lyrics

For a jerk you’ve come a long way

nursing your sweethearts, raising your breed
sweeping your backyard, sorting out weeds
sparing a hug, fixing a hole
giving a shrug to the girl on the pole

it’s ranking, not wanking
it’s poultry, not poetry
it’s money trees, not funny please
it’s royalties, not loyalties

estimate madness on a scale
when whatever you do you don’t need it to pay off at any rate
plastered geek just gimme one more hint
and whatever you need I’m gonna serve it on a silver plate

makin’ up a livin’, turning the latch
makin’ up an image, makin’ your match
nursing neurosis, counting the days
mental necrosis, a condition to praise

it’s ranking, not wanking
it’s poultry, not poetry
it’s money trees, not funny please
it’s royalties, not loyalties

Acid boy tripping on your fear
When everybody else is out there laughing out with mass appeal
Ginger jerk, you’re so pale, you’re clear
And wherever you’re moving you end up putting your shoulder to the wheel
