01. Play Some Funk
AKA - What The Funk Are We Doing?
I don't wanna hear no words
From your little lying mouth
I'm so sick of your games
And the violence you spout
Take a look at yourselves
And tell me what you see
I can tell you now
I don't want that in me
Can You tell us
Your Master Plan
I don't believe it
In the end
You'll find yourself alone
By yourself
Convinced that you need
Someone else
What the fuck
Are we doing
Where the hell
Are we going
Whatever it is
It's all the game
Whatever it is
We're all the same
I hear a politician in Washington
I know he's full of shit
I wonder where he got that suit
And those girls with big tits
I know that someday I could be one
And then I'd make the bank
But there's one thing I can't stand
and that's {censored for good taste, this isn't a great song lyrically - sorry, I was young - Father Huey}
02. Nuclear Summer
Georgie was a mighty good man
Spreading freedom across the land
But then one day he fucked up
And sent some nuclear missiles up
And now these clouds are looming large
All because of the assholes in charge
And then some day you will hear
The words you so often fear
It's gonna be a nuclear summer
Nuclear summer, nuclear summer
Near and far, here and there
People are losing their hair
Nuclear summer, nuclear summer
03. The Perils of Live Performance
Drunks in bars are fun.
04. I Love You, etc, etc.
AKA - I Love You And I Miss You and I Just Can't Take It Anymore So I'm Going to End It All When I first saw you I loved you so The whiteness of your teeth And the ass your tight skirt showed So I would meet you Everywhere you'd go And walk you to every class Just so you'd know That my heart is true Though my hands do lie When they creep slowly Up your receding thigh But when you went away I had to no words to say And I got so mad That I felt I just had To call you up all night And slash your tires right So that some day I know That you would love me so So I followed you around Every day for a year Until you saw me And you began to fear The sound of emo blasting As I'd walk slowly near Now I have no place to live And a civil case But no restraining order Can dim my love And one day I swear you'll know The fire of my love I'm not a stalker But I loved you so Everything you do Is something I must know Don't fear my love my darling Just lie back and let me give My soul to your care so that we can share That closet where I live
05. The Bullshit Meter Dichotomy
AKA - The Bullshit Meter Has Gone Off They'll follow you everywhere (Yes they will) They know if you're here or there (Yes they do) They think they're next to God (Fucking morons) They watch you while you squat (While you squat) The DEA's gonna take me away In these matters I have no say And I ain't done shit But that's OK Because King Georgie Has had his way I used to be a nice guy But then I went to jail I learned to scarf the pud Lie cheat and steal All because of some asshole in washington Who doesn’t like the way I live Who cares if I can’t live my life Just as long as I don’t get drafted I swear I really don't care (No he don't) That I can't say my mind (Thought police) And that I don't believe (don't believe) The lies that come my way (All bullshit) What use is freedom When we have to hide From those we employ To save our hides I'm so angry I don't know what to do Maybe I'll watch some football And sniff some glue
06. Bring It On - The Clean Song
Note: This song was written to be an ironic comment on how the songs that follow had to have their lyrics edited to be suitable to sing on the radio. That's where interjections like "Intercourse the bloody penguin" come from. Of course the ultimate irony is the 2 track mix DJ Fred made of this that went out on the air has the vocals inaudible. Damn. I'm feeling kind of bad you know About the things that I might say I'm stuck here wondering now you know Should I close my lips and walk away If I don't who knows What will happen then Will they slap a fine on us And never let us play again We can't be obscene Even though we do it so well Because just one naughty word Will send us straight to hell We just want to play, you know And have us a good time So we will not be unclean And believe me that's just fine That's just fine...
07. OC Thug
He’s got close cropped hair
And a shiny white truck
He’s from the streets of Westminster
And he likes it rough
Wherever he goes
Follows a shroud of bleached rap
No one can touch him
He’s just too hot
So blast that brown candy
You Orange County dandy
The thug life’s just like
Playing little league
But be careful he’s got
His own flaming piece
And when such a sensitive guy
Has got a girl in his eye
Don’t get in his way
Cuz a playa’s gotta play
I see them walking
Down the street so tough
A dime a dozen
But they don’t care
They’re so different
But their look they share
Jesus they don’t have
Any fucking shame
They came they saw
They seized and they came
It’s a modern day love affair
But no one really cares
She’s his baby, he’s her man
And they admit it deadpan
They don’t got no self respect
And thought is something we can’t expect
I don’t care if they’re mental elves
I hope they marry and hang themselves
The thug life’s just like
Playing little league
But be careful he’s got
His own flaming piece
And when such a sensitive guy
Has got a girl in his eye
Don’t get in his way
Cuz a playa’s gotta play
08. The Fazers
Fine American beaches.
09. Furry Elise
Sorry Beethoven.
10. Dixie Tricks
Some people say what they mean And they mean what they say Now You know I wouldn’t have it Any other way But then there are those who Start speaking their mind Then start backpeddling like They’re committing a crime I’m not going to Speak and take offense Or say what I feel and then Worry about capital offense So fuck it and fuck you You heard what I said I don’t even care if It makes me end up dead We sit around thinking About all that’s wrong But we wouldn’t dare say it In the form of a song This apathy will Eat us all alive And force us in that friendly jet plane And go take a nose dive When the radio won’t play your records Then you know what’s the score Your personal freedom doesn’t matter If the money’s in the store Let’s all forget exactly What I just said My idea of freedom is Damaging my head I just don’t care about it Any old way And I won’t be satisfied Until I’ve had my say So speak you mind And then apologize You know I’m not you So I keep closed my thighs
11. Pipe Organ Boogie
Sorry Bach.
12. Funky Tuvan Interlude
Sorry... Tuva?
13. Little Goth of Mine
Goth girl, goth girl I love you You caught me with your angst I’m stuck but I can’t stay true Goth girl, goth girl I love you Even tho you’re stupid I love you You paint your face You dress in black You’re dead... Goth girl, goth girl Always be true Your poetry is terrible But your thighs taste so good If I had it my way I’d make you mine everyday Your skins as white As a fluorescent light Goth girl, goth girl I love you But I don’t think You’re quite as fucked up As you want Goth Girl Goth Girl Leave me alone
14. Poverty and Pornography
Sorry pornography.
