Aging MSNBC Host Ruins Elvis Costello and Sex For Everyone, Ever

Joe Scarborough was on Jimmy Fallon's show last night, and he wanted to work through his mid-life crisis by playing some rock'n'roll guitar. So he played an Elvis Costello song about desperately wanting to get laid, with the Roots.

Costello has done a thing or two to tarnish his own reputation in his later years—his Sundance Channel chat show is pretty embarrassing. And that stupid hat! But the spectacle of seeing a Gingrichite ex-congressman who once represented the murder of an abortion doctor playing "Mystery Dance" and actually crossing his legs mid-song has killed rock'n'roll again, for the thousandth time. It's like when we found out that George W. Bush likes Alejandro Escovedo.

...except for those of us who recall the original, and have some inkling of what the song's about.
