SUBURBIA (Foster/Richard) Houses are spread out too far Too many trees and too many cars Everyone works or everyone hides Too many birds in suburban skies Too many burnouts, too many jocks Middle class scumbags, think they're smart They go to school and comb their hair And always have the right clothes to wear Suburbia Go hangout at the Livingston Mall Nothing to buy, too many stores Too many joggers on the streets Gonna run 'em over in my beat up car Go for a walk through the center of town Or hop in the car and cruise around Mow the lawn, take out the trash Go in mom's pocketbook and take her cash Suburbia OLD PEOPLE TALK LOUD (Zombie/Mindless/Richard) Old people talk loud WHAT? Old people smell bad WHAT? Old people walk slow WHAT? Old people complain They wouldn't know their names it it weren't on the check, Tie up traffic in their Dodge Swingers, Child proof caps are a problem with arthritis, They're just too senile for anything else. CHORUS Spend their golden years walking the dog Get their foodstamps, buy Geritol, Stay up late nights, pop Sominex, You lived your lives why don't you just go die CHORUS TRANS AM (Foster/Richard) So you just graduated from high school, and Daddy bought you a brand new Trans Am, it's the really cool black one with the big bird painted on thhe hood, and the fancy wheel with the tires with the letters on the, and those things in the back, you don't even know what they're called. Don't worry, no one'll notice, just buy a Playboy bunny air-freshener, a few stuffed animals, fuzzy dice, a stick-on rainbow for the back window, and everyone'll love your brand new car. But why do you take up three parking spaces? 2x Driving the car don't make you cool, Guy behind the wheel is still a fool 2x I hate Trans Ams they look like shit, I hate T.A.'s the driver's a prick It's your last summer in town until you go off to college, might as well have as much fun now as you can, bummer, man, you had to buy your own personalized license plates, but Mom is paying for your insurance, so you don't have a worry in the world, except maybe gas money, and I bet you can pick up lots of really sweet babes in your brand new Trans Am, maybe even the entire cheerleading squad, and they'll just love your brand new car. But you ain't goin' nowhere. |
HOUSE HUSBAND (Foster/Richard) Find a rich wife, Make her go to work, She'll bring home the bacon, I'll go on a diet, I'll stay home Clean the house I'll make lots of garbage She'll throw it out I'll cook dinner, watch TV Iron the clothes and watch TV Life's not boring, I'll do the shopping, She'll come home, She'll be too tired, I'll raise the kids, Lazy bums, They're just like me, They'll be house husbands. MISCHIEF NIGHT (Richard) Dozens of eggs, can of paint, Bar of soap and razon blades, Your pool's on fire, doors are nailed shut Windows all broke and your wires are cut. Flaming bag of dog shit on your stairs Ruin your fuzzy slippers, we don't care. Time to be bad, sick of being good, Wanna blow up the neighborhood It's mischief night, gotta be home before the curfew, It's mischief night, it's mindless violence We just want to hurt you. Mailbox is burning, tires are slashed, Poisoned your dog and strangled your cat, Soaped up your windows, egged your car, With sugar in your gas tank you won't go far. STATUS SYMBOL (Richard) Don't care about your diamond ring, don't care about your mercedes-benz Don't care about your fur coat, don't care about your big mansion I don't care how you spend your cash, one of these days you'll wind up last Status symbols, you got more to lose You got more to lose, you 'll wind up last, I can't wait for the stock market crash Take your status symbols, stick em up your ass, hope you go broke, then I'll laugh Take your status symbols, fill it up with gas, stick it up your nose, blow it out your ass I don't care how you spend your cash, one of these days you 'll wind up last Status symbols, you got more to lose You're status symbols, we know you're rich, we don't care, DON'T GIVE A SHIT! |
