1.GOVERNMENT FLU

We got a drug / We're gonna try it out on you / Won't make you die / It'll getcha just a little bit sick / Chorus: Got a head cold / Got a chest cold / And it's three days old / (Goin' on forever) / Make you hazy / Make you lazy / Drive you crazy / For days and days and days and days and days / And years / Barely got the time now / To stay on the job / Double up the dosage in your water supply / Make you even sicker ‘til you're slippin' away / Getting all depressed / It's getting all your friends / You can't get it up / For nothing that'll rock the boat / The government flu / (repeat) / Slip it abroad / Keep a-slowin' down the USSR / But meanwhile we'll keep an eye / On what it's doin' to you / (Chorus) / The government flu / (repeat) / Flew… Through… You


2.TERMINAL PREPPIE

I go to college / That makes me so cool / I live in a dorm / And show off by the pool / I join the right clubs / Just to build an impression / I block out thinking / It won't get me ahead / My ambition is life / Is to look good on paper / All I want is a slot / In some big corporation / John Belushi's my hero / I lampoon and I ape him / My news of the world / Comes from Sports Illustrated / I'm proud of my trophies / Like my empty beer cans / Stacked in rows up the wall / To impress all my friends / No, I'm not here to learn / I just want to get drunk / And major in business / And be taught how to fuck / Win! Win! / I always play to win / Wanna fit in like a cog / In the faceless machine / Chorus: I'm a terminal terminal terminal preppie / terminal terminal terminal preppie / terminal terminal terminal terminal / terminal terminal terminal terminal / I want a wife with tits / Who just smiles all the time / In my centerfold world / Filled with Springsteen and wine / Some day I'll have power / Some day I'll have boats / A tract in some suburb / With Thanksgivings to host / (Chorus)


3.TRUST YOUR MECHANIC

TV invents a disease / You think you have / So you buy our drugs / And soon you depend on them / Pain is in your mind / Gotcha comin' back for more / Again and again and again and again / Gonna rip you off / Rip you off / Doctor says you need surgery now / Feelin' good ‘til the side effects / Fuck up something else / You're ensnared by the medicine man / Paying up the ass / Again and again / Gonna rip you off / Trust your mechanic to mend your car / Bring it in to his garage / He tightens and loosens a few spare parts / One thing's fixed, another falls apart / And the rich eat you / A magazine says your face don't look quite right / Unless you wear our brand new wonder creme tonight / Never look right again / Unless you grease your skin / Again and again and again and again / Gonna rip you off / Told you're depressed / So of course you see the psychiatrist / Right when you hit your neuroses' roots / He confuses you / He fucks your head up worse / Gotcha feeling helpless / You're comin' back for more / Again and again / Gonna rip you off / Rip you off / Trust your mechanic / To make you well / You're seeing an awful lot of him now / The quicker he makes your life fall apart / The more money you put in his pockets / Trust your mechanic / To plug your holes / Trust him to make more / Somewhere else / Trust your mechanic / He'll always come through / And rip you off


4.WELL PAID SCIENTIST

You're a well paid scientist / You only talk in facts / You know you're always right / ‘Cause you know how to prove it / Step by step / A PhD to show you're smart / With textbook formulas / But you're used up / Just like a factory hand / Chorus: Something is wrong here / You won't find it on a shelf / You're well paid / You're well trained / You're tied to a rack / Company cocktails - gotta go / Say the right thing / Don't fidget, jockey for position / Be polite / In the pyramid you hate / Sip that scotch / Get that raise / This ain't no party at all / (Chorus) / Cringe and tense up / Grind your teeth / and wipe your sweaty palms / Close your windows driving past / The low life company bar / They're making fun of you / AHHH / Even you / You've gotta punch the clock / Too scared to punch your boss / When will you crack / When will you crack / When will you crack / When will you open your eyes / Pull up to your sterile home / You're drained / Bite the heads off of your kids / Chew them well, they taste like you / Just slam the door / Assigned here ‘cause your company owns the land / All your colleagues live there too / Private guards in golf carts / Keep you safe at home / (Chorus) / When will you crack / (repeat) / The dark shattered underbelly / Of the American dream / Avoid it like the plague / It stares you from your bathroom mirror / Drown


5.BUZZBOMB

Buzzbomb Buzzbomb, macho-mobile / The road's my slave, that's how I feel / I cruise alone, I cruise real far / I don't love you, I love my car / ‘Cross Nevada at 110 / Highway 50 and there's nobody there / Sign says, “Next sign 30 miles” / I work all week, each penny saved / Buys more escape from home / I'd rather cruise around all day / Than save up for a move / Plow through rest area San-O-Lets / Splat! Goes the lonely salesman / Waiting in the men's room / Buzzbomb Buzzbomb, tape up loud / Blue piss clinging to my windshield / Faster faster in my car / Buzzbomb is my pride and joy / King of the trailer court / Waiting for the perfect chick / Who'll love me for my car / I tell her why I'm cool / She coos back just what I like / When I pretend she's near / Zip through Ely where Pat Nixon was born / The cops ‘round here sure looking bored / Flashing sirens - state patrol / They're scratching up my gorgeous paint job / Shooting out my tires / Ain't no way to go to heaven / Buzzbomb cornered at the 7-11


6.FOREST FIRE

No junk food, just earthly goods / I ate weird berries in the woods / Now I'm seeing colors, I'm getting higher / I think I'll start a forest fire / There's a forest fire climbing the hill / Burning wealthy California homes / Better run run run run run run / From the fire / But some of us stay and watch / And we think of your insurance costs / And we laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh / At your lives / Windows covered with bars / Security guards / Is that a house or a fortress / Against the rest of the world / Windows covered with bars / Security Guards / Is that a house or a prison / How you gonna get out / Electric bull and your tennis courts / Pink sports cars and your boats / Getting fried fried fried fried fried fried / By the fire / Windows covered with bars / Floodlights for the yard / It's a pleasure to watch you / Watch it all melt / But hey! / What about the cocaine / Stockpiled in the basement / Be a hero and save it / You know you're gonna need it / Where's your brand new pretty wife / She might still be inside / Either save her or your cocaine from the fire / But the gates and doors are locked / ‘Cause the burglar alarms went off / Ever wonder why we laugh laugh / At your lives / Windows covered with bars / Fences spiked with barbed wire / Never looked so helpless / Engulfed in flames / Cameras watchin' the walls / Don't forget the dogs / Now you're trapped in your prison / How you gonna get out / See the gerbil / Run run run run run run run run run … / (repeat) / From the fire


7.HALLOWEEN

8.WINNEBAGO WARRIOR

Roughin' it in the great outdoors / Guidebooks tell us where to go / Winnebago Warrior / Slow down traffic climbing hills / 30 gallons to the mile / Honey, quick, the Polaroid / Chorus: Winnebago Warrior / Brave as old John Wayne / Winnebago Warrior / A true yankee pioneer / Stop at Stuckey's for a meal / Blab all day on the CB / Winnebago Warrior / Littered campground, folding chairs / Feed Doritos to the bears / Honey, quick, the Polaroid / (Chorus) / Kill some fish down by the creek / Hand their picture by the sink / Show your grandson who's the boss / Tie your two tote-goats to the front / U-Haul trailer full of souvenirs / that you buy along the way / (Chorus)


9.RIOT

Rioting - the unbeatable high / Adrenaline shoots your nerves to the sky / Everyone know this town is gonna blow / And it's all gonna blow right now / Now you can smash all the windows that you want / All you really need are some friends and a rock / Throwing a brick never felt so damn good / Smash more glass / Scream with a laugh / And wallow with the crowds / Watch them kicking people's ass / But you get to the place / Where the real slavedrivers live / It's walled off by riot squad / Aiming guns right at your heads / So you turn right around / And play right into their hands / And set your own neighborhood / Burning to the ground instead / Chorus: Riot - the unbeatable high / Riot - shoots your nerves to the sky / Riot - playing into their hands / Tomorrow you're homeless / Tonight it's a blast / Get your kicks in quick / They're callin' the national guard / Now could be your only chance / To torch a police car / Climb the roof, kick the siren in / And jump and yelp for joy / Quickly - dive back in the crowd / Slip away, now don't get caught / Let's loot the spiffy Hi-Fi store / Grab as much as you can hold / Pray your full arms don't fall off / Here comes the owner with a gun / (Chorus) / The barricades spring up from nowhere / Cops in helmets line the lines / Shotguns prod into your bellies / The trigger fingers want an excuse / Now / The raging mob has lost its nerve / There's more of us but who goes first / No one dares to cross the lines / The cops know that they've won / It's all over but not quite / The pigs have just begun to fight / They club your heads, kick your teeth / Police can riot all that they please / (Chorus) / Tomorrow you're homeless / Tonight it's a blast


10.BLEED FOR ME

You've been hanging ‘round / With an enemy of the state / Come with me to the building / That no one stops to watch / Chorus: C'mon bleed / C'mon bleed / C'mon bleed / Bleed for me / We'll strap you to a pipe / Electrodes on your balls / C'mon scream / C'mon writhe / Face down in a pool of piss / (Chorus) / In the name of world peace / In the name of world profits / America pumps up our secret police / America wants fuel / To get it, it needs puppets / So what's ten million dead / If it's keeping out the Russians / We're well trained by the CIA / With yankee tax money in Ft. Bragg / The Peace Corps builds US labor camps / When they think they're building schools / Ha Ha / When cowboy Ronnie comes to town / Forks out his tongue at human rights / Sit down, enjoy our ethnic meal / Dine on some charbroiled nuns / Try a medal on / Smile at the mirror as the cameras click / And make big business happy - / Anytime / Anywhere / Maybe you'll just disappear / (Chorus)


11.I AM THE OWL

I am your plumber / No I never went away / I still bug your bedrooms / And pick up everything you say / It can be a boring job / To monitor all day your excess talk / I hear when you're drinking / And cheating on your lonely wife / I play tape recordings / Of you to my friends at night / We've got a girl in bed with you / You're on candid camera / We just un-elected you / Chorus: I am the owl / I seek out the foul / Wipe 'em away / Keep America free / For clean livin' folks like me / If you demonstrate / Against somebody we like / I'll slip on my wig / And see if I can start a riot / Transform you to an angry mob / All your leaders go to jail for my job / But we ain't the Russians / Political trials are taboo / We've got our secret / Ways of getting rid of you / Fill you full of LSD / Turn you loose on a freeway / (Chorus) / Send you spinning / Send you spinning / Send you spinning all over the freeway / Spinning on the crowded freeway / Spinning on the freeway / Spinning on the freeway / Spin / Spin / Spin - lookout! / The press, they never even cared / Why a youth leader walked into a speeding car / In ten years we'll leak the truth / By then it's only so much paper / You know, Watergate hurt / But nothing really ever changed / A teeny bit quieter / But we still play our little games / We still play our little games / (repeat) / I am the owl


12.DEAD END

Once I had a close friend / I knew him for quite a while / He seemed all right to me / We had this deal together / Tied up all my money and time / And then he went away / Taking all that was mine / Oh well, things crumble to an end / Hell, we all die in the end / Die in the end / Once it was fun to worry / About who was in control / Could look into the future / But now it don't seem right / Passion is filling the air / Profits are better than life / and things are harder to bear / It's a dead end / Dead end / Dead end / Once I had a lover / I knew her for quite a while / She seemed all right to me / But then she was gone / She took my lovin' and time / Taking all that was mine / And leaving me far behind / It's a dead end / Dead end / Dead end


13.MOON OVER MARIN

The crowded future stings my eyes / I still find time to exercise / In uniform with two white stripes / Unlock my section of the sand / It's fenced off to the water's edge / I clamp a gas mask on my head / On my beach at night / Bathe in my moonlight / Another tanker's hit the rocks / Abandoned to spill out its guts / The sand is laced with sticky glops / O'shimmering moonlight sheen upon / The waves and water clogged with oil / White gases steam up from the soil / On my beach at night / Bathe in my moonlight / I squish dead fish between my toes / Try not to step on any bones / I turn around and I go home / I slip back through my basement door / Switch off all that I own below / Dive in my scalding wooden tub / My own beach at night / Bathe in my moonlight / There will always be a moon / Over Marin

There, wasn't that a nice visit? Don't forget, a psychiatrist is on-duty 24 hours a day in the blue room, just up from the parking garage. Drink plenty of water when you take these. Now you can relax and return to your job
