Spork Kills - Blast From The Past lyrics

rate me

VERSE 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 />
