SO WHAT
Naive brats play each day
Messing with the young at hand
Pubescent smiles turn to cramps
Get back to your bible school
So what if your mother kicks me in the nuts?
Parental discretion was the word
Words I speak will be heard
Sitting in your easy chair
Now you’ve done it, wet in your pants
So what if your mother kicks me in the nuts?
NOT MY KIND
Don’t give a shit, don’t really care
Don’t give a fuck about what I wear
Look at my eyes, see why I stare
All your lies reflected there
Not my kind
Not my kind
Not my kind
Not my kind
Stood in everybody’s way for so long
Is there a place, except at home?
Seems okay being a loner
I get the fuck right out of here
Not my kind, you stupid cunt
Not my kind, you stupid cunt
Not my kind, you stupid cunt
Not my kind, you stupid cunt
Not my kind
SCIENCE'S FICTION
Dream to be modern, human toil replaced
Technology build a panacea, “Acquire leisure labour-free”
But a mechanical appetite, “Machine has its maintenance”
When I hear that mellifluous voice
I know it’s ‘Science’s fiction’
HOUSTON (originally by Dean Martin)
It’s lonesome in this old town
Everybody puts me down
I’m a face without a name
Just walking in the rain
Going back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I got holes in both of my shoes
I’m a walking case of the blues
Saw a dollar yesterday
But the wind blew it away
Going back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I haven’t eaten in about a week
I’m so hungry, when I walk I squeak
Nobody calls me friend
It’s sad the shape I’m in
Going back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I got a girl waiting there for me
Well, at least she said she’d be
I got a home and a big, warm bed
And a feather pillow for my head
Going back to Houston, Houston, Houston
