di Primus

When the going gets tough
And the stomach acids flow
The cold wind of conformity
Is nipping at your nose
When some trendy new atrocity
Has brought you to your knees
Come with us we'll sail the
Seas of Cheese
Il tuo voto:
Here they come
Here come the bastards

I heard it from a confidant -
Who heard it from a confidant
They're definitely on their way
There's one with this idea
Something about a
hammer head shark
Nosehairs and flatus
Best keep your distance because

Here they come
here come the bastards

Bury your head deep in the sand
Anonyminity is a virtue
in this day and age
Amazing hand dexterity
Flagrant misuse of security
Better run, run, run, run, run
Run Run Run Run, here they come.
Il tuo voto:
Sergeant Baker is my name
I'm gonna teach you how to play the game of warfare
Suddenly it appears to me
You got a bit much dignity for your own good, boy
(Yes sir, yes sir)

I will rape your personality
Pummel you with my own philosophy
Strip you of your self integrity
To make you all just a bit like me

I said right, left, right, left

Sergeant Baker, here again
And if you call me Puddin' Tame
Well, I'll stomp you down, boy
(Uh-huh)
Steers and queers, steers and queers
Where you come from there's just steers and queers
And you ain't got no horns, boy
(Yes sir, yes sir)

I will rape your personality
Pummel you with my own philosophy
Strip you of your self-integrity
To make you all just a bit like me

I say right, left, right, left
I say right, left, right, left

One, two...

Sergeant Baker is my name
I'm gonna teach you how to play the game of warfare
Suddenly it appears to me
You got a bit much dignity for your own good, boy
(Yes sir, yes sir)

I said right, left, right, left
(repeat)
Il tuo voto:
In a town in southernmost Sicily
Lived a family too proud to be poor
In the year that fever took father away
They hastened for American shores
Now a mother and her son are standing in line
It's a cold day on Ellis Isle
And they look to the Statue of Liberty
For the boy we have American Life

Ong is a Laotian refugee
He works in the audio trade
The smoke from flux is filling his lungs
He's earning minimum wage
Spending spare time down on
San Pablo ave
Once a week gets a woman for the night
And he writes home tales of prosperity
For the boy we have American Life

Bob is an unemployed veteran
Born and bred in the South Bronx
He's living off the streets down in east L.A.
Residing in a cardboard box
Now he plays a little quit and he has a small dog
Searching for aluminum cans
And he hold on tight to his dignity
He was born into American Life
Il tuo voto:
Jerry was a race car driver
He drove so goddamned fast
He never did win no checkered flag
But he never did come in last
Jerry was a race car driver
He'd say "El solo number one"
With a bocephus sticker on his 442
He'd light 'em up just for fun

Captain Pierce was a fireman
Richmond engine #3
I'll be a wealthy man when I get a dime
For all the things that man taught to me
Captain Pierce was a strong man
Strong as any man alive
It stuck in his craw
That they made him retire at the age of 65

"Dog will hunt"

Jerry was a race car driver
22 years old
Had too many cold beers one night
And wrapped himself around a telephone pole
Il tuo voto:
I just can't seem to blend
Into society
I have no hope for this dim
Simplicity of law and order
By whose rules I see no rhyme in
the reason
I hold no hope for this holy treason
Of love and so soft
By whose standards
They tell me, they tell me
Who are they, who is they
Il tuo voto:
My socks and shoes always match
Is it luck?

There's a foot at the end of each of my legs
Is it luck?

Well, I can play my bass for you
Is it luck?

Some gals like to kiss my face
Is it luck? Is it luck

Is it luck? x5
Is it luck, luck, luck, well is it?

There was food inside your mouth today
Is it luck?

Your barber cuts your hair just so
Is it luck?

Well, you can caunt to ten and back again
Is it luck?

When the taste of sex is on you lips
Is it luck? Is it luck?

Is it luck? x5

Is it luck, well is it?

Cyanide works oh so fast
Is it luck?

Polyester makes you sweat
Is it luck?

If a grahm cracker gets you off
Is it luck?

Love, Love?
Is it luck? Is it luck?

Is it luckx6

Is it luck, well is it?

Said she wanted my body, not my mind.
So, I showed her my dictionary,
showed her the words that I know,
not quite desiring to and how loquacious
I can be when I set my mind down to it.
But she wasn't impressed.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!!!
She wasn't impressed at all, she whispered in my ear.
She whispered in my ear and she said
"Do you want to get lucky, little boy?"
Well, I smiled. Smiled and I said

Is it luck? x6
Is is luck?
Luck x17

Is it luck? x4
Il tuo voto:
" well I remember as though it were a meal ago"

Said Tommy the Cat as he reeled back to clear whatever foreign matter
may have nestled its way into his mighty throat.
Many a fat alley rat had met its demise while staring point blank down
the cavernous barrel of this awesome prowling machine.
Truly a wonder of nature this urban predator.
Tommy the cat had many a story to tell,
But it was a rare occasion such as this that he did.

She came slidin' down the alleyway like butter drippin' off a hot biscuit.
The aroma, the mean scent, was enough to arouse suspicion in even the
oldest of Tigers that hung around the hot spot in those days.
The sight was beyond belief.
Many a head snapped for double - even triple - takes as this vivacious
feline made her her way into the delta of the alleyway where the most
virile of the young tabbys were known to hang out.

They hung in droves. Such a multitude of masculinity could only be
found in one place...
And that was O'malley's Alley.

The air was thick with cat calls (no pun intended),
But not even a muscle in her neck did twitch
as she sauntered straight into the heart of the alleyway.
She knew what she wanted.
She was lookin' for that stud bull, she was looking for that he cat.
And that was me.

Tommy the Cat is my name and I say unto thee...

Say baby do you wanna lay down with me
Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side
Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me
Say baby?...Say baby?
Il tuo voto:
I've seen them out at Soco
They're pounding sixteen penny nails
The truckers on the interstate
Have been known to ride the rails
The sweat is beating on the brow
Can't keep these fellas down
'Cause those damned blue-collared tweekers
Are runnin' this here town

I knew a man who hung drywall
He hung it mighty quick
A trip or two to the blue room
Would help him do the trick
His foreman would pat him on the back
Whenever he would come around
'Cause these dammed blue-collar tweekers
Are beloved in this here town



Now the union boys are there
To protect us from all the corporate type
While curious George's drug patrol
Is out here hunting snipe
Now they try to tell me different
But you know I ain't no clown
'Cause those damned blue-collar tweekers
Are the backbone of this town

Now the flame that burns twice as bright
Burns only half as long
My eyes are growing weary
As I finalize this song
So sit back and have a cup o' joe
And watch the wheels go round
'Cause those damned blue-collar tweekers
Have always run this town
Il tuo voto:
"You bastards!"

Here they come... (repeat)

"Shut up, you bastards!"
"You just called me a bastard, didn't you?"
