    Some of us are simply JUDicious. Please don't confuse the two conditions. That would be preJUDicial.

    Hey Jud, don't make it bad
    Take a sad song and make it better
    Remember to let her into your heart
    Then you can start to make it better

    Hey Jud, don't be afraid
    You were made to go out and get her
    The minute you let her under your skin
    Then you begin to make it better

    And any time you feel the pain
    Hey Jud, refrain
    Don't carry the world upon your shoulder
    For well you know that it's a fool
    Who plays it cool
    By making his world a little colder

    Na, na, na, naa-naa
    Na-na-naa, naaa

    Hey Jud, don't let me down
    You have found her, now go and get her (let it out and let it in)
    Remember (hey Jud) to let her into your heart
    Then you can start to make it better

    So let it out and let it in
    Hey Jud, begin
    You're waiting for someone to perform with
    And don't you know that it's just you
    Hey Jud, you'll do
    The movement you need is on your shoulder
    Na-na-na, na
    Na-na-na, na, yeah

    Hey Jud, don't make it bad
    Take a sad song and make it better
    Remember to let her under your skin
    Then you'll begin to make it better

    Better, better, better, better (I'm begging you) better, oh!

    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud

    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (Jud)
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (Jud, Jud, a Jud, a Jud, a Juda-Juda)

    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (Jud, Jud, Jud, Jud, Jud)
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (Hey, you know you can make it, Jud)
    Jud, you're not gonna break it

    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa (don't make it bad, Jud)
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (take a sad song and make it better)
    Jud, hey Jud, woah!
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa (Jud)
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (yeah, hey, hey, hey, hey)

    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (now Jud, Jud, Jud, Jud, Jud, Jud!)
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud
    Na, na, na, na-na-na-naa
    Na-na-na-naa, hey, Jud

    Please tell me you copied and pasted that and added the "Juds" manually. Because if you typed it all out yourself....

    The lyrics could use a little tweak:

    Hey Jud
    He's such a stud
    Take a problem and make it bigger
    Remember
    Complaining is an artform
    Then you begin the bitch and gripefest

    Ah yes, the great master Walter Tevis. The one nobody's ever heard of.

    I looked him up. He wrote, "The Man Who Fell to Earth", "The Hustler", and "Queen's Gambit". I don't know if that makes him a 'neglected master', but I think we can all agree he has been more successful than me!

    That’s because he’s neglected.

    Well I love the film adaptations of those first two, so there’s that I suppose. I just liked the sound of the blurb for this Mockingbird.

    Wow! Well see, if they had included this little brief but important statement I would have no problem considering him a 'neglected master'.

    Well, to be fair, most of his success lies outside of Science Fiction. And while he might be a master, or even a neglected master. I don't think his bio supports a designation of, a "Neglected Master of Science Fiction".

    I really liked "The Queen's Gambit", if you haven't seen it {In the USA, Netflix, IIR, maybe Amazon}. Well worth the effort of trying to see it.

    I've only seen The Hustler but that film is so iconic.

    Well, I’m currently browsing my DVD shelves looking for tonight’s film. I felt like I needed a Tom Cruise fix so settled on Minority Report, but maybe I need to look this up, see if it’s something I’d fancy.

    ETA: I see The Queen’s Gambit is a 2020 mini series. The ‘mini-series‘ and ‘2020‘ is enough to put me right off. Back to Tom Cruise.

    Oh, man. If you like your films with a slow burn, and slightly weird / obscure, I urge you to check out TMWFtE. It’s brilliant.
