Salad bowls full of imbeciles
They take their toll
That’s why I need chemicals
Allied Chemical
Save your souls with them poison polls
It really rakes my coals
That’s why I need chemicals
Allied Chemical
We don’t know where to go
All we know is we need chemicals
Allied Chemical
Violins smaller than those tiny hands
I need oxygen
There’s the end round the bend
My little friend
I need oxygen
We don’t know who to overthrow
All we know is we need chemicals
Allied Chemical

Only Game In Town
03:44

Top up crank the windows down
The road to rubber makes a sound
Lazy rivers love to drown
Planes fall from the skies around
Wildfires are burning houses down
You’re the cancer and I’m the clown
And we’re the only game in town
Ooo la la la
Lazy rivers love to drown
Ooo la la la
Wildfires are burning houses down
Ooo la la la
Your frown is turning upside down
Top down crank the windows high
The rain can’t hit us if we fly
Eyes trained on the magic prize
Purty days and dirty lies
Let the others criticize
You’re the kid got kicked around
And you’re the only game in town
Ooo la la la
Lazy rivers love to drown
Ooo la la la
Wildfires are burning houses down
Ooo la la la
Your frown is turning upside
Ooo la la la
Ooo la la la
Ooo la la la
Top up crank the windows down
The road to ruin makes a sound
Lazy rivers love to drown
Planes fall from the skies around
Wildfires are burning houses down
You’re the cancer and I’m the clown
And we’re the only game in town
Ooo la la
We’re the only game in town
Ooo la la
We’re the only game in town
Ooo la la

Pony Show

I can beat ‘em all if I try
Race the race until you face the final finish line
Face the fact that pretty face is running out of time
Erase the lines with melamine and lemon turpentine
Case by case this ugly face wins every seventh time
Tell me something I don’t know
I’m the dog in your pony show
Master classes filled with asses bigger than the sun
Faster fastest blasting caps down Highway 41
Has to be the memory that keeps me having fun
Last is first and first is last that’s how I’m Number 1
Tell me something I don’t know
I’m the dog in your pony show
I can beat ‘em all if try
I’m the dog in your pony show
Pony show

Sun-Filled Living Rooms
03:31

Olive’s walking to school today then June is coming here
Make a cat with a piece of clay and dress up like a deer
And paint their nails red and green and black and blue
Shine like stars in sun-filled living rooms
Gavin woke up to work today then changed his mind instead
Sold his clubs and his Cabriolet and married his pal Fred
The reception smelled of wine and man perfume
Shine like stars in sun-filled living rooms
Shine like stars
Everybody keeps wondering just what the old man said
Catch a fish and you eat all day and pretty soon you’re dead
You gotta keep on smiling through the doom and gloom
And shine like stars in sun-filled living rooms
Shine like stars
Sun-filled living rooms

Well I was walkin’ down the street
Trying to meet some people to greet
A neighbor come around
Said look who I found
And she talked about the time of day
About her daughter who’s a runaway
I looked at her without a word to say
She said I didn’t like her anyway
And she said yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Then a butterfly said
Yeah yeah yeah
A canary said
Yeah yeah yeah
And the neighbor said
Then she talked about the other time
When she offered me a Bud Light Lime
I was already drinking red red wine
I wasn’t looking good but I was feeling fine
And Cheryl Ladd is un her underpants
And everybody does the happy dance
And Guildenstern is kissing Rozencrantz
And all the soccer balls are made in France
And she said yeah, yeah yeah yeah
The neighbor said
Yeah yeah yeah
Lady Mary said
Yeah yeah yeah
Mr. Carson said
Yeah yeah yeah
Then the drummer said
(Doink doink doink)
And the bass player said

And the German guy said
Da da da
Yeah yeah yeah

Battle

All that wasted time
Standing in your line
You’re worse than cattle
Spit the bit, turn and fight your battle
Battle
You're just wasting time
Phoning in your lines
You’re sold like chattle
Spit the bit, turn and fight your battle
Battle
All your wasted time
Casting in your line after mine
You lost your paddle
Spit the bit, learn to take hit, turn and fight your battle
Battle

Malibu Stacy

I know a place out behind the Fashion Bar
That’s where Stacy hides all alone
22nd street
Malibu Stacy hides behind 27 sheets
Malibu Stacy leans on the railing for relief
Malibu Stacy hides
There’s a reason I guess we tend to go way to far
Cashing lightning in a jar leaves you all alone
42nd street
Malibu Stacy hides behind 47 sheets
Malibu Stacy leans on the railing for relief
Malibu Stacy hides
Marilyn
Someone tell me why we tend to do these things
We demand passion trails supply and leaves us all alone
92nd street
Malibu Stacy hides behind 97 sheets
Malibu Stacy leans on the railing for relief
Malibu Stacy hides
From Marilyn
She hides from Marilyn

She Does What She Likes
03:43

She don’t like what she does, so she does what she likes
Mattresses don’t stuff themselves and stuffing pays alright
Pays the rent, pays the bills and every Friday night
She don’t like what she does, so she does what she likes
She does what she likes yeah
Prefers constant crisis
Ticks off all her vices
She does what she likes, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
She don’t like what she does, so she does what she likes
Friday nights start out alright until she picks a fight
Ends up going home with some dang fool who ain’t her type
She don’t like what she does, so she does what she likes
She does what she likes yeah
Prefers constant crisis
Ticks off all her vices
She does what she likes, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
She don’t like what she does, so she does what she likes
Sunday’s Sunday school and church and lunch with brother Mike
Mike says “You’re a mess,” she says “Mike go and get a life”
She don’t like what she does, so she does what she likes
She does what she likes yeah
Prefers constant crisis
Ticks off all her vices
She does what she likes, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Joey's Place
04:18
|
|||
Let me clear a spot for you
Come sit over here
Would you like another glass of beer
I haven’t seen your face before
But Joey says you’re nice
Tells me you been ‘round oh once or twice
This place gets awful crazy sometimes
It’s a tough one on the streets today
I can feel it in the air
Thought I’d come inside and fix my hair
The cops are out in force tonight
God you’re a sight to see
One of the few men left who’s really nice to me
This place gets awful crazy sometimes
Think I’ll have another glass of wine
She disappeared without a trace
Not even Joey saw her leave
And Joe’s seen everything
This place gets awful crazy sometimes
Think I’ll have another glass of wine

Hello, how are you?
Lips made for two
So goodbye, goodbye to you
Where have gone when you’re gone for a long long while?
Who do you see to make you smile?
Who is he waiting for you?
And where have you been when you’re away from home?
How many kisses where you roam
Do you lie through on the phone?
So hello, how are you?
Luanne, Luanne
And goodbye, goodbye to you
Luanne, Luanne
Take a run into the running water
A little white noise hey I’m Satan’s daughter
Fishes don’t feel so let’s not fight them
Chicken’s don’t kill so let’s not bite them
River running through a burning manhole
I need a cork the size of Maine to plug my dying insides
My dying insides
I’m dying inside
Luanne
Where have gone when you’re gone for a long long while?
Who do you see to make you smile?
Who is he waiting for you?
And where have you been when you’re away from home?
How many kisses where you roam
Do you lie through on the phone?

Sword Soup
04:34

You put the inner tube on
I’ll tuck the tire to sleep at night
I’ll keep the kitchen light on
You take a stab at sunlight
One more night
One more dream to drawl on
One more day
And one more sword to fall on
The radiators’ all on
The radio’s on FMU
Reactor’s boiling over
Indian Point can’t push the power through
The windows’ icing over
The doors are closing and the ceiling is closer too
Remember when the day was bright,
The dark was night, and the house new
One more night
One more no more tomorrow
One more day
One more tough loss to swallow
One more kid
Let’s name her Jean or Harlow
One more night
And one more sword to swallow
Sword to swallow
Sword soup
Hate to beg, but I need to borrow
Hear today, going deaf tomorrow
Paperweights and time wait for no one
Dinner dates, they’re so 1990
One more night
One more friend to fall on
One more feint
One more fake involvement
One more lie
One more new soldier calling
One more dead
One more old timer falling
One more night
I’ll keep the kitchen light on
One more dance
The inner tube is tied on
One more lie
One more no more tomorrow
One more chance
And one more sword to swallow
