Michigan Militia
I like to keep it in the refrigerator.
Keeps the powder dry, and the action quicker.
Let me be your American Gladitor.
Find enclosed an adhesive N.R.A. sticker.
A letter t' you from where I been holed up
in this bucolic, agrarian compound.
One step ahead
just ahead
of the government bloodhound.
The gas is off, it's a national showdown.
BUT...
Sure wish that I could visit you,
my sweet betrothed.
In a couple a' days
we'll all be free,
or we'll be dead.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
I'm fencing off this little piece of heaven.
Cross the line and you're electrocuted.
Polishing up my AK47.
It's a constitutional right, can't be refuted.
Now they got us on TV,
and makin' us look stupid.
Shot of me flippin' my lid,
at that mutt reporter,
a classic case of race dilution
Houston,
What is the problem?
I'm fighting for you, and a blue-eyed Jesus.
America first,
the rest get the pieces.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
Fighting for your honour,
like would any Afrikaner.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
Our numbers are strong, and it won't be long
'til I can tell you, Trisha, that we won.
You'll be ecstatic, just like that night
you told me up in the attic.
That was your wish again,
to be back in a purified Michigan
down on...! down on...!
...the farm?
Well, that's my wish again,
to be back in Michigan.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
(Well, that's my wish again, to be back in Michigan)
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
I hope y'like the double barrel,
I think it goes with your apparel.
Happy Birthday, Trisha,
(Well, that's my wish again, to be back in Michigan)
I'm in the Michigan Militia.
I like to keep it in the refrigerator.
Get in the Car
I'm alright...
Look what I'm drivin'.
Look at the curves
and my overhand serve,
it's more than survivin'.
Get in the car.
Get in the car.
Don't give me that,
you know who you are.
The answer is here,
it isn't that far (isn't that far).
Get in the car.
I'm in love...
Look what I'm drivin'.
A break-in alarm,
and you on my arm,
totally thrivin'
Twist and turn...
Look at her dancin'.
We're havin' some fun,
she's a trophy I won.
Baby's enhancing.
Get in the car.
Get in the car.
Don't give me that,
you know who you are.
The answer is here,
isn't that far (isn't that far).
Get in the car.
You fill me...
with big emotion.
We'll jump in the back,
turn up the 8-track,
I got Billy Ocean.
Get in the car.
Get in the car.
Don't give me that,
you know who you are.
The answer is here,
isn't that far (isn't that far).
Get in the car!
Get in the car!
Get in the car!
Get in the car!
I've Gotta Get a Message to You
Well, the preacher turned to me
and he smiled.
He said, "Come and walk with me,
come and walk one more mile."
Now, for once in your life, you're alone,
and you ain't got a dime.
There's no time for the phone.
I told him I'm in no hurry,
and if I broke her heart,
then please tell her I'm sorry.
Now for once in my life I'm alone,
but I've gotta let her know,
one more time before I go.
I've just gotta get a message to you.
Hold on. Hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.
Hold On. Hold on.
Swing it.
I've just gotta get a message to you.
Hold on. Hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.
Hold On. Hold on.
Well, I laughed, but that didn't hurt,
and it's only her love
that keeps me wearing this smirk.
Now I'm crying, but deep down inside,
I did it to him, now it's my turn to die.
I've just gotta get a message to you.
Hold on. Hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.
Hold On. Hold on.
I've just gotta get a message to you.
Hold on. Hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.
Hold On. Hold on.
I've just gotta get a message to you.
Hold on. Hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.
Hold On. Hold on.

Sahara
Do you recall those days of Sahara?
Shade was our ecstasy.
Pride was strong, friends true
as the day was long,
night winds blew cool and free.
Our finest hours lived in the Sahara
many centuries ago.
Was it just last year?
Now there's no more good whiskey here.
Not a trace of hidey-ho.
I was never alone at the Sahara.
How they'd gather to hear me speak,
they said my eyes held fire,
but a gold empire burned to the ground,
the world unwound, and left me here a freak.
Bring back those days
of that blessed Sahara.
Oh, the sin, the sabotage.
We had no fears,
the band played for a thousand years,
or was it just a mirage?
or was it just a mirage?
Lee
Only just we two
blood in my veins
the shadow of you
Perfect as frost
on the flowers
How a contrary calls
day always breaks
night always falls
Rotten fruit and bending trees
rocketships and our disease
So come with me up to the balcony
and we'll fall like paper planes
In the morning the paper will say
"Lovers fly away"
Even alone I'm your fool
I can't keep my word
the edge of the pool
Red rushing sound
in my ears
as the candles burn down
one lights the way
one disappears
Tiny portraits smashed on the floor
I can't kneel at your bed anymore
So, come with me up to the balcony
and we'll fall like paper planes
In the morning the paper will say
"Lovers fly away"
Lovers Fly Away
No No Raja
I wanna taste it,
give me a little taste.
I wanna taste it again.
Oh, no, no Raja,
don't you go back to her.
No, no Raja, don't you.
I wanna smell it,
just a little smell.
I wanna smell it again.
Oh, no, no Raja,
don't you go back to her.
No, no Raja, don't you.
And it's so hard,
khaili mushkileh,
it's standing so hard again.
Oh, no, no Raja,
don't you go back to her.
No, no Raja,
don't you.
I want it stupid,
just a little feel.
I wanna feel it again.
Oh, no, no Raja,
don't you go back to her.
No, no Raja, don't you.
For Raja, quiescence was wrong from the start.
Now Raja bleeds out his broken heart.
I want it stupid.
Just a little feel.
I wanna feel it again.
Oh, no, no Raja,
don't you go back to her.
No, no Raja, don't you.
No, no Raja,
don't you go back to her.
No, no Raja, don't you.

Some herbal tea

The little fear

gets bigger every day.
It takes work,
but it can be done,
to look 23 at 51.

Your New Boyfriend
Well, it was me, you, and Jacko
and your new buddy Tacco
No cause for alarm,
about the flag on his arm.
You said the politics matter,
but we're all getting fatter.
You'll take what you get,
with this Republican vet.
Well, have you really changed
that much since school?
when any Nazi couldn't swim in your pool?
Your new boyfriend's a bit
of a right wing shit.
We gave the finger to Sony,
and threw macaroni.
When we first kissed,
and Mulroney was pissed.
You said that you would never end up,
with a Goldwater send-up
Well that's what you said,
when we were both in debt.
Well, have you really changed
that much since school?
when any Nazi couldn't swim in your pool?
Your new boyfriend's a bit
of a right wing shit.
Well, have you really changed
that much since school?
when any Nazi couldn't swim in your pool?
You've just got to admit
he's a right wing shit!
he's a right wing shit!
he's a right wing shit!
he's a right wing shit!
Kick in the Ass
Kick in the ass.
Kick in the ass.
Kick in the ass, it's coming.
Kick in the ass, it's coming.
(repeats)
That guy who's stealing my parking space
He gets a
kick in the ass.
A great big
kick in the ass.
That baggage handler playing with my suitcase
He'll get a
kick in the ass.
It's comin',
kick in the ass.
People telemarketing,
calling during supper.
They should come visit and
show me their face.
And get a
kick in the ass.
A great big
kick in the ass.
A kick in the ass.
It's coming.
Kick in the ass.
Someone's complaining that they
got no hors d'oeuvres.
They'll get a
kick in the ass.
A great big
kick in the ass.
That guy!
That guy who wrote that book
about the bell curve.
My hardest
kick in the ass.
It's comin'
kick in the ass.
Jugs of milk left in the fridge,
with only drops remaining.
I'll find who did it,
they'll get what they deserve.
(get what they deserve)
A great big
kick in the ass.
That's right, a
kick in the ass.
I dole out justice with the
tip of my boot.
I'll kick ya!
kick in the ass.
It's comin'
kick in the ass.
It's got a logic
that you just can't refute.
You just can't refute good
Commander
kick in the ass.
The king of
kick in the ass.
A trail of aching derrières
next time they'll be more thoughtful.
They'll hunt me down and
stop my fun at the root.
I'll get a
Kick in the ass.
Full circle
Kick in the ass.
Humungous
Kick in the ass.
Gigantic
Kick in the ass.
Boo Time
I hear a hoot owl...
I hear a hoot owl...(coo)
I hear a hoot owl, Lord Baden-Powell, Adam West putting on the
Batman cowl and everybody knows what time it is, time it is...time it is...
It's Boo Time
It's Boo Time
When every wanker's wound up tight,
frigid, fractious, and forthright,
the plebes plugged up with plebiscite,
Trim the trad, go troglodyte
It's Boo Time
Boo Time
It's Boo Time
When obligations grow obtuse,
New neckties nab you like a noose,
The clown, the cleric, the recluse
All crank the sluice on their caboose.
Something that you bury,
way down the estuary,
Sharp and incendiary,
locked in a box of lead I said.
Chippewa Chippewa
Anchor Bar
Doin twist and grot
Promo the robot
Give the man the slip on the Elwood Strip
(note: the road is actually 'Elmwood')
Give the man the slip on the Elwood Strip
Give the man the slip on the Elwood Strip
Give the man the slip on the Elwood Strip - OW!
Something that you buried,
way down the estuary,
Sharp and incendiary,
locked in a box of lead I said.
Well, it's not forbidden to be what you are.
Dip into that great big cookie jar.
where it's always Boo Time
Boo Time
It's Boo Time
Boo Time
I said it's Boo Time
Boo Time
It's boo, it's boo, it's boo!
Love Set Fire
Small paper cranes
and wallpaper stains
that the pictures can hardly conceal
Love letters bent
from tears that were spent
on a cruel and a shabby ideal
But love set fire
to everything
and the flames looked like
angel's wings.
We played our parts
with paper hearts
and love set fire
to everything.
I know that it's wrong
to stay here this long
haunted by all of her things
I found out too late
only fools feel safe
in a house made of jokers and kings
But love set fire
to everything
and the flames looked like
angel's wings.
We played our parts
with paper hearts
and love set fire
to everything.
I've tried to escape her
and these bits of paper
but the memories I just can't outrun
So I'll keep lighting matches
and when one of them catches
this thing will finally
be done
Love set fire
to everything
and the flames looked like
angel's wings.
We played our parts
with paper hearts
and love set fire
to everything.
You Will Go To The Moon
Orbiting Rondelle
You will go to the moon
You'll probably be heading there soon
Someday flowers will grow there
But first you've got to go there
You will go to the moon
You will live 'mongst the stars
Your backyard will probably be Mars
You will ride off on your scooter
And eat off your computer
Oh you will live in the stars
Your stellar smile will always be
Knowing your home and home to stay
And you'll look down upon the earth
And say, "I can't believe we ever lived that way!"
You will go to the moon
There's plans for a hotel and lagoon
You'll be savoring the star fruit
And kicking off your moonboots
Oh you will go to the moon.
You will go to the moon
A paradise to rival Cancun
For once it's always sunny
You'll be raking in the money
Oh you get paid on the moon
It's been our most abiding dream
And a dream is an easy sell
And when the tourists come in droves
You'll be the big cheese on that orbiting rondelle
You will go to the moon
The shuttle leaves at quarter to noon
I tell you flowers will grow there
But first you got to go there
Oh you will go to the moon
I tell you will go to the moon
You will go to the moon!
