Git Down To It

You know why you’re here
And what you are here for
You knew well and good
As soon as you walked through the door

The sun went down
And you got uppity
Word got passed around
It’s time to get up and Par—Tee

Git Down to it
There’s really nothing to it
This is the time and place to use it
You hesitate and you could lose it , honey

Death Roll

I was making my way down the trail of life when I
stopped at a watering hole.
When what should I find but a salt-water crocodile
jumped up and put me in a death roll.

Death Roll. Death Roll.

This is the end of this violent song
cause of what you just have been told .
Cuz there ain’t nothin left when a salt-water crocodile
jumps up and puts you in a death roll.

Death Roll! Death Roll!

First come an aweful shaken. And I can hear my bones a
breaken. Then its down in the water off to the nest
for a feeding at leisure where he can finish the rest!

–Break–

Well I was born to die but I never thought that it
would happen quite this way. We all got it commin and
that’s fact cuz it’s just the waze weze made.

So watch your ass when you take a dip at the billibong
swimmin hole. You jsut gotta hope its not a salt-water
crocodile jumps up and puts you in a death roll.

Death Roll! Death Roll!

Beat-N-the System

The wheel was invented about a million BC
Ansd has been rolling right long throught out the history
IT took a cow with a plow to make a man’s food
It took a man with a plan to make the tool

There’s a beat in the system
A beat in the system for ya
You could be beat in(g) the system
Youy could be beat in(g) the system too

Well things were moving kind of slow or rather at a slow rate
Until the Rennaisance made everybdy want to be great
The things we have are not half of the things that will be what we will have with the help of our technologies

Gallileo rolled his balls down an inclined plane
And then he dropped them off a tower to see if they fell the same
But it was Newton who was shooting for the general Law
It was he who first saw the law that made them all fall

Johnny Jackson

Oh Johnny Jackson
Wish I could surf half as good as you and there’s a reason
The fact remains that it’s my fault and that’s a fact son
That if I’d practiced more perhaps I’d see some action
Oh Johnny Jackson

Oh Johnny Jackson
Here on the beach amongst the barbies of your kingdom
Try as I might all that they hear is that I sing dumb
I’d like to plumb for another crumb of stolen action
Oh Johnny Jackson

Break to Em

Oh Johnny Jackson
Wish I could surf half as good as you and there’s a reason
The fact remains that it’s my fault and that’s a fact son
That if I’d practiced more perhaps I’d see some action
Oh Johnny Jackson

Mousetrap

My CD player, I’m sure it sounds great
If I had CD then I would play it.
Productions up, quality down
What new musicians think they’ve found?

Hey mister it’s a better mouse trap
Speak with space technology
We keep on thinking were better & better

Automatic assault rifles
When some get happy, it’s quite an eye full
To good for deer, to good for hunting
Come on solders, let’s send them running

 

There’s Regains star wars, There’s Fleithmans fusion
Nuclear age, electric confusion
Was marawanna, then coke now crack
Young’s getting restless, lets keep them back

 

Super conductor, accelerator
Is it not strange truk hearty cde?
How can wilder, don’t even know her.
Glue nutrinos go out and get her

 

Aristology & technocrafts
Let’s techno prisoner general, we don’t?

Who thinks it up, who writes it down?
We take it in and try to look profound
We see some evil, we see some good
We’ll see forever if that we could

Deer Love

With my pedal to the metal, be still my pumping heart
You dash across the road, across my dash you come apart Deer Love

Some say it was by accident your tender eyes caught in my lights
Twas on my speeding bumper that tenderized you deer that night Deer Love

They thought you was a rural myth but I’m a gonna take you home
Them city folks’ll never know pleasures waitin by the side of the road
Deer Love you wait beside the road, you wait for me alone
So long as you stay warm for me I mean to give this dog a bone!
Deer Love

Your supple limbs grow stiff alas our short-lived love affairs grows cold
And so I throw your body –top my car and drive you home, Deer Love

Our rendezvous’s just memory, I pause to reminiscience
Thanks for stocking up my freezer, to dine with you’s sheer bliss—Deer Love

Right Smack in the middle of it

It puts you
Right Smack in the middle of it
Hits you where you live

Steppin’ Out

The children, the people- reaching out into the world
The science the language – reaching out into the world
The money the power – reaching out into the world
The birdies the flowers – reaching out into the world

Were reaching out – into the world
Were reaching out – into the world
Were reaching out – into the world

From prom night to twilight – stepping out into the world
From college to real life – stepping out into the world
From playing to acid – stepping out into the world
From placid to flaccid – stepping out into the world

Were stepping out – into the world (3X)

From Beatles to pistols – going out into the world
From mommy to needles – going out into the world
From diapers to army – going out into the world
From rifles to? – Going out into the world

Were going out – into the world (3X)

Were crying out
We’re freaking out!
We’re buggin out!

Ready to Spend

Battled on for decades the wars of the dead rage on
Taken killed in service, their lives just come and gone
Bloodshed stains the evening skies, their pain can’t be forgot
Survived by those who hated, took aim then took the shot

(Chorus)

Keep them off my old friend
Make this sad story end
You know all we do is pretend
Do you hold your life ready to spend

Do you know where you are or what you are here for
Do you wish for it to be over or do you want to live on for more
No use in working hard for you not many days have I to live
How many hoursdo I have to fight.
You say my freedom you can’t give

Chorus

I hope by now you understand how I live my life today
Never getting any rest from this theatre or the play
I see my life as make believe and its grief as just bad dreams
The characters my enemies, each day a tragic scene

Chorus

Sisyphus

Sisyphus , He had a job to get done
He was a Rock Roller

As he rolled up near the top he saw a sign that made him stop
And it read “Slippery when Wet’
He was rolling higher higher
…higher higher when Zeus , pulled the rain

What the Hell

Upon a time there was that but then well then maybe
You’ll see that one day that she had got the
notion that she was just and plainly
What he didn’t want but then
well then maybe?!

Upon a time there was that but then well then maybe
You’ll see that one day that he had got
notion that he was just and plainly
What she didn’t want but then
well then maybe?!
REFRAIN
At the time they felt guilty
Another flower of love wilting
But then again if something’s building
What the hell

At the time they felt guilty
Another flower of love wilting
But then again if something’s building
Well I guess it was meant to be.

Upon a time there was that but then well then maybe
You’ll see that one day that she had got the
notion that he was just and plainly
What he didn’t want but then
well then maybe?!

Upon a time there was that but then well then maybe
You’ll see that one day that he had got
notion that she was just and plainly
What he didn’t want but then
well then maybe?!

Ganga Man (Live)

Him plant a seed
And watch oit grow
When he smoke that weed
His problems go
They go down the hall
And out the door
Around the wall
Need say no more

Ganga
Give me that T
THC
Yeah yeah

I ask him why you smok
He said, “Why you don’t?”
I said, “maybe I don’t feel like it.”
He said, “well there you go.”

Different smokes
For different folks
But when your God Jah smokes
You hold this and I’ll roll

Refrain

He rolled it on up
And he smoked it on down
Left with a smile on his face
Without a trace of a frown

His eyes are read
And his feet are bare
His hair is dread
But his SINSE is there

REFRAIN

Hapless Lads (Live)

We sit we watch the passing fads
We fo through time and think that we are bad
Some try and wtire the songs that make us sad
Fuck that let’s drink cuz we’re the Hapless lads

Cuz we’re the Hapless lads
And we’re hapless
Cuz we’re the Hapless lads
And we’re hapless

It doesn’t matter if its rum or vodka
As long as you can drink up a lotsa
If you wake up and there’s a bottle around ya
You can be sure the Hapless Lads have found you!

REFRAIN

We came to college to act real smart
We said, “Hey, it ‘ll be great start.”
People think we’re gonna play the part
But we are losers with more liver than heart!

REFRAIN

L’il Country

My little sister is my daughter, she got funny squinting eyes.
She’s been husking corncobs, should of been back by nine.
Grandmas in the kitchen, fixing her possum pudding pie.
She knows I like my chicken – southern fried

Grandpas been running moonshine, hope the sheriff don’t find the still.
The last ones in the hog trough, I think his name was bill.
Cousin Eugene’s in the basement, he don’t see the light of day.
He’s a little disturbed you know, he don’t come out to play. No!

The sheep’s are in their booties, down by the riverside.
Little knee high’s been pleasing the hound dog and pappies going to tan his hide.
Uncle Jessie sits on the front porch, with his best friend in his hand.
Goober’s hit the big time way off in TV land

There’s a little country in everyone, there’s a little country in you!
