GREEN
CORN
Sometimes I
think of all the places where I
don't
wanna go
Then I think of all the things
that I don't wanna do
And when I think of all the
people that I don't wannas
meet
I close my eyes and go to
sleep
Tully, baby,
you're trapped behind your golden
bars
I'm the prince of poverty hangin'
out in bars
Your life's a Mercedes, a mansion
with a pool
My life's on a bus stop just
waiting for some fuel
Your
obviousness disgusts me I see
thru your macho
lies
I'll fight everything you stand
for
There's something in your purse
baby, my head is
getting sore
Maybe what we had was just green
corn

THE
MORON BROTHERS
Talking about
the Moron Bros', tattooed
fingers
Tattooed toes
They're idiots, losers, they're
scum
Taking advantage of everyone
You're a dog, they're your
fleas
Doing everything they can to
spread disease
They'll take
your beer, they'll take your
drugs
Leave with you microscopic
bugs
Their company is something you
won't miss
Then your icetrays are filled
with piss
They are the Moron Brothers
Don't get along with
others
They'll whine,
they'll bitch, they'll fuck you
if you're rich
They'll leach, they'll latch,
they are the itch you can't
scratch
Do do do do do do do do da do
do...
They'll ink
your face, tape your eyelids
closed
Tabasco's in your mouth
there's mustard up your nose
when your head is shaved you'll
think the worst has
passed
Just try to move your leg
They've put you in a cast
They are the Moron Brothers
Don't get along with
others
They may not
go down in history
But they'll go down on your
sister

SHOWER
DAYS
In the morning
I awake
I feel my bladder about to
break
I scratch my balls I rub my
eyes
Just feeling lousy
My girlfriend
tells me that
It's time to take a bath
I say, "No, not today, it's only
Tuesday"
Once every 24
hours
I'm supposed to take a shower
That's not the way I do it
Do it do it
Personal
hygiene is the last thing on my
mind
I don't want to do it
Do it do it
It doesn't
make a difference to me
Everyday I do the same old
thing
So why should I have to be
clean?
Those dreaded
Wednesdays and Saturdays
Also known as shower days
I hate them

FOOD,
SEX AND EWE
I'd rather
have a bottle in front of me
I'd rather watch 10 hours of
T.V
But since I can't I'll think of
food
I'll think of sex
I'll think of music
And I'll think of you
I'd rather
have a cold one by the sea
I'd rather have you sitting on
top o'me
But since I'm here and you're so
far away
I'll read about Zaphod
Beeblebrox
As I pass the day, hey
I'd rather not
spend my whole night driving
I'd rather not be on so much
caffeine
But since you're in bed and I'm
sleeping
on some floor
I'll think of you and I'll wish
that I was home

JUST
THE FLU
Looking back
to the past
predictions of the end
Unseen ultra violet rays
are beating on my head
Nuclear threat wanna bet will be
our demise
The day will come when we'll look
to apocalyptic skies
when the news
had spread, that soon we'd all
be
dead
well it just blew our minds
No one could have guessed that
our worst fears at
best
Figments of our time
So it seems
that our dreams will never come
to be
How could such a stupid thing
destroy humanity?
A few weeks till extinction and
there's nothing we can do
A message sent to other worlds
will say, "It was just the
flu"
There's no
lesson to be learned
There's no one left to learn
it

EL
LAY
Get out of my
way
can't you see I'm from L.A.?
Yeah, I met Slash, I've got a
rose tattoo
I bet I know way more people than
you
I just love
this town
my girlfriend weights 84
pounds
Met her at the Cathouse where I
get in for free
She pays the rent while I watch
T.V.
when we go out
tonight
gotta get my hair just right
Tight black pants and blue suede
shoes
I'll get my picture in Rock City
News
Gotta get
those flyers out
might meet a talent scout
And he will talk contracts with
me
My fame and fortune and
MTV

NEW
BOOBS
Something is
lacking, I'm not attracting
My boobs are not as big as I want
them to be
I want 36D
I'm not
receiving enuff affection
Gonna get me a silicon
injection
And fulfill my dreams, bust
through my seams
My social life
is pathetic, I can't find a
man
when I need is cosmetic
surgery
Be the best I can be
Proteins, and
milkshakes, mass vitamin
consumption
who needs to diet when
liposuction
is painless and quick, local
anesthetic
Now my body is
a model, a flawless
perfection
I most certainly will cause an
erection
wherever I go, but I still don't
know
The reason why
I can't find a mate
Guys I meet ejaculate
Then leave through the door
I can't take anymore

CHEESE
It's been a
long time
Now it's time to get your bubble
burst
Things are bad enough in this
world
why do you have to make them
worse?
Day after day, you just gotta get
it

WHERE'S
MY SLICE?
So sick and
tired of your bitching and
complaining
So long you've been oppressed
while others lives are
gaining
want reparations, you're needy
and deserving
Can't understand why some are
served while you're
doing the serving
Anything but
responsibility
where's my
slice?
I want more than equal rights
I want everything for
free!
You waste your
time concerned with what others
are
earning
You want a revolution to start
the tables turning
A demonstration to make a better
nation
we'll spend the day protesting
all the problems that
we're facing
Anything but face reality
where's my slice...
Your brilliant
theory
how the world owes you a
living
You'll take away from others
The things they should be
giving
They own the pie and you want
your share
whoever told you life was
fair?
You were dealt your hand - now
play it
where's my
slice...

TOGETHER
ON THE SAND
Together on
the sand
we walked hand in hand
On the beachfront, she smiled at
me
As she tightly held my hand
I had my finger up her..
Country music played on the
radio
So I turned it off and we walked
down
To the water, as she grabbed on
to my honker
A wave swept us away

NOWHERE
You can't
believe the things you see and
read
The Soviet threat
Our pseudo enemy
what's scaring me?
Our foreign policy
To make the world safe for
business
Call it democracy
Our human
nature, it's all the same
we spend our lives in the pursuit
of happiness
So stop the hate, open the iron
gate
It's our destiny to make the cold
war history
You think I
give a shit
If you're a socialist
If you're a capitalist
we've all got to exist
On this planet with nowhere to
run
The millions of brainwashed must
open their eyes
we are one
with us over
here and them over there
Barbed wire borders are going
nowhere

BRAIN
CONSTIPATION
Somebody hear
me, somebody listen to me
Am I alone in this world
Is there anyone listening?
Appease me, can't find a reason
to be
Alienation, is taking over
me
I'm going
away, can't go on any longer
I really don't know why I just
gotta die
I never thought this was how it
would end
The body
swinging
I see it over and over again
Vanian singing, can I ever listen
to it again?
A cry for attention was a cry
never heard
with no one
listening
There was nothing to be heard
Nothing to be heard

GONOHERPASYPHLILAIDS
Sitting in a
room waiting for some news
Sitting in a room with white
knuckles
Not feeling so good
I didn't do the things I
should
I said, "Doc,
tell me what's wrong with me"
He had this expression he didn't
know what to say
"It seems that you've contracted
a new strain."
How could this
happen to me?
Another victim another
casualty
From fucking casually, another
casualty
All the times
I should have worn a jimmy
hat
All the times I said, "What the
fuck
I won't look back, that's not for
me."
I wouldn't listen to reason
Now look at me

I
DON'T WANT YOU AROUND
Jenny, so many
times I tried to get away
But you kept following me all
over town
I'll display it, there's no way
to say it
I don't just want you
I just don't want you around
I don't want you around
you follow me around
It's really bringing me down
I don't want you
around
when it was
time to go I had nothing to
say
Don't you look at me
don't you look at me that way
"I love you!" Oh, really? Please
go away
what gave you
the idea?
Get it out of your head
You follow us around
we're not the Grateful Dead
I wanted to be friends but you
wanted more
So, like I told you before
I don't want you
around

THE
MALACHI CRUNCH
Did you get
that rush, that feeling,
adrenalin
pumping through your veins?
A lifeless body in the gutter,
city streets are stained
How do you rationalize, what do
you see
in your reflection?
A kid just having fun, A soldiers
bloodied
boot impression
One for all and all for one,
especially when
it's ten on one
You don't care what you're doing,
you know
it sure is fun
If it happened
to your mother would
you laugh so hard?
well, that was someone's son or
brother
That you kicked so
hard
This time you
went too far
what's the matter, don't you feel
alright?
Do you feel remorse?
Or are the handcuffs on a little
too tight?
Now that your
friends are gone, you've got
no
defense, no protection
5 or 6 times a day you receive
your hot beef injection
I hope every time you're
cornholed
terror fills your mind
The one emotion you have inspired
one too many
Times
