lyrics

Her passions were impossible
And ill equipped to last
Her weapons were so subtle
That I never felt the blast
Her morals were rejected
They afford no convenience
To a woman who's impaled
Upon the past

And I say thanks but no thanks
I'd rather keep my wits about me
Thanks but no thanks
You were not the first to doubt me
Claiming you could love without me
Now you've got a splendid opportunity

Her talents were considerable
But she preferred to tease
Her greatest pleasure came
From bringing people to their knees
Her ethics were elastic
As befits the sort of hypocrite
Who revises their espoused beliefs
With ease

And when I'm philosophical
I say she's not to blame
All her family ever gave her was her name
But knowing her misfortune
Doesn't change the way I feel
She ought to dry her eyes and take the wheel
Kick those horses into life
And see her hometown
Through the rear view mirror

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
