1. _ Call Box (1-2-3)
I press the buttons now
Voice keeps poppin' on the call box out
Mop-man, do you receive?
Ten-four, i gotta pull out
I got an eta, five-thirty on the dot
A little bit later, it'll thicken the plot
Chorus:
They always tell me what's not is not
I just gotta get that 1-2-3
It's funny how these things always happen to me
I just gotta get that 1-2-3
Now, by the force of circumstance
And by the belt that holds up my pants
I'm held responsible
For this idea that never had a chance
When they call out the guard tonight
He'll cut the alarm and switch off the light
Chorus:
I get a funny feeling that wrong is right
I just gotta get that 1-2-3
It's funny how these things always happen to me
I just gotta get that 1-2-3
1 2 3
A b c
Like you and me
Like 1 2 3
1 2 3
1-2-3
A b c
1-2-3
1 2 3
1-2-3
It's a combination...
I press the buttons nowwww!
I press the buttons now
Voice keeps poppin' on the call box out
Mop-man, do you receive?
Ten-four, i gotta pull out
I got an eta, five-thirty on the dot
A little bit later, it'll thicken the plot
Chorus:
They always tell me what's not is not
I just gotta get that 1-2-3
It's funny how these things always happen to me
I guess i gotta get that 1-2-3
1 2 3
A b c
Like you and me
Like 1 2 3
Not is not, not is not!
Not is not, not is not...

2. _ Back In Flesh
Someone smashed my alarm
It's got me on the edge
You know it's so sharp
(aaaaaaaa...)
And you know i won't go
You know i won't go
I don't wanna go
(he won't go)
The corporation's boiling over
Everybody's taking over
Chorus:
And i'm back in flesh
Back in flesh
Back in flesh
Back in flesh
Back in flesh
You better sign your time card now
They don't care about you anyhow
Sign in, your minimum cut
You're late again, your salary's cut!
Someone smashed my alarm
It's got me on the edge
You know it's so sharp
(aaaaaaaa...)
And you know i won't go
You know i won't go
I don't wanna go
(he won't go)
The corporation's boiling over
Everybody's taking over
Chorus repeat
I won't go
(he won't go.)
I don't wanna go
(you must go!)
Is it time to go?
(the orders are in!)
Well, i'd rather go bowling!
(the lanes are closed!)
Maybe a little tennis?
(your racket's got a hole.)
How about some baseball?
(field's rained out.)
Maybe a little fishing?
(the fish are on vacation.)
Well, how about some golfing?
(the greens are overgrown.)
Well, what about some swimming?
(i don't think so!)
Well, what about this |
3. _ This Way Out
Who's got a hand on the crackdown?
Who's got the word on the double talk?
Hands on the wheel in a flash of steel
We got a secret letter with a government seal
And a ticket for a doomsday run
We're goin' on a doomsday run
Ticket for a doomsday run
Bombs away
Chorus:
Gotta ticket for a doomsday run
We're goin' on a doomsday run
Ticket for a doomsday run
I never get it wrong
Uh-oh, get it right!
Nerves are pinched but the heads are calm
The cargo's all loaded and the red light's on
Check the map, you navigator sap
Or we'll all end up with our heads in our laps
Chorus repeat x2
Who's in charge? better ask the sarge
If ya wanna go there
He's got the word on the double-talk
If you run, well, you better walk
This way out
This way out
This way out
This way out

4. _ Red Light
If it's the rough stuff ya want
You can point yer finger at me
'cause i can dish it out good
But i don't give it away for free
There's a price for my vice
And i want it in cash
In a plain brown bag
You can put it out by the trash
Chorus:
There'll be a red light by the window
And a blue light by the car
He'll be running
But he won't get far
There'll be a red light by the window
And a blue light by the car
He'll be running
But he won't get far
This modern world deserves a
Modern attitude
You've gotta stick it to them
Before they stick it to you
I want the money
And i want it in cash
In a plain brown bag
You can put it out, put it out, put it out by the trash
Chorus repeat
Red light
Blue light
Red light
Blue light
This modern world deserves a modern attitude

5. _ Me And My Dad
Me and my dad
We've got a good thing going
Fishing trips, the hard way's the best
Man-to-man talks, when the going gets tough
The tough get going
Follow me, son
I'll guide you the right way
Fix my car when the engine falls apart
Show me where the piston goes
Can you get this thing to start?
Father talks big business with authority
He's the big boss, he knows the levels of consistency
Father knows how to read his morning paper
Tellin' me how he died to live, workin' hard labor
Chorus:
Me and my dad
Me and my dad
Me and my dad
We've got a good thing going
Father talks big business with authority
He's the big boss, he knows the levels of consistency
Father knows how to read his morning paper
He's tellin' me how he died to live, workin' hard labor
Chorus repeat until fade

6. _ Tse Tse Fly
I was walking through the jungle, and i
Was looking for good business
Something to take away the risk
Break or bust or call it quits
See an object in the air
See an object touch my hair
I was walking through the jungle, and i
Was looking for good business
My energy is draining
Touching down on my arm
I'm feeling kinda sleepy now
Chorus:
I was bitten by a tse-tse fly
I was bitten by a tse-tse fly
I was walking through the jungle, and i
Was looking for good business
Gotta invest in insect bombs
No-pest strips and firearms
On the tickertape came the note
"tse-tse fly: no antidote"
I was walking through the jungle, and i
Was looking for good business
My energy is draining
Touching down on my arm
I'm feeling kinda sleepy now
Chorus repeat x2
Swat that fly!

7. _ Animal Day
Grandma is a rhino
My brother is a dog
I can tell it's animal day
'cause my best friend just turned into a frog
Mommy is a monkey
My girlfriend is a horse
But i'm not turning into anything |
8. _ Good Times
Night, the city
Its dark and lonely streets
Rain falls on my face
Mixed with salty tears
Confirm your happiness
Everything is looking good
Look down, feel the pain
Falling teardrops to the ground
Chorus:
Think back through the phrases
Restore sanity to the mind
You know she's gone now
Are these not the good times?
Good times, good times
Believe in them pretty soon
When i'm over the pain of missing you
Good times, good times
Arrivin' just as soon as
The flames extinguish the memories that i knew
Thinking these old things
Had worked out fine
When i knew it'd hurt you
If you knew you were hurting me
Day breaks, clouds move
And the sun comes through the rain
But for now i'm livin' back
In the stormy night
Chorus:
I gotta think back through the phrases
Restore sanity to the mind
You know she's gone now
Are these not the good times?
Think back through the phrases
Restore sanity to the mind
You know she's gone now
Are these not the good times?
Good times? good times?
Good times, good times
Believe in them pretty soon
When i'm over the pain of missing you
Good times, good times
Arrivin' just as soon as
The flames extinguish the memories that i knew

9. _ Full Of Tension
There's something pulling on my sleeve
Full of tension
There's something breathing down my neck
Full of tension
Now if you wanna take it to the hilt
You can take it 'til you tilt
Something pulling on my sleeve
Full of tension
Watchin' out my window at the people in the street
I try to keep it quiet
|
10. _ Crack The Bell
{spoken:} thanks a lot, thanks a whole lot.
Lulu sends her friends
They cover the mouths with one hand
Well, i keep waiting here
Drifting around in a dark land
And the lone hunter
« i push the staff and stick it »
Chorus:
And i know there's a bell to crack
And i know there's a bell to crack
Well, i hear crosstalk now
Coming through the wire
One voice tells me yes
The other is a liar
Chorus:
And i know there's a bell to crack
I know there's gotta be one more bell to crack
« click-clack, joint, » this thing is on my sleeve
All this mess around and i gotta clean it up
Okay, mister questions, you tell me, when are we gonna leave?
And can you design a heart |
11. _ Two Minutes Till Lunch
I was standing in line, i was biding my time
I was watchin' a clock on the wall
And it was two minutes till lunch, so i got good and ready
Just then i heard the telephone call
It was she, she told me not to worry
She told me "take life a little more in stride
Remember the books i bought-cha, bought-cha" |
