A little smoke a bit of tar
Eno’s head in a jar
From me to you from you to me
John Cale is stripped of his OBE
Elton retires and he haunts the grounds
Of a locked down fortified compound

Christ On A Cracker
01:59

I was cold I was lonely
were you there were you there
I was cold I was hungry were you there
Christ on a cracker
Could you Imagine
The image of the saviour it was there, it was there
Wherever you eat cheese I'll be there, I'll be there
Wherever you eat cheese I'll be there
Christ on a cracker
Could you Imagine
The image of the saviour it was there, it was there
The image of the saviour it was there
The image of the saviour it was there, it was there
The image of the saviour it was there
Christ on a cracker
Could you Imagine
The image of the saviour it was there, it was there

Shelf Stacker
05:18
|

I’m a font of useless knowledge
This is funding me through college
I don’t need or want your pity
One day I’ll leave this city
I wanna be your shelf stacker
Whatever you throw comes right back at you
I wanna be your shelf stacker
I’m saving up for an 8 tracker
I don’t know where what you want is
I just move it from shelf to shelf
I don’t keep tabs on products
I will dance on your graves
I wanna be your shelf stacker
Whatever you throw comes right back at you
I wanna be your shelf stacker
I’m saving up for an 8 tracker
I’ve no real likes or hates
I hate you all the same
I will destroy you all in my memoirs
But I’ve been saying that for 20 years
I wanna be your shelf stacker
Whatever you throw comes right back at you
I wanna be your shelf stacker
I saw the face of Jesus on a cream cracker

Insurance Agent 2

My insurance
Helps me sleep at night
My insurance
Helps me stay uptight
My insurance
Just behind the door
My insurance
All the hitting power of a 2 by 4
I can’t sleep at night (rpt)

Zoom on the Can

24 hours till the end of the night
And the only life I know
24hrs til the end of the night
There’s nowhere else to go
Zoom on the can
If you’re that type of man
Zoom on the can
I don’t know if I can
I have nothing left to give
I live a life of lies
There is no more to forgive
And now forgivings dies
Zoom on the can
If you’re that type of man
Zoom on the can
I don’t know if I can
I’m younger than I feel
But older than i know
I’ve no discernible appeal
From far too long ago

Three F's and a D
01:37

3 F’s and a D
Why not try a G
It always seems to me
None so blind that cannot see
3F’s and a D
Choose who you want to be
It doesn’t mean a lot to me
I’ve managed 2 in 3
3F’s and a D
3F’s and a D
3F’s and a D
That will get me through university

Before my body's laid to rest
There's something that i must confess
It weighs so heavy on my soul
My distaste for rock n roll
See i was never into it
The sex and drugs was more my thing
Green m and ms and groupies
Needles and relentless touring
The music was a joke
I only knew one note
The rest I had to fake
So the boys and I got paid
Now St. Peter at the Gates there
I'm ret to meet my maker
But he's got to say the nay no
The gates to heaven's sealed and closed
For those who don't love rocknroll
He pulls a lever
casts me down
Thru the clouds, thru the ground
Into a dark conflagration
Eternal hell and damnation
Face to face with the devil
He says hi, I say hello
Because you don't like rock n roll
Your soul is mine, I'll be unkind
And if you change your mind
About rock n roll
Back up to heaven
We'll send your soul
Until then you'll feel the cold
Of separation from the Lord
Do I have to learn to love it?
Can I just tolerate it?
Mere toleratation doesn't cut it
In your heart you have to love it
Now more than ever
I hate rock n roll
In hell forever
I hate rock n roll
Additional words by Russ:
get this relic off my chest
confess it boy confess it
no body on my soul
rock and roll
into what?
sing it baby sing it
blue velvets
another worth another toke
fake it
laid
rock n roll
spend my seed on fallow ground
ground)
something every nation
that i know
mine alone x3
love love love
