Went to a party, I danced all night
I drank 16 beers and I started up a fight But now I'm jaded, you're out of luck I'm rolling down the stairs, too drunk to fuck I'm too drunk to fuck I'm too drunk to fuck Too drunk to fuck I'm too drunk, too drunk, too drunk to fuck I like your stories, I love your gun Shooting out cop tires sounds like loads and loads of fun But in my room, wish you were dead You bawl like the baby in Eraserhead I'm too drunk to fuck I'm too drunk to fuck Too drunk to fuck It's all I need right now, too drunk to fuck I'm too drunk to fuck I'm too drunk to fuck Too drunk to fuck I'm sick, soft, gooey and cold, too drunk to fuck I'm about to drop, my head's a mess My only salvation is I'll never see you again You give me head, it makes it worse Take out your fucking retainer, put it in your purse I'm too drunk to fuck You're too drunk to fuck Too drunk to fuck It's all I need right now, oh baby I'm melting like an ice cream bar, oh baby And now I got diarrhea Too drunk to fuck |

You're from out of town
I can tell that by your shoes Flew in for the convention Getting tipsy in a bar You're leaving pretty late Gotta get up in the morning Thinking she's just too expensive And you know you're probably right There's no one on the streets And you can't find your hotel You walk a little faster Someone's following you The wallet-size bulge In your double-knit butt Has money for me And maybe credit cards You dart around the next corner You can't look around Quick now, fish for the keys for the door You don't even know where you are You walk a little faster I walk a little faster Sensing that I sense you Now there's no escape I can almost taste your dandruff As I reach for your face And I strike |

I am no one but I'm well known
For I am the man with the dogs I stare at you shopping, watch while you're walking The dogs run around your toes You turn around, two eyes break you down Now who does that guy think he's staring at? Stop in your tracks, you're being laughed at Your armored ego is nude And I do and I do Crack up 'cause I'm getting to you I see you, I see you And you're pretty self-conscious too Down to your church, I'm looking for victims Spell of the man with the dogs I'll haunt you and follow you to work That ghost is back again Creep into you, I won't go away You're taking yourself too seriously I smile as you frown and turn to walk away Your habits for all to see I see a shrew, I see you And the rodent things you do You see you, I see you And you're pretty self-conscious too And I'm gonna crack your mask Yeah, and I'm gonna laugh Open wide Saw you again, you'll see me tomorrow Curse of the man with the dogs You may not like me, you won't forget me Not safe even in Walgreen's They've seen me, ask your friends, oh, I know him Seen but I'm never heard by your lot A stare is worth a thousand biting phrases See how stupid you are? I dare you, I dare you To erase my laser tattoo You see you, you see you And you're pretty self-conscious too And I'm gonna crack your mask Yeah, and I'm gonna laugh What's inside? Is it pubic hair? Is it cobweb air? I'll bet you just don't care |

There's a prefab building and a funny smell
Around the hills outside of town Every now and then we wonder But we shrug our shoulders and get back to work There's a railroad there and trains go by And there's people locked in cattle cars And have you noticed the french fries at the A&W Taste a little strange? I drive down to the disco Pompadour and pink lamme I bow and blow the doorman He parts the chain, says "Join the game" A quick line in the girls room To the bar for the electrodes A coin into the right slit Tape my temple, watch me go Blacks are banned, except on the records Oh, life's a cabaret Like in Berlin, 1930 All I crave is my escape Now I want your perfect Barbie-doll lips And I want your perfect Barbie-doll eyes Run my fingers down your Barbie-doll dress Up and down your spandex ass If I lit a match for you You'd melt before my eyes Come here, my pretty glow worm You look so fine so dance with me The fly-eye lights are throbbing I'm burning up the floor Whirling, twirling Close my eyes, no faces judging me But I want your perfect Barbie-doll lips And I want your perfect Barbie-doll eyes Slip my fingers down your Barbie-doll dress Up and down your spandex ass A Hitler youth in jogging suit Smiling face band 'round his arm Says "Line up, you've got work to do We need dog food for the poor" A scream bleats out, we're herded into lines Customized vans wait outside I'm getting scared of my new home To Auschwitz condominiums we go Now I want your perfect Barbie-doll lips And I want your perfect Barbie-doll eyes Let my fingers down your dress One more time |

Is my cock big enough, is my brain small enough For you to make me a star? Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far And when I'm rich and meet Bob Hope We'll shoot some golf and shoot some dope Is my cock big enough, is my brain small enough For you to make me a star?

Ray's guitar broke. No, we won't play Rawhide, won't play anything. We'll play the theme from the Dinah Shore show. Who wants to be Dinah Shore? Who's alter-ego is Dinah Shore? Oh, his fists didn't go up so quickly this time. Yawn...yawn..yawn. Put those headphones on, it's be-bop time.
I want to tell you a story about the last time I was in Portland. The night before we played at the Long Goodbye. I was walking on the street about 10:30 at night. A lot of people go to bed around here at 10:30 at night. And well, I was walking along when suddenly these jocks in this bright blue pickup drove up. It had KC lights, tractor tires, everything but the CB. It was a life-size Hot Wheels car for some dumb rich kid, right. Well, they drove up to me and they yelled what dumb rich kids usually yell, "Hey, faggot," and showered me with some water. So, I stood there thinking, what a bunch of fuckheads and picked up a rock. Now, I waited, walked down about a block to where the Kentucky Fried Chicken is, on Burnside, and sure enough they drove around again. They said, "Hey, faggot, where's the nearest McDonald's?" I said, "I don't know" and they squirted me again. So I threw the rock and put a nice-size dent in their giant Hot Wheels car. They screached to a halt in the parking lot of some department store, who's name I don't remember, it's up the street from Fred Meyer, and they got out their clubs and they ran after me, yelling, "We're gonna kill you, you god damn faggot, we're gonna kill you, you motherfucker." So I got in a phonebooth by the Kentucky Fried Chicken on Burnside, held my legs straight out like this so they couldn't open the door to the phonebooth. So they began charging the phonebooth, beating on it with their club, yelling, "We're gonna kill you, you motherfucker, we're gonna kill you, you god damn faggot." I just looked at them. So, there was a crowd gathering by this time and these kids were standing nearby and they said, "Oh, look at him, he's insane." I thought, ah-hah, here's my way out. I yelled at them, "Take me to a mental hospital right away. I wanna be be put away. Please put me away, c'mon, call the cops and put me away. Please put me away now." They said, "Alright, faggot, we're calling the police." So they called the police. The cop comes out and I go, ah, my savior, I'm away from these jocks. He opens up the door, "Get out of there, you," throws me up against the car, frisks me, shoves me in the back. Then he goes over to the jocks, "Now what happened here? It looks like we're going have to take him to jail but we got to have the full story first" So the jocks, who had an ace in the hole, ace in the hole [Take down on the bass, a little bit down on the bass. Yeah], ace in the hole, and they go, "Well, goddammit, the motherfucker put a dent in my truck, a $5000 truck, right, so I got my club, I went out and I wanted to kill him. I want to kill him. Let me kill him, goddammit. Let me kill him." So the cop made them go home, and he drove me home, and he confiscated their club and my rock as further evidence. And I thought, so this is Oregon, huh? Tolerent Oregon? Ray, are you done with your guitar yet? He isn't done yet. So what else do you want to hear, I'm out of stories. That's a true story, too. Just ask Bruce Loose. |

You you, you, you, you, you Are you really you? No! You're a chained-up dog fenced in a yard Don't see much, you can't go far Pace and froth, you're getting sick Run too fast and it'll snap your neck You say you'll break out But you never do You're just another ant in the hill It's your life sentence Life sentence Life sentence Life sentence Life sentence Life sentence Life sentence |
