O,
Say you're an African Elephant...
even if the whole world voted for Ricky Santorum
in the end
baby, it'll be okay
just keep singin that ball n' chain music baby just keep slingin that ball n' chain...
I know your parents are underwater on their mortgage
can't afford yr daily poorage so you forage at Whole Foods,
take all yr poops at the Caribou
and I know politics is bollocks
we know we voting daily with our wallet's go to th mall...
buy up all their balls,
and we can swing that ball n' chain over their heads baby we can sing that ball n' chain music...

Uht oh,
Cherry Nose
opens up a bottle with the space between his toes
he goes 'oh my Cherry Pie, likes to get fucked n' she loves getting high'
she thinks, 'oh my I'm getting fat thighs' pulling up her pantyhose she aimlessly sighs,
'well it's tough shit, bitch, you can't quit putting on the Ritz, that's what y' get for bein a fuckin' addict'
'but' she says, hot damn that candy man, he's workin in the desert for me in that desert sand thinkin somethin like 'oh man y'know man I need a fan, I'm soakin in muh old sweat n I'm getting a tan' but he really thinks, “oh my, that Cherry Pie, fingering you was like fucking the sky”
(2 weeks later)
'well whoopty doo, how are you?
You look like a fuckin idiot an ye smell like a zoo,
but how do you do, can I help you?
You been actin like a stranger to me since you started rollin' wit that new crew'
'Oh fuck you Nancy Drew! Who ever gave you the right to pry into my life,
I been with like 9 other guys, n' I'm getting on fine. There's a place in Little Five,
three bottles of wine ten ninety nine!

Only Love
04:09
|

Drugs'll rob you of yr illusions.
Penetration just causes confusion.
Draw yr' own conclusions;
Only love will never fool you
and education is for consumers
if you believe the internet rumors.
The government is a tumor;
Only love will never fool you
Your boss will try to tool you
while your tutors try to school you
only your mother/girlfriend/goldfish should ever rule you;
only love will never fool you.

Fidodeeo D'oh!
05:10

O,
1492 Columbus heard a crazy tune,
it went wop-boppa-looboo, uh, whop bam-boom
...somethin about blue suede shoes, so he headed west
for the eastern sea
with the Nina,
the Pinta, and a tambourine!
Tryin to remember this crazy tune...
(first hear-d it in a dream...)
(it went)
O! Fidodeeo dough!
He came upon a patch of land, callin himself an American,
it was the perfect spot for a Democracy;
pot was cheap and labor was free!
O! Fidodeeo Dough!
With slavery and peyote we had thirteen crazy colonies,
until one day when, SUDDENLY!
The Indians busted in on us and took all of our tea, threw it into the sea, I know, we was all like, 'O.M.G'!
It was the beginning of World War Three
following a simple motto:
O! Fidodeeo dough!
With Washington at Valley Forge,
t'was freezin cold, but up spoke George, he said,
'Fo-doh-dee-oh' an 'Beetle um bumm,'
'I wanna hold your hand' 'All you need is love'
Crazy words,
crazy tune,
he was fighting the American Revolution what are you doing, Dad?
And then Saddam Hussein boarded a plane,
ruining everybody’s groovy Tuesday,
so we sent some tanks in to investigate,
opening up those most porous of gates.
There's oil everywhere.

It works if you work it that ball an chain
It works if you work it that good old ball an chain.
O! I been searching for that lowered down heavenly road
I heard it was paved in my woe.
-'Well, it is if you say it is,
-it is if you think it is
-it is if you heard it was it's all the same...
because it works when you work it.
That ball an chain.
O! I been sinking down a low low lonely hole
a grave I fell into eight years ago!
-'Well, it only sucks if you suck it,
-it only sucks when you suck at it
-it sucks when you suck it that good old
ball
and
chain.
