Comedic Song Lyrics


Silent Bob

Recommended Posts

Usually overlooked in "music" categories, I thought I'd give people like Weird Al and Adam Sandler a chance, so post your favorite comedic song lyrics here. They'd be a good read.

 

I'll put a few from one of my favorites - Stephen Lynch

 

Superhero

 

If I could be a superhero, I would be Awesome Man

I'd fly around the world fighting crime, according to my Awesome Plan

And if I saw criminals trying to lie

Hurting other people and making them cry

I'd haul them off to jail in my Awesome Van

Cause I would be Awesome Man

 

If I could be a superhero, I'd be Immigration Dude

I'd send all the foreigners back to their home for eating up all of our food

And taking our welfare and best jobs to boot

Like landscaping, dishwashing, picking our fruit

I'd pass a lot of laws to get rid of their brood

Cause I'd be Immigration Dude

 

If you could be a superhero, would you be Justice Guy?

Making sure people get what they deserve, especially women who lie

Like if a wife left her husband with three kids and no job

To run off to fuckin' Hawaii with some "doctor named Bob"

Would you skin them and drain them of blood so they die?

Especially Bob...

Then you would be Justice Guy

Or you could be more subtle, no, I didn't mean to be vague

Give her the mad cow disease, let him die of the plague

As long as they suffer for their terrible lie

Especially Bob...

Then you would be Justice Guy

Yes then you would be, a superhero like me

 

 

 

If I Were Gay

 

Here we are, dear old friend

You and I, drunk again

The laughs have been had and tears have been shed

Maybe the whiskeys gone to my head

 

But if I were gay I would give you my heart

And if I were gay you'd be my work of art

And if I were gay, we would swim in romance

But I'm not gay

So get your hand out of my pants

 

It's not that I don't care - I do

I just don't see myself in you

Another time, another scene, I'd be right behind you

If you know what I mean

 

And if I were gay I would give you my soul

And if I were gay I would give you my hole...being!

And if I were gay, we would tear down the walls

But I'm not gay

So won't you stop cupping my...uh, hand

Great idea. soem other possible bands might include Frank Zappa, Cake, Barenaked Ladies, The Presidents, They Might Be Giants, Julie Brown.

 

Here's 'Cause I'm A Blonde' by Julie Brown

 

Because I'm a blonde, I don't have to think.

I talk like a baby, and I never pay for drinks.

Don't have to worry 'bout getting a man

If I keep this blonde and I keep these tan,

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I see people workin, it just makes me giggle

'Cause I don't have to work; I just have to jiggle.

I'm a blonde, B-L-O-N-D.

I'm a blonde; don't you wish you were me?

 

I never learned to read, and I never learned to cook.

Why should I bother when I look like I look?

I know lots of people are smarter than me,

But I have this philosophy:

So what?

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I see girls without dates, and I feel so sorry for 'em,

'Cause whenever I'm around, all the men ignore 'em,

'Cause I'm a blonde, nyah, nyah, nyah.

'Cause I'm a blonde, nyah, nyah, nyah.

 

They say that to make it, you need talent and ambition.

Well, I got a TV show, and this was my audition:

Umm ... okay ... what was it? ... umm ...

Don't tell me ... Oh, yeah, okay.

"Duck, Magnum, duck!"

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

I took an IQ test, and I flunked it of course.

I can't spell VW, but I gotta Porsche,

'Cause I'm blonde, B-L-I-N-D.

'Cause I'm a blonde; don't you wish you were me?

 

[spoken]

I just want to say that being chosen this month's Miss August

Is, like, a compliment that I'll remember for as long as I can.

Right now I'm a freshman in my fourth year at UCLA,

But, my goal is to become a veterinarian 'cause I love children!

 

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

'Cause were a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

Girls think I'm snotty, and maybe it's true.

With my hair and body, you would be too.

I'm a blonde, B-L- ... I don't know!

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah.

'Cause I'm a blonde, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Heh heh good choice. Here's a classic.

 

If I Had a Million Dollars

Barenaked Ladies

 

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

I would buy you a house (I would buy you a house)

 

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

I'd buy you furniture for your house (maybe a nice chesterfield or ottoman)

 

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

Well I'd buy you a k-car (a nice reliant automobile)

And if I had a million dollars

I'd buy your love

 

If I had a million dollars

I'd build a tree fort in our yard

If I had a million dollars

You could help, it wouldn't be that hard

If I had a million dollars

Maybe we could put a little tiny fridge in there, somewhere

 

And we could just go up there and hang out

Like open the fridge and stuff

And there'd be foods laid out for us

With little pre-wrapped sausages and things

Mmmm

They have pre-wrapped sausages but they don't have pre-wrapped bacon

Well can you blame 'em? Uh, yeah

 

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

Well I'd buy you a fur coat (but not a real fur coat, that's cruel!)

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

I'd buy you an exotic pet (like a llama! or an emu!)

 

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

Well I'd buy you John Merrick's remains (ew, all them crazy elephant bones)

If I had a million dollars

I'd buy your love

 

If I had a million dollars

We wouldn't have to walk to the store

If I had a million dollars

We'd take a limousine cause it costs more!

If I had a million dollars

We wouldn't have to eat Kraft dinner

But we *would* eat Kraft dinner!

Of course we would, we'd just eat more

And buy really expensive ketchups with it

That's right, all the fanciest ketch-dijon-ketchup!

Mmm, mm!

 

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

Well I'd buy you a green dress (but not a real green dress, that's cruel!)

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

Well I'd buy you some art (like a Picasso or a Garfunkel)

If I had a million dollars (if I had a million dollars)

Well I'd buy you a monkey (haven't you always wanted a monkey?)

If I had a million dollars

I'd buy your love

 

If I had a million dollars

If I had a million dollars

If I had a million dollars

If I had a million dollars

If I had a million do-oo-oo-llars

 

I'd be rich.

To coincide with my new avatar gotta give a shout out to the Python boy's...

 

Half of what I know about philosophy I learned from Drunk Philosophers Song...

 

EEEEEEmannuel Kant was a real pissant who was very rarely stable

Eidegger Eidegger was a boozy beggar who could think you under the table

David Hume could out consume good ol' Friedrich Heigel

And Wittgenstein was a beery swine who was just as sloshed as Schlegel

 

There's nothing Neitsche couldn't teach ya 'bout the raising of the wrist

Socrates himself was perrrrrmenantly pissed

 

John Stuart Mill of his own free will on half a pint of shandy was particularly ill

Plato they say could stick it away half a crate of whiskey every day

Aristotle Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle and Hobbes was fond of his dram

Rene Descartes was a drunken fart "I drink therefore I am"

 

Socrates himself is particularly missssed

Alovelylittlethinkerbutabuggerwhenhe'spissed

 

 

Mind the spelling and such but it is recalled from memory rather than cut and pasted. Impressed? :approve: :D

Heh, good'n, MLB. How 'bout some Mel Brooks?

 

The Spanish Inquisition

 

The Inquisition! Let's begin

The Inquisition! Look out sin

We've got a mission

To convert the Jeeews

 

We've gonna teach 'em wrong from right

We're gonna help 'em see the light

And make an offer

That they can't refuse

 

Confeeeess - don't be boring!

Say yeeeees - don't be dull!

A fact you're ignoring

It's better to lose your skull cap than your skull

 

The Inquisition! Here we go

The Inquisition! What a show

We know you're wishin' that we'd go away

But the Inqusition's here and it's here to stay

 

Imprisoned Jew 1: I was sitting in a temple, I was minding my own business

I was listening to a lovely Hebrew mass

But then soldiers plunge in and they throw me in a dungeon

And they shoved a red hot poker up my ass!

Is that considerate?

Is that polite?

And not a tube of Preparation H in sight!

 

Imprisoned Jew 2: I was sitting eatin' chicken and I'm siftin' through the pickin's

When suddenly these guys break down my walls

I didn't even know them and they grabbed me by the scrotum

And they started playing ping-pong with my balls!

Oh, the agony!

Oo, the shame!

To make my privates public for a game!

 

Brooks: Will you convoit?

Jews: No no no no

Brooks: Will you confess?

Jews: No no no no

Brooks: Will you revoit?

Jews: No no no no

Brooks: Will you say yes?

Jews: No no no no

Brooks: Well I asked in a nice way,

I said "pretty please",

I've bent back their ears

Now I'll work on their knees!

(drums on the Jews knees with clubs)

 

Brooks: Howdy, gents, any converts today?

Guards: Not a one, nay nay nay

Brooks: But we've mashed all their fingers!

We've branded their buns,

Nothing is working!

(snaps fingers) Send in the nuns!

 

The Inquisition! Here we go

The Inquisition! What a show

We know you're wishin'

That we'd go awaaaaaaay

So to all you Muslims and you Jews

We've got some news for all of youse

You better change your point of views

Todaaaaaay

Cause the Inquisition's here

And it's here

Tooooo

Staaaaaaaaay!

Istanbul (not Constantinople)

 

Istanbul was Constantinople

Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople

Been a long time gone, Constantinople

Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night

 

Every gal in Constantinople

Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople

So if you've a date in Constantinople

She'll be waiting in Istanbul

 

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam

Why they changed it I can't say

People just liked it better that way

 

So take me back to Constantinople

No, you can't go back to Constantinople

Been a long time gone, Constantinople

Why did Constantinople get the works?

That's nobody's business but the Turks

Here are two other BNL songs to compliment Bob's. These song made not seem that funny when read, but they're hilarious when heard.

 

Who Needs Sleep?

 

Now I lay me down not to sleep

I just get tangled in the sheets

I swim in sweat three inches deep

I just lay back and claim defeat

 

Chapter read and lesson learned

I turned the lights off while she burned

So while she’s three hundred degrees

I throw the sheets off and I freeze

 

Lids down, I count sheep

I count heartbeats

The only thing that counts is

That I won’t sleep

I countdown, I look around

 

Who needs sleep?

(well you’re never gonna get it)

Who needs sleep?

(tell me what’s that for)

Who needs sleep?

(be happy with what you’re getting

There’s a guy who’s been awake

Since the second world war)

 

My hands are locked up tight in fists

My mind is racing filled with lists

Of things to do and things I’ve done

Another sleepless night’s begun

 

Lids down, I count sheep

I count heartbeats

The only thing that counts is

That I won’t sleep

I countdown, I look around

 

Who needs sleep?

(well you’re never gonna get it)

Who needs sleep?

(tell me what’s that for)

Who needs sleep?

(be happy with what you’re getting

There’s a guy who’s been awake

Since the second world war)

 

Who needs sleep?

(well you’re never gonna get it)

Who needs sleep?

(tell me what’s that for)

Who needs sleep?

(be happy with what you’re getting

There’s a guy who’s been awake

Since the second world war)

 

There’s so much joy in life,

So many pleasures all around

But the pleasure of insomnia

Is one I’ve never found

With all life has to offer,

There’s so much to be enjoyed

But the pleasures of insomnia

Are ones I can’t avoid

 

Lids down, I count sheep

I count heartbeats

The only thing that counts is

That I won’t sleep

I countdown, I look around

 

Hala hala hala...

 

Who needs sleep?

(well you’re never gonna get it)

Who needs sleep?

(tell me what’s that for)

Who needs sleep?

(be happy with what you’re getting

There’s a guy who’s been awake

Since the second world war)

 

Grade 9

 

I found my locker and I found my classes

Lost my lunch and I broke my glasses,

That guy is huge! that girl is wailing!

First day of school and I’m already failing.

 

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

 

I’ve got a blue and red adidas bag and a humongous binder,

I’m trying my best not to look like a minor niner.

I went out for the football team to prove that I’m a man

I guess I shouldn’t tell them that I like duran duran.

 

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

 

Well, half my friends are crazy and the others are depressed

And none of them can help me study for my math test.

I got into the classroom and my knowledge was gone;

I guess I should’ve studied instead of watching wrath of khan.

 

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

 

They called me chicken legs, they called me four-eyes

They called me fatso, they called me buckwheat,

They called me eddie

 

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

 

I’ve got a red leather tie and pair of rugger pants,

I put them on and I went to the high school dance.

Dad said I had to be home by eleven --

Aw, man, I’m gonna miss stairway to heaven.

 

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

This is me in grade nine, baby, this is me in grade nine

A bit out've season, but ah well...

 

The Santa Song

Adam Sandler

 

So many presents

So little time

 

Santa won't be comin' by my house this year

Cause I tried to drown my sister and I pierced my ear

Oh, mama made it perfectly clear

Santa don't like bad boys

Especially Jewish ones!

 

Gnip-gnop and lego blocksis what I desire

So why'd I hafta set the pizza guy's hair on fire?

I told him I was sorry

I'm a liar!

So no toys for me

I don't deserve 'em

 

I coudn't wait for a Big Wheel as the holiday neared

But then I told my grandma that she had a beard

 

(Spoken) Dear Santa, I know what my problem is, why I can't be good. It's a fear of intimacy. You see my whole life whenever I met someone really great like you and I keep feeling like I'm getting too close to them something inside me makes me want to screw it up. So in a weird way the reason I'm so bad...is because I love you so much, Santa.

 

Rock 'em- Sock 'em Robots is what I was hoping for

But then I made a death threat to Vice President Gore

Oh Santa won't be knockin' on my door

Cause he's a big fat whore!

What made me say that?

 

Chutes and Ladders would be so good indeed

So why'd I hafta sell that cop a bag of weed?

Oh Santa please give me my EasyBake Oven

I swear I thought billy goats were made for lovin'!

 

So Santa won't you accept my apology

Santa can't you see, I'm beggin' you please

Oh Santa next year I'll do you right

Live from New York it's Saturday night.

Some more Stephen Lynch...cause I'm sick like that.

 

 

 

Kill a Kitten

 

If the game of life makes you feel like quittin'

It helps a lot if you kill a kitten

Mark my words cause from where I'm sittin'

You can't go wrong if you kill a kitten

 

There's no crime that you'll be committin'

I know the law you can kill a kitten

If you need yarn for that scarf you're knittin'

You'll get plenty if you kill a kitten

 

Feed it turpentine

Or break its spine

Crush him with your shoe

As long as you

Kill a kitten

 

If the one you love isn't quite as smitten

She'll like you better when you kill a kitten

And I quote the Bible cause that's where it's written

If Ye loveth Jesus ye must kill a kitten

 

Flush him down the can

Hit him with your van

Drown him in a lake

Bake a kitty cake

Throw him at a train

Make him snort cocaine

Stick some TNT

Up his cat booty

Do what you must do

As long as you

Kill a kitten

 

Killing kittens isn't easy

And if the thought makes you feel queasy

Grab a pitchfork from the shed

And kill a puppy dog instead

 

Kill a kitten

You got to

Kill a kitten

A little

Furry kitten

A little

Furry kiiiiitteeeeeen

 

 

 

Lullaby

 

Hush little girl, sweet baby, don't cry

Tonight

Daddy is here and he'll sing you a soft lullaby

Tonight

Why can't it all be like it was before

How can I explain why mommy's not here anymore

 

Cause daddy likes porno and ten dollar whores

Daddy gets wasted and robs liquor stores

Daddy likes rubbing against little boys on the bus

I think that's why your mommy left us

 

Hush little girl, there is no reason to fret

Tonight

Don't mind the smoke, daddy just wants to forget

pfffft (cough)tonight

Soon it will all be like it was before

Any minute she will walk through that front door

 

But daddy plays poker and drinks lots of beer

Daddy wants sex that involves mommy's rear

Daddy has sores on his naughty parts oozing with puss

I think that's why your mommy left us

 

Please don't cry

I swear I'll try

To be here by

Your side

 

Right after daddy gets home from the bar

Visits his bookie and steals a new car

He'll drive to the strip club

And if daddy plays his cards right

He'll bring home your new mommy tonight!

 

Ly dee di, ly dee di di dee di dee di dee di

 

 

 

Special Fred

 

When I was a boy of ten

I had a very be-est friend

Friend was kind, with good intent

But just a little different

 

Ohh, Special Fred

Momma dropped him on his head

Now he's not so bright, instead

He's a little bit special

Just a little bit

 

I'd play tag, and he'd get hurt

I'd play soldier, he'd eat dirt

I liked math and the spelling bee

Fred liked talking to a tree

 

Ohh, Special Fred

Momma dropped him on his head

Now she keeps him in the shed

Cause he's a little bit special

Just a little bit

 

I ran track, hung out in malls

Fred ran headfirst into walls

I had girls and lots of clothes

Fred had names for all his toes

 

Ohh, Special Fred

Momma dropped him on his head

Now he thinks he's a piece of bread

Cause he's a little bit special

 

One day talking to Special Fred

He grabbed a brick and he swung at my head

And as he laughed at me that's when I knew

That Special Fred just made me special too

 

Now I laugh as I count bugs

I give strangers great big hugs

Next to me, Fred is fine

Yeah he's a fuckin' Einstein

 

Ohh, Special Fred and me

Now we're not right in the head, you see

Now we're not so bright, instead

We're a little bit special

Just a little bit special

That bastard Fred made me special

Just a little bit

Special

 

 

Some other classics are Taxi Driver and What If the Guy From Smashing Pumkins Lost His Car Keys but they wouldn't transfer well into type.

Life's Gonna Suck by Denis Leary

 

Life’s gonna suck when you grow up, when you grow up, when you grow up,

Life’s gonna suck when you grow up, It sucks pretty bad right now!

 

[Hey! If you know the words, sing along!]

 

You’re gonna have to mow the lawn, do the dishes, make your bed,

You’re gonna have to go to school until you’re 17

 

[it’s gonna seem about 3 times as long as that]

 

You might have to go to war, shoot a gun, kill a nun,

You might have to go to war when you get out of school!

 

[Hey cheer up kids, it gets a lot worse!]

 

You’re gonna have to deal with stress, deal with stress, deal with stress,

You’re gonna be a giant mess when you get back from the war

 

[santa Claus does not exist and there’s no Easter Bunny,

You’ll find out when you grow up that Big Bird isn’t funny!]

 

[FUNNY! FUNNY! FUNNY!]

 

HAHAHAHAHA!

 

Life’s gonna suck when you grow up, when you grow up, when you grow up,

Life’s gonna suck when you grow up, It sucks pretty bad right now!

You’re gonna end up smoking crack, on your back, face the fact,

You’re gonna end up hooked on smack and then you’re gonna die!

 

And then you’re gonna die-ie-ie-ie-ie-ie

 

WAHAY!

:approve: The Lullaby and Special fred ones are deadly. Shame I don't have Kazaa right now.

 

Gonna transcribe an amazing Pixies spoof called 'Motherbanger' by Brit comic Chris Morris (see pic below in signature) and I'll be back with that one. If you ant to get the real affect DL it, the spoof is so good mainly because it sounds exactly like them.

Dresden Dolls, Dirty Business

p><p>we

queen takes jack

you got me this time but i'll get you back

so pick a number

 

to all the ones who tried the most was i supposed to cheer your efforts

sorry that i chose so poorly

golly gee am i the poster girl

 

she's the kind of girl who looks for love in all the lonely places

the kind who comes to poker pockets stuffed with kings and aces

she's the kind of girl who only asks you over when its raining

just to make you lie there catching water dripping from the ceiling

 

lift your hats

off to the checkout girls with tattooed backs

they'd make an angels skin crawl

if you ask them for assistance

there's an even chance

you'll get a number

 

to all the girls at pearl the surly boys who get to masticate them

i've a prize for each and every one of you so just be patient

 

to all the ones that hated me the most a toast

you really had me

going for a second i was nervous

boy am i the poster girl

 

she's the kind of girl who gets her slings and arrows from the dumpster

the kind who tell you she's bipolar just to make you trust her

she's the kind of girl who leaves out condoms on the bedroom dresser

just to make you jealous of the men she fucked before you met her

 

to all the ones who thought they knew me best a test to prove your prowess

who was mine in ‘99 i want last names and current status

to all the ones who hated me the most a toast you really had me going for second

i was nervous boy am i the poster girl

for some suburban sickness

better keep a healthy distance

now its up to you know what to do

it's pretty dirty business

for those of you who can't listen to it, here are the lyrics:

 

White and Nerdy

Weird Al Yankovic

(Parody of Riding Dirty)

 

They see me mowin’

My front lawn

I know they’re all thinking I’m so white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

Can’t you see I’m white and nerdy?

Look at me, I’m white and nerdy

I wanna roll with

The gangstas

But so far they all think I’m too white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

I’m just too white and nerdy.

Really really white and nerdy.

 

First in my class here at MIT

Got skills, I’m a champion at D&D

MC Escher - that’s my favorite MC

Keep your 40, I’ll just have an Earl Grey tea

My rims never spin, to the contrary

You’ll find that they’re quite stationary

All of my action figures are cherry

Steven Hawking’s in my library

My MySpace page is all totally pimped out

Got people beggin’ for my top eight spaces

Yo, I know pi to a thousand places

Ain’t got no grills but I still wear braces

I order all of my sandwiches with mayonnaise

I’m a whiz at Minesweeper - I could play for days

Once you see my sweet moves you’re gonna stay amazed

My fingers’ movin’ so fast I’ll set the place ablaze

There’s no killer app I haven’t run

At Pascal, well I’m number one

Do vector calculus just for fun

I ain’t got a gat but I got a soldering gun

Happy Days is my favorite theme song

I could sure kick your butt in a game of ping pong

I’ll ace any trivia quiz you bring on

I’m fluent in javascript as well as Klingon

 

They see me roll on

My Segway

I know in my heart they think I’m white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

Can’t you see I’m white and nerdy

Look at me, I’m white and nerdy

I’d like to roll with

The gangstas

Although it’s apparent I’m too white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

I’m just too white and nerdy

How’d I get so white and nerdy

 

I’ve been browsin’, inspectin’

X-Men comics, you know I collect ‘em

The pens in my pocket, I must protect ‘em

My ergonomic keyboard never leaves me bored

Shopping online for deals on some writable media

I edit Wikipedia

I memorized Holy Grail really well

I can recite it right now and have you ROTFLOL

I got a business doing websites

When my friends need some code, who do they call?

I do HTML for ‘em all

Even made a homepage for my dog

Yo, I got myself a fanny pack

They were havin’ a sale down at The Gap

Spend my nights with a roll of bubble wrap

Pop, pop, hope no one sees me

Gettin’ freaky

I’m nerdy in the extreme

And whiter than sour cream

I was in AV Club and Glee Club and even the Chess Team

Only question I

Ever thought was hard

Was do I like Kirk

Or do I like Picard

Spend every weekend at the Renaissance Fair

Got my name on my underwear

 

They see me strollin’

They laughin’

And rollin’ their eyes ‘cause I’m so white and nerdy

Just because I’m white and nerdy

Just because I’m white and nerdy

All because I’m white and nerdy

Holy cow, I’m white and nerdy

I wanna bowl with

The gangstas

But, oh well, it’s obvious I’m white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy

I’m just too white and nerdy

Look at me, I’m white and nerdy

Yeah, Weird Al's new album is pretty hot right now. White & Nerdy made it to #9 on the Billboard Top 100 charts, even higher than Beat It make in teh day (peaked at #13). He attributes the new wave of success to YouTube showing weird Al to a whole new generation who never knew him before.

Just for today, more Stephen Lynch

 

Halloween

 

Thinking of all the cool creatues that I will meet

On this night

Ghosts and goblins and witches, roaming the streets

In moonlight

 

Bowls of candy and goodies delicious and waiting

In store

The sound of cute little footsteps as they approach

My front door

 

Letting the children inside to drink beers

Razor blades hidden in Three Musketeers

Screams from the basement of kids begging to be set free

That's what Halloween means to me

 

Tightening the clamps that are holding their little heads

So tight

Putting my lips to their ears as I whisper "Please

Don't fight."

 

I promise I'll let you go home if you swear not to tell

A soul

Now I'll just untie these. I'm kidding. Now where is my chainsaw?

Let's rock and roll

 

A pinch of your brother, a teaspoon of you

With the head of your sister would make a good stew

I'd give you a taste, but your tongue's in the stew. Irony

That's what Halloween means to me

 

Trick or treat, smell my feet

Give me something good to eat

Trick or treat, smell my feet

Give me someone

Good to eat

 

 

Also a couple of my favorites from the same album.

 

Craig

 

Everyone knows Jesus

The man who healed the lame

I am Jesus' brother

Craig is my name

 

Jesus is the Prince of Peace

Jesus is the Lamb

Jesus is the Son of God

But Craig don't give a damn

 

Because when Craig's inside

We'll party all damn night

I don't turn water into wine

But into cold Coor's Light

I'm not my brother, I know

Don't walk on H20

But I got hydroponic shit

That me and Judas grow

I'm fuckin' Craig

I'm fuckin' Craig

I'm fuckin' Craig

Craig Christ

 

I hang out with lepers

Barabas and Solome'

Jesus' friends are called Apostles

Those dudes are totally gay

 

Jesus performs miracles

From Galilee to Rome

But it would be a miracle

If He brought a fuckin' lady home

 

Because while Jesus is prayin'

Fuckin' Craig is layin'

Every lady in the Testament

You know what I'm sayin'

I won't die for your sins

Like my famous kin

But if you've got a little sister

Then there's room at this inn

I'm fuckin' Craig

I'm fuckin' Craig

I'm fuckin' Craig

Craig Christ

 

Jesus was our mother's fav

All her love to him she gave

But there's no sibling rivalry

When he's nailed to that tree

 

And now the question to you

Is not what would Jesus do

But where will you be when the Craig Machine

Comes partyin' through

And if the Lord will allow

You've got to ask yourself how

And who and why and when and where

Is your Messiah now?

It's fuckin' Craig

Fuckin' Craig

Fuckin' Craig

I'm fuckin' Craig

Craig Christ

Craig Christ

Craig Christ

I'm fuckin' Craig

 

 

Ok so that one was wrong. But so is this one, probably my personal favorite of his:

 

 

Little Tiny Moustache

 

You're the love of my life

But it cuts like a knife

And I feel that I'm being misled

See, I'm a little concerned

For I recently learned

Of the swastika tattoo on your head

 

And it makes you smile

When you hear "Sieg heil"

You love the smell of a burning cross in the yard

You do goose step salutes

In your Doc Martin boots

And you quoted Mein Kampf in our fifth anniversary card

 

I think you're a nazi, baby

Are you a nazi?

You might be a nazi, baby

 

You keep extensive files

On the Nuremburg Trials

And you watch them whenever they're airing

I guess I should have known

When you bought a new bone

For your puppies named Goebbels and Goering

 

You showed up late

To our very first date

I said "how are you", you said "white power".

Call me paranoid

But I'm not overjoyed

When you ask me if I want to shower

 

I think you're a nazi

Don't be lyin', baby

Are you a nazi?

Are you anti-Zion, maybe?

 

Your every dress

Is monogrammed SS

You hold and Aryan picnic and bash

And it makes me irate

When you say I look great

When I wear a little tiny moustache

 

Your social politics

Say that races don't mix

And you call it pureblood pollution

And whenever I'm sad

You say it's not so bad

For every problem there's a final solution

 

I think you're a nazi

Give me an answer, baby

Are you a nazi?

You drive a fucking Panzer, baby

 

They say that love is blind, but how could I have guessed?

But then again, I met you at the Wagner-fest

 

I know you're a nazi

And that's why I'm leavin'

I know you're a nazi

Sure as my name is Stephen

Lynch

Berg

Stein

 

 

I could go on, his whole last album is gold, but that's already a lotta readin'.

I Like Chinese

 

The world today is absolutely cracked.

With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high.

There's fools and idiots sitting on the trigger.

It's depressing, and it's senseless, and that's why...

 

(singing)

I like chinese,

I like chinese,

They only come up to you knees,

Yet they're always friendly and they're ready to to please.

 

I like chinese,

I like chinese,

There's nine hundred million of them in the world today,

You'd better learn to like them, that's what I say.

 

I like chinese,

I like chinese,

They come from a long way overseas,

But they're cute, and they're cuddly, and they're ready to please.

 

I like chinese food,

The waiters never are rude,

Think the many things they've done to impress,

There's maoism, taoism, eging and chess.

 

I like chinese,

I like chinese,

I like their tiny little trees,

Their zen, their ping-pong, their ying and yang-eze.

 

I like chinese thought,

The wisdom that Confusious taught,

If Darwin is anything to shout about,

The chinese will survive us all without any doubt.

 

So, I like chinese,

I like chinese,

They only come up to you knees,

Yet they're wise, and they're witty, and they're ready to please

 

Wo ai Zhong-guo ren [Wo, I chumba run]

Wo ai Zhong-guo ren

Wo ai Zhong-guo ren

Ni Hao Ma? Ni Hao Ma? Ni Hao Ma? Zai zhen [Ne hamma? ... Chi Chen]

 

I like chinese,

I like chinese,

They're food is guaranteed to please,

A fourteen, a seven, a nine and li-chese

 

I like chinese,

I like chinese,

I like their tiny little trees,

Their zen, their ping-pong, their yin and yang-eze

 

I like chinese,

I like chinese,

(fade out....)

 

Decomposing Composers

 

Beethoven's gone, but his music lives on,

And Mozart don't go shopping no more,

You'll never meet Liszt or Brahms again,

And Elgar doesn't answer the door.

 

Schubert and Chopin used to chuckle and laugh

Whilst composing a long symphony,

But one hundred and fifty years later,

There's very little of them left to see.

 

The decomposing composers,

There's nothing much anyone can do,

You can still hear Beethoven,

But Beethoven cannot hear you.

 

HÃndel and Haydn and Rachmaninow,

Enjoyed a nice drink with their meal,

But nowadays no one will serve them,

And the gravy is left to congeal.

 

Verdi and Wagner delighted the crowds,

With a highly original sound,

The pianos they played are still working,

But they're both six feet underground.

 

The decomposing composers,

There's less of them every year,

You can say what you like to Debussy,

But there's not much of him left to hear.

 

Claude Achile Debussy, died 1918

Christoph Willibald Gluck, died 1787

Carl Maria von Weber, not at all well, 1825. Died 1826

Giacomo Meyerbeer still alive 1863, not still alive 1864

Modest Mussorgsky 1880 going to parties, no fun anymore, 1881

Johann Nepomuk Hummel chattin' away 19 and a dozen with his mates

down at the pub every evening 1836, 1837 - nothing.

ACID COUNTRY

 

 

 

Mama made us listen to Pink Floyd and Floyd Cramer

 

We had three square meals of mushrooms and cornbread

 

Mama's kitchen smelled a lot like incense and cathead biscuits

 

We'd watch Porter and Dolly then throw on the Grateful Dead

 

 

1st CHORUS

 

Born and raised on acid country

 

Eating turnip greens and a handful of Nebutals

 

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

 

"You can't play Hendrix on a banjo"

 

Mama Walked The Flood and laid another brick in The Wall

 

 

 

 

Our heroes were Roy Acuff and Abbey Hoffman

 

And we grew up outside of Woodstock, Tennessee

 

Listening to Faron Young and a side of Inagaddadivita

 

Mama made a well rounded outcast out of me

 

 

 

2nd CHORUS

 

Born and raised on acid country

 

Eating cold hamhocks and a handful of placidils

 

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

 

"Playing Alice Cooper on a dobro"

 

Wearing leather hip pokers working in the cotton fields

 

 

 

BRIDGE

 

 

And if you Don't eat your meat you can't have any pudding'

 

And son you're walking on the Fighting Side Of Me

 

Excuse me while I kiss the sky

 

I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die

 

Chet Atkins singing 'I want my MTV'

 

 

 

3rd CHORUS

 

Born and raised on acid country

 

Making Smoke On Water sound a lot like Uncle Pen

 

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

 

"You can't mix Deep Purple and Bill Monroe"

 

And Sunshine Of Your Love while yodeling

 

 

-----------------------------------

 

MAMA WAS A HITMAN

 

I remember when I was 'bout 2 years old

in a play pen on a grassy knoll

countin hollow points, waving at cars

with some new schoolbooks Mr. Oswald said were ours.

Mama would take us to work and some Cuban held on our hand.

Mama was a Hitman

 

We’d cross the country changing schools

Mama and me and some guy named Raoul.

I failed the fourth grade cause they said I was dumb.

They found the principal floatin in a 55-gallon drum.

then all the teachers put me on the straight A plan.

Mama was a Hitman

 

I tried basketball in the 7th grade

you could count on one hand the shots that I made.

I got to practice a little, but I didn't play none

until the coach found an ice pick stuck threw his cranium.

the assistant coach said 'son I’m you biggest fan'.

Mama was a Hitman

 

She baked cyanide cookies and rigged car bombs

all the while disguised as a soccer mom.

our little league coach was James Earl Ray

our team pictures were taken by the CIA

she could whack out a witness while workin the concession stand

Mama was a Hitman

 

(Thats my mama)

 

Our babysitter was Mr. something Sirhan

Mama was a Hitman

 

She could build a bomb in a bowl of raisin bran

Picked us up from school and we flew to Afghanistan

Mama was a Hitman
