STYREEN MO' BETTA

Styreen Mo’Betta
Styreen Mo’Betta
Like a flesh umbrella
Styreen Mo’Betta
She’d lubricate my wishes while she’d mow the lawn
She’d change my auto dishes when they’re spiked and worn
My Styreen Mo’Betta
Styreen Mo’Betta
She’s my own bordella
Styreeeeeeeen Mo’Betta
Insulates the ceiling while she feeds me chills
Hand controls my thermos while she pays the bills
She don’t need jewel-ray
She’s not like Aingell
She don’t want mon-nay
She just wants the Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese that I own
Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese
Blue Cheese not on loan
Loan
Moan...Moan...Moan...
Mooooooooooooooan Ahh!
(fantasy in the shed section plays here)
Styreen Mo’Betta
Styreen Mo’Betta
Like a flesh umbrella
Styreeeeen Mo’Betta
She’s always there to tell me how she loves me so
I’m always there to tell her where the lawn bag goes
She don’t want mon-nay
She don’t need jewl-ray
She wants to please me!
Crumply old hen peck of a mother screeches:
“Stop the day dreaming and cut the goddamn lawn, you loaf!”

AW DO I, AW DO I

Aw do I - Aw do I have to cut the grass ma? It makes so much noise
Aw do I - Aw do I have to cut the grass ma? It makes so much noise
The grass is too wet - My sneakers turn green
They’ll be rock in my eye - And frog on my jeeeeeeeeans!
Aw do I - Aw do I have to cut the grass ma? It makes so much noise
Aw do I - Aw do I have to cut the grass ma? It makes so much noise
K a i - h e a l l y ! ! !
I’m looking out for hoses
Hoses always tie themselves in pieces (discreetly)
Aw do I - Aw do I have to cut the grass ma? It makes so much noise
Aw do I - Aw do I have to cut the grass ma? It makes so much noise
You know there’s nothing wrong with mowin’
It’s just the blade keeps blowin’ dust up my nose
And when I cough my foot gets pruned
So call a lawn doctor specialist to hep ya with the bag assist
Lawn doctor specialist to hep ya with the bag assist etc.
She’s a real lawn getter.. Thick grass the better
S H U T T H E H E L L U P !

I'M LOSING MY HEAD

I’m losing my head - I’m losing my head
The blow dryer’s on now the fishes are dead
And I’m losing my head - I’m losing my head
The “guvner” is adjusted now i’m drawing in lead
‘Cause “Aingell”, it’s more fun to get to ride
“Aingell”, if you knew how much I lied..
You would go for my bags
Go for my bags
Slice through the middle till the clippings would drag
Go for my bags - Go for my bags
Mulch up the chicks that hoard and snagged
With your wheels - Nancy remembers well
With your wheels - Nancy was cheap to sell to the boys down “Toros
Motor Fix” with their oil cans and their “bill-boy” sticks
You know she lost it the day you said:
You’d have me first on the sprinkler bed
I stole your wheels now you’ll have my head
Some say you’ll have my head!!!
I’m losing my head - I’m losing my head
The blow dryer’s on now the fishes are dead
And I’m losing my head - I’m losing my head
The “guvner” is adjusted now i’m drawing in lead
‘Cause “Ainjell”,I remember well
“Ainjell”, well you can go to hell!!!!!!
