Beat it boy go on an run – we got no time for one young
We want three years’ experience – masters or equivalent
Beat it boy we got no work
Try downtown try dishes – why’d you major in costly wishes
Typewriters and ancient authors – don’t feed your crying daughter
Beat it boy we got no work
Keys and pens I can push – I won’t ever touch the kush
State federal public servant – whatever will pay rent
Beat it boy we got no work
Upload your resume – don’t waste our time today
Don’t bother with a line – we’ll email you in a week’s time
Beat it boy we got no work

Why Won't You Dance
02:46

Why won’t you dance?
Under this crescent
Why won’t you dance?
Lindy to my left
Scuff my Wingtip
You moan I don’t do dancing
Well I learned yesterday
No really I can’t
What did you say
Take my hand take my hand
Why won’t you dance?
Just one quick turn
Why won’t you dance?
You’ll soon learn
Don’t go and spurn
Your eyes say take me
My hands outstretched
No really I can’t
What did you say
Take my hand take my hand

Cause Tonight
03:37
|
|||
Cast your jaded dagger
Picture prancing Jagger
Light that incense burner
Cause tonight our bodies are leaving our brains
Cause tonight our feet won’t stop dancing
Unread philosophy
Turn off that black screen
Don't bother texting
Cause tonight our bodies are leaving our brains
Cause tonight our feet won’t stop dancing
We’ll be bathed in amber
Heavy as lead
When morning
Sees us tread
Cause tonight our bodies are leaving our brains
Cause tonight our feet won’t stop dancing

Bar Guy
02:26
|
|||
Hey you at the bar – think you’re getting far
That’s my lady – your taking
In your head - where’s your cred
Bye bye bar guy – bye bye bar guy
Worse than a buzzin fly
You’ve no backbone – ‘nother buzzed drone
One more crash – an you'll be ash
Parts everywhere – get on out of here
Bye bye bar guy – bye bye bar guy
Worse than a buzzin fly
Bye bye bar guy
Worse than a buzzin fly
Bye bye bar guy
Worse than a buzzin fly

Crazy Fry
Rotten Apple
Crazy Fry
Of my eye
Little Worm
Make a hole
Little Worm
It’s your turn
Deeper wiggle
Worm a way
Deeper wiggle
To the middle
Little worm
Your hole
Little worm
Left a burn
Crazy fry
Time to cry

F-A-N-T-A-S-Y
03:48
|
|||
In my dreams - there’s another
An unattainable - other
I can’t deny - these truths
Self-evident - to me
Those curves - may shake
Rattle an inner - ache
Whose to say - anything
Will ever- happen
It’s a fairy tale
What eyes can’t spell
F-A-N-T-A-S-Y
We’re all a little weird
It’d help to know you’re here
For I’m soon gonna be
Out to sea
And I rather you not
Want to kill me
It’s a fairy tale
What eyes can’t spell
F-A-N-T-A-S-Y

Everybody Knows
03:39
|
|||
Everyone’s a sinner
Everyone’s a wank
Go ahead an grab a saint
Everybody knows – Everybody knows
Lie about money
Lie about law
Lie about not believing in god
Everyone knows – Everyone knows
If they don’t – tell them so
If they don’t – tell them so you got it?
Deny a common truth
Deny a charity
Whose mouth do they really feed?
Everybody knows – Everybody knows
Keep it hid
Keep it pent
You reek of scandal scent
Everybody knows – Everybody knows
If they don’t – tell them so
If they don’t – tell them so you got it?

Mr. Rich
03:12
|
|||
Mr. Rich gets his money in a ditch
From the scaly witch
Now he’s got a bad itch
Watch yourself, Mr. Rich
Mr. Rich gets his hired help
By the rustin skelp
Then strangles them in the kelp
Watch yourself Mr. Rich
Mr. Rich tick tick
You’re not that slick
The witch saw your trick
Watch yourself Mr. Rich
Back at the river ditch
Mr. Rich looks for his witch
She strikes with her switch
Watch yourself die, Mr. Rich

When the Fire Rolls
02:39
|
|||
When the fire rolls – when the fire rolls- when the fire rolls
I’m big sur – he’s my guru – a dharma bum – to judge my fun
When the fire rolls – when the fire rolls – When the fire rolls
Hey jelly roll – waitress scold – slap my pinkie – try and stop me
When the fire rolls – when the fire rolls – when the fire rolls
Tristessa sick – Can’t smoke a bit – I do confess – to want your flesh
When the fire rolls – when the fire rolls – when the fire rolls
I got 242 – Mexico city Blues-From my solitudes – Man I’m hungry – like a new parolee – With this fire rolling
Hold up jack – Cassidy’s back – let’s not wait – on this waitress mate
When the fire rolls – when the fire rolls – when the fire rolls

Best Everyday
05:32
|
|||
Check your receipt – check your bell - everyone’s fell - from grace without face
Hustle your mind – hustle your dollar – don’t you holler - there selfish with no interest
In this world I say
Try and be my best everyday
Try and be my best everyday
In the morning wake up and say
Time to be your best today
Cul-de-sac pharmacists – quiet segregators – paid off orators – seducing, producing
Greed’s in the way – greed’s in belief – of every chief- and the body in with the lobby
In this world I say
Try and be my best everyday
Try and be my best everyday
In the morning wake up and say
Time to be your best today
Must we burn, round up - every weed, every crop - won’t it ever stop?
The only thing left to say
Try and be my best everyday
Try and be my best everyday
In the morning wake up and say
Time to be your best today
