AN ALBATROSS LYRICS

1. Birds

2. PA Inferno

Oh my God, Pennsylvania's an inferno!
Watch it fall down to the ground!
Oh my God, Pennsylvania's an inferno!
Everyone look what's goin' down...

3. Mother's Day Came a Little Early This Year

Pieces pierce the flesh, another drops to the floor
Trembling words from years worth of damage.
Pick up the shards and slab.
Never an encouraging word.
This is the thanks we get?
Taught by silence...
Bound and gagged--never again.

4. You Can't Take That Hot-Rod With You When You Go

Today, they buried a good man.
It got me to thinking about all of the worthless shit
The plastic people worry their lives away with.
Man, life isn't mortgages,
Life isn't diamonds, baby (*shine*shine*)
Life's not your sports car or SUV
Life's not traffic
Life's not made of plastic
Life's not made of plastic

5. Channel 96

Motherfucker, I see through your death rays
And you can't brainwash me you fucks!
Stone cold busted!
Not my head, not my lawn...

6. Uncle Funky Pants

[written by Phillip Price, for Penny (1987-1999)]

7. Electric Suits & Cowboy Boots

Baby, baby let it flow child.
It's the tingly, brilliant sensation below now.
The butterflies in our guts make it alright,
(Give 'em) bricks, cocktails & flowers, baby alright.
Baby let it go now, Try and let it go.
Suits on fire yeah, Electric suits!
Cowboy boots!
Baby turn it out now
Baby turn it the fuck off now.

8. I Live the the Good Life

Howdy, son--you can't fuck with me,
I'm untouchable, dig?
Black gold pumpin' through my veins,
Child, we'll give you a smile, a thumbs up
Promise you whatever you wanna hear
(Out of my ass)
So hell, roll out that red carpet boys,
I'm living the the good life.

9. The Man Eating Pig of Madidi

Lap it up, strap it on!
Run it in, Does it feel so right?
It shits, It eats, It sleeps--
He's a man-eating swine, child--
Soul eater, extraordinaire--
Pig cock in my face:
(but a snip here, a snip there,
I'll feed you your manhood, fucker)
You're a monster, baby...

10. The Great Sarcophagus

Oh, see us withering away?
Breaking apart at the seams...
The Great Sarcophagus takes advantage of the decline...
Dollars, decay--on its reeking breath,
...your filthy capital, I'll never surrender!
Red, white and blue--(consumed)
Unquenchable maggots!!!

11. Kluver-Bucy Nocturne in Bb
