From the album "The Dark Side of the Turd" - 2011

lyrics

HERE IT IS MOTHERFUCKERS
A MESSAGE OF TRUTH AND HOPE
A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR THE CLUELESS THAT WILL HELP YOU COPE
WITH THE FACT THAT THE WORLD IN WHICH WE ROT IS FUCKING WHACK
HAVE I HOOKED YOU? GOOD! NOW SIT THE FUCK BACK
WE GOT SOME BACKGROUND TO COVER BEFORE YOU CAN DISCOVER
THE SIMPLE TRUTH ABOUT THE WAY THE WORLD IN WHICH WE ROT IS GOVERNED
THE DEPTH OF THE CORRUPTION THREATENS SERIOUS DISRUPTIONS OF THE GLOBAL ECONOMY, SO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FIRST, RECOGNIZE WHERE THE TRUE POWER LIES
IT'S IN THE HANDS OF THE CORPORATIONS THAT HAVE LONGSTANDING TIES TO MANY SEASONED POLITICIANS WHO RELY ON CONTRIBUTIONS FROM FILTHY RICH CEOS WHO WISH TO KEEP POLLUTING
OUR RIVERS, LAKES, AND OCEANS WITH A POTENT TOXIC POTION
SO MR. SPEAKER, I PLACE BEFORE THE FLOOR THIS MOTION
START UP A P.R. CAMPAIGN DESIGNED TO INFORM THE CITIZENRY OF OUR COUNTRY
THE POWER LIES IN HOW THEY CHOOSE TO SPEND THEIR MONEY

WE'RE TOLD TO CELEBRATE ABUNDANCE
BELIEVE THE MYTH AND YOU MIGHT GET RICH
OR YOU MIGHT BREAK EVEN OR EVEN GO BUST
SELFLESSNESS TO ASHES - TRUST TO DUST
I DON'T PUT MY FAITH IN MUCH MAN
I'M WISE TO THAT SCAM
FAITH IS CHUMP'S BAIT
RELIGION IS A SHAM
BUT NOW WE SEE THESE WACKOS MISINTERPRETATIONS OF MYTHOLOGY BECOME POLICY
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST - ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
DOES NOT THE CONSTITUTION STATE SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE?
SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND
THEIR AIN'T NO DEBATE
THERE CAN'T BE NO CLEAN SLATE WHEN THEOLOGY MATES WITH POLICY
ALL WE CAN DO IS PRAY
BUT OUR SINFUL BEHAVIOR CAN'T BE PRAYED AWAY MAN
OUR SPITEFUL DEMEANOR REVEALS A MEANER STREAK
A BLEAKER FREAK WOULD SPEAK MEEKLY - WEARILY STATING A WARNING THAT THE MORNING SHALL BRING DREADFUL THINGS

MAN HOW I WISH MY WHIT WAS SHARP AND GRITTY
I'D DRIVE AROUND THE CITY SCREAMING "HERE KITTY KITTY!"
WHISTLING A DITTY BY THE PRETTY THINGS
OR WATCHING "LORD OF THE RINGS: RETURN OF THE KING"
I'VE HAD A FLING WITH DANGER
I'VE FLIRTED WITH DISASTER
I HAVE YET TO MEET MY MAKER BUT I HAVE MET MY MASTER
THAT BASTARD INSISTED THAT I REFRAIN
FROM DOING ANYTHING THAT SONICALLY COULD STIMULATE YOUR BRAIN
FROM THE GREAT-PLAINS OF THE MIDWEST I HAIL
THUS ONE MUST CONCLUDE MY SHREWD DEMEANOR NEVER FAILS
TO SHOCK ALL YOU P.C. YUPPIES IN CALIFORNIA
HERE, GO LIKE THIS... YOU GOT A LITTLE ON YA'
\NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS, SMOOTH JAZZ, OR SOFT ROCK
THE BASSTURD IS BRINGING HELL TO ALL YOU FUCKERS' BLOCKS
GLOCK FREE IS THE LIFE FOR ME
DIRTY IS THE AIR I BREATHE

IF YOU CAN'T RESPECT THAT YOUR WHOLE PERSPECTIVE IS PLAYED
MAYBE YOU'LL LOVE ME WHEN I FADE TO BEIGE
(REPEAT)
