lyrics

perhaps I strike you as a little aloof
I’m only here to earn the right to a roof
I have ambitions but they’re not too refined
I have ambitions but they’re all in the mind

don’t want for nothing but a place in the sun
don’t want for nothing but a place in the sun
don’t want for nothing but a place in the sun
don’t want for nothing
but I’m chasing a place in the sun

perhaps I strike you as a bundle of rage
I’m sorry we’re not always on the same page
I have ambitions but they’re nothing like yours
I have ambitions that would blow off your doors

perhaps I strike you as a little insane
a village idiot abusing his brain
I have ambitions but you know what they’re worth
I have ambitions but they’re not of this earth

GET RUDE!
by Dan O'Connell & The Cast Of 1,000s

Dan O'Connell is an old friend and long time collaborator, but before I'd even met "Danimal", he was recording some parody, novelty and good ol' pop songs all on his lonesome. Rubberstamp Records

Songs From Your Face
by Jeffy

Jeffy makes four-trackin' fun. Each cassette he sells has a one-of-a-kind collage for art. Rubberstamp Records
