lyrics

why did you do, why did you not
why did you forget that you forgot
you should've known, you could've guessed
you'd pass the exams but fail the test

you belong in outer space
it's written on your face, it seeps from your pores
you belong in outer space
in some far distant place that's totally yours

show them a sign, show them results
show them that you're one of the adults
fall on your face, fall on your sword
fall just an inch shy of your reward

you belong in outer space
because the human race is bringing you down
you belong in outer space
in some far distant place with no one around

you holy fool, you're full of holes
walking in your sleep over hot coals
head in the clouds, clouds in the head
so very alive, so nearly dead

you belong in outer space
it's written on your face, it seeps from your pores
you belong in outer space
in some far distant place that's totally yours

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
