We’re not really “in”
My Member’s Only jacket
Makes hip people cry.
Makes hip people cry?
Hip people? Who uses that
Outdated lingo?
Outdated lingo:
I can dig it, daddy-o,
'cause I’m the bee’s knees.
'Cause I’m the bee’s knees
Will she let me cop a feel?
Peace, brother. Hang loose.
Peace, bother hang loose.
I am putty in your hand
between the whispers.
Between the whispers
Are the screams of utter joy
Pure, sheer ecstacy
Pure, sheer ecstasy,
The wild drone of paperwork
on Monday morning.
on Monday morning

not a bit… maybe.
not a bit…maybe
The “might maybes” of the world
I really hate them.
I really hate them
Cowboys! “America’s Team”?
Ha! They are felons!
Ha! They are felons!
No! They didn’t do it and
you can’t prove they did.
You can’t prove they did!
And I can’t prove they didn’t!

Just ain’t workin’ out
The gym fees are way too high
And I am lazy
And I am lazy,
lustful, gluttonous, and proud,
but I’m sober. Wah!
But I’m sober! WAH!
To be unencumbered, free
My life’s now my own!
My life’s now my own
prison, desolate I yearn
for the good old days.
