THEME SONG?!" and many other things not displayable here. Then I found out that Selleck Waterfall Sandwich has a theme song, too. It was, like, if Hitler was in his bunker and got so mad when somebody pointed at a map (showing all the blogs that have theme songs) that he told almost everyone to get the fuck out of the room and started yelling and shaking while people stood outside looking worried. Yeah, it was like that.

So you know what? It's time Cream had a theme. Write one and record it! Send us a link (not an attachment in email, please)! First prize is you wrote the Cream theme! Second prize is a set of steak knives, etc. Go!

Can't the guy who did the Hermitage Lighting Gallery contest write the song? I am pretty sure they don't even use his jingle on the radio, which is JackedFM.

Get the guy who does all of Reverand TJ's theme songs on 1470 AM. Those are priceless.

I thought Prince already wrote the CREAM theme song?

We weren't a blog back then! Also, Wu-Tang wrote one, too, but same deal. Don't be lazy!

I should add that if you do, indeed, write a awesome theme song for the Cream, we will give you some sort of prize.

Na-na- Nashville cream
Spinnin’ things about the scene
Na-na-Nashville cream
Not as a hip as KoL’s skinny jeans
Na-na- Nashville cream
We show up late to everything
Na-na Nashville Cream
You say you hate us and we’re mean
Yet, the only bookmark you need
Leads you directly to
the na-na Nashville Cream.

Another option would R. Kelly's "Real Talk" because the song explains what is done here.

(borrowing Those Darlins melody "Wild One")
If you don't want a riled one
quit reading nashville cream
you knew right from the start
how nerd raging can be
if you can't handle daily
bands that aren't your scene
then you don't want a riled one
quit reading nashville cream
just a little bit o' fun to lighten things up around here
