Spork Kills - Blast From The Past lyrics
rate meVERSE 1<br />
<br />
Model citizen, I've never even jaywalked<br />
And if my job we're given 'em I'd never need a day off<br />
And I don't have to dream of ever being paid more<br />
My extra salary goes to charities I save for<br />
Jump in my grey Ford and raise my thumb to the police squad<br />
Make sure I come to a complete stop<br />
Head to a sockhop, showing off my excellent foxtrot<br />
I'm home before it's dark, and it's not locked<br />
And Neighborhood Watch dropped in<br />
As I caught Sullivan's show while puzzling over stock options<br />
I'm patriotic, I even used to be an Eagle Scout<br />
We put out a flag on both mine and my beagle's house<br />
I like to read about politics and jesus now<br />
God believes democracy and communism freaks me out<br />
I scream, you scream everybody scream and shout<br />
For nice, clean-cut America and being proud<br />
<br />
CHORUS<br />
<br />
And my life's a 50's movie<br />
Strangers waving to me<br />
As if they knew me...yeah<br />
I'm so liked that it's a doozy<br />
But, hey, Cool Beans, I'm just groovy!<br />
<br />
VERSE 2<br />
<br />
I was presented with the neighbour of the year award<br />
and gave it to my favourite nominee I was cheering for<br />
I'm well-adjusted and I always appear assured<br />
Cuz I've got a healthy fear of war and the dear lord<br />
I'm never near bored, I'm busy weeding my grass<br />
I've done a year's chores and didn't see the time pass<br />
I let my mind lapse, polishing a fine glass tabletop<br />
Just in case my neighbors stop at my pad<br />
I'd make a fine dad, pushing a baby carriage<br />
Never had relations with a woman I'll wait for marriage<br />
I make the average saint look like he's a vagrant from a savage place<br />
When he gets compared to my mannered ways<br />
I spend my Saturdays at the local Pantry line<br />
Cheering up the folks, standing by with my pantomime<br />
Must have touched them though, they way they wave their hands and cry<br />
Not to brag or lie, but it's safe to say they're fans of mine<br />
<br />
CHORUS<br />
<br />
And my life's a fifties movie<br />
Strangers waving to me<br />
As if they knew me...yeah<br />
I'm so liked that it's a doozy<br />
But, hey, Cool Beans, I'm just groovy!<br />
And my life's a fifties movie<br />
Strangers waving to me<br />
As if they knew me...yeah<br />
I'm so liked that it's a doozy<br />
But, hey, Cool Beans, I'm just groovy!<br />
<br />
