lyrics

A self-serving bastard offspring
Of the cesspool that you swam
Fancied you a public cervix
Turned the screws, who gives a damn
Swat a fly and love a maggot
That's the nature of the beast
Vicious circles, mad relations
You're emotionally deceased

Did you ever have dreams
That were more than obligations?
Did you ever see the world
From the driver's seat?
I've heard you contradict yourself
By talking sense
Give up your white picket fence
Give up your white picket fence

Martyrs never get to savor
All the good that goes around
And a lifetime's worth of memories
Will be auctioned by the pound
As you claw from "a" to "b"
You'll see me slide from "b" to "a"
And I hope we'll find nirvana
When we finally meet halfway

Oh no no, got to stop the criticism
It's the one thing you can't take
Oh no no, got a nasty reputation
It's the one thing you can't shake
Oh no no, you're a white trash rattlesnake

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
