Hur man gör en sönderspelad låt kul igen


Lyrics

Now and then we like to play one guitar together.
And that’s convenient since we only have the one
Tony sold our other instruments to pay some gangsters but he’s still in debt
And if they catch him he will surely be dismembered

Tony is addicted to a wide array of narcotics
He says that they help him write, but we’re a cover band
I’m not sure why we keep him in the band
Maybe it’s because he drives the van
The rest of us can only drive an automatic

This used to be just my guitar
Now Dave is bangin on it like he’s f*cking Tito Puente
We all look sad because we're starved
Tonight for dinner we’re splitting a candy bar

We are the poorest band in the world
We have to act like we’re camping but we’re really homeless
And I don’t even own this voice

We had to borrow it from Peter Gabriel
Don’t you know you gotta Shock The Monkey
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill

Sledgehammer
Oompa loompa doompadee doo
My feet are cold cause Tony sold my shoes

I don't think that we should blame our problems all on Tony
Tony is not the only dead beat in this band
I don’t wanna name any names
But Derek, Timothy and Dave each have fooled around with me
I threw up this morning, now I’m gonna have a band baby

You could have mentioned that before
(Ahhhhhhhhhhhh)
How could be afford to put a kid through kindergarten
(Ahhhhhhhhhhhh)
Hey guys where did Tony go?
You all know that Tony can’t be left alone
And now he’s got the camera
If he sells it then we will officially have nothing
There is nothing Tony can’t destroy

But no one else knows how to do the plinky noise
(The clinky noise)
We need Tony!
(To do the clinky noise)
Somebody get Tony!
(He does the clinky noise)
And send us some money 
(For the clinky noise)
My stomach feels funny

The Key of Awesome
