Nothing is crueler than children who come from good homes
|
God will forgive them, I guess, but whose side are you on?
|
Driving around the old town, I remember it all
|
Dropping my lunchbox and Tampax all over the hall
|
And they said...
|
|
"You are a socialist cokehead, we know from your clothes.
|
"You are a satanist worshiper of things evil!
|
"You think you're poet, a folksinger? Poser, nuh-oh!
|
A volleyball player? You've got to be kidding us all!"
|
|
So we hide from the cunts
|
On a night reconnaissance
|
Steal flamingos and gnomes
|
From the dark side of the lawn
|
|
No one can stop us
|
The script is a work of genius
|
No one has bought the rights yet but
|
We're not giving up
|
Every unwanted lawn jockey fits in the script
|
Directed by Spielberg and starring the masochist club
|
|
Mary, you look like hell
|
You're stuck in that ridiculous shell
|
Give us some light and God's pure love
|
We know what you've been dreaming of
|
Give us some light and God's pure love
|
We know what you've been dreaming of
|
Give us some light and God's pure love
|
We're taking you to Hollywood
|
|
[spoken]
|
Ah!
|
Hollywood
|
[end spoken]
|
|
And we hide from the cunts
|
On a night reconnaissance
|
Steal flamingos and gnomes
|
From the dark side of the lawn
|
|
One plays a socialist cokehead we dress in my clothes
|
One plays a satanist worshiper of things evil
|
One plays a poet who starts up a band of his own
|
One is a volleyball player with both her wrists...broke!
|
|
And we hide from the cunts
|
On a night reconnaissance
|
Steal flamingos and gnomes
|
From the dark side of the lawn
|
|
And we give them good homes
|
Give them love they've never known
|
In the loft, in the barn,
|
In the town where I was born
|
In the loft, in the barn,
|
In the town where I was born
|
In the loft, in the barn,
|
In the town where I was born
|
|
