- Bad Penny
"Bad Penny" -- Big Black Form the album, "Songs About Fucking"
Ought to know what I liar I am
Ought to know me by now
Don't curse me for my nature
Don't blast me for my wrongs
Just a bad penny I always come back to you Just a bad penny
Just a bad penny I always come back to you
Should have known you couldn't trust me
- Bazooka Joe
The Joe man is back
When Joe comes back Joe's head will crack
When Joe's head cracks, when that big head cracks
It's "Welcome back, Joe. Welcome back, Joe."
You don't have to be alone Joe, you don't have to be alone Joe
Hang with me Joe, hang with me Joe, hang with me Joe
You don't have to be alone Joe, you don't have to be alone Joe
The Joe man is back
- He's a Whore
I see the face
Got a face you could stop a clock
With that face I'm sure to let it stop
To look her in the eyes
Dead mother's mm??
Like jewels so un-mm??
She's still so close to my reach
If I call, if I call at all
- I'm A Mess
Oh, honey I'm a mess
Oh, a useless set of legs
Oh, honey I'm a waste
Oh, honey I'm a wreck
But I will maintain
Time to spend
In the reading truck??
That always runs slow
- Jordan, Minnesota
This is Jordan, we do what we like
This is Jordan, we do what we like
Stay with me, my five year old
Stay with me, play hide and seek
Stay with me, my five year old
This is Jordan, we do what we like
And this will stay with you until you die
And this will stay with you until you die
- Kerosene
I was born in this town
Live here my whole life
Probably come to die in this town
Live here my whole life
Never anything to do in this town
Live here my whole life
Never anything to do in this town
- Kitty Empire
The Emperor makes his rounds, Master of all Cats
Fat in the Midwest, Emperor rolls his little balls -- Catland
Says hi to his pal Walter, for all that smoking in the backyard
The neighbors do not understand, he's an aberration
Even makes a funny noise
He plays great hunter with a ball-point pen
When the cat's away, ah, it's a regular rat day
When the rat's away, ah, King Cat, King Cat can play day
- Passing Complexion
She was his
She would take his children
Black and white
Right to her own breast
There were times
When he could mix
With ordinary white company
Though?? the subject never came up
- R.I.P.
That man's shirt is worth more than your life
And I'd rather kill him than insult you
He hasn't the sense to know we're fighting
He hasn't the fear to run
We have to rip this up
It doesn't look quite right
People like that, too dirty to save
Better watch out, friend
- Stinking Drunk
Been so long
Forgot what it's like
Like swimming, like sex, like taking a bang
Like fist fight
Think it's time got stinking drunk
Think it's time
Been so long
Who brought me to this?
- Things To Do Today
Buy a pack of squares
Arrive at the apartment
Confront the investor
Explain the situation
Have him sign the documents
Bind him to a chair
Handcuff him
Place him face down on the bed
- Tiny, King of the Jews
I started out drinking, I stays that way
mm mm all in me
And I killed another day
On the wall there's another there
I hacked through another night
By the look of mm my hand
I'm adrift and I can't mm
I started out hating myself and when I'm through
