Engineer (Willie's Song)
(country shuffle A C and B A)
Engineer grits his teeth and wonders
will this tunnel ever end?
Fire burning while the wheels keep turning
black smoke pours thick as blood
(C - D)
with a head full of steam
chorus: G F# E
Chugging on down those iron rails
Choking on down those coffin Nails
Chugging on through those swampy scenes
Chugging on down to New Orleans
Wind whips around wild as a coyote
as we slip into the devil's gorge
got to make it back by oh 600
hope that brakeman's on the stick
(C - D)
with a head full of steam
chorus: G F# E
Chugging on down those iron rails
Choking on down those coffin Nails
Chugging on through those swampy scenes
Chugging on down to New Orleans
Bandits ride at night
Sam keeps a shotgun close at hand
cowboy climbs up into the cab
one shot and Sam's alone again
(C - D)
with a head full of steam
chorus: G F# E
Chugging on down those iron rails
Choking on down those coffin Nails
Chugging on through those swampy scenes
Chugging on down to New Orleans

Surfin Rambler
Daddy was a surfer
Mama was a rolling stone
Everywhere we went, child,
We were left alone
Just me and my sister
Throwing rocks
And skipping stones
I said sister
Let’s go off on our own
Better off alone
Oh. They’ll treat you like a fool, little girl
It’s a cruel thing they do in the world
Treat you like a fool
And look down on you too
When you come from nowhere
That’s where you’re headed to
Daddy was a surfer
Mama was a rolling stone
And once daddy skipped town
He called us on the phone
He said your uncle died last night
He was stabbed out in Bithlo
I said Daddy who the hells my uncle joe?
Because I don’t know.
Chorus
Daddy was a surfer
Mama was a rolling stone
But Mama never liked me
Until I was fully grown
She said would you and your sister
Kindly move your asses on back home?
I said No, Mama,
We wouldn’t know where to go
We ain’t got no home
Chorus

What are you doing this afternoon?
Do you wanna come with me and fly to the moon?
I’ll be your spaceship, baby, come inside
Hold on to your hat, hold on to the ride
I know a place I want to go
I know a place in outer space
When the earth starts to blow
Blowing is much better in outer space
Mind the gap (x 4)
Until you get off
Refrain
Come see where the aliens abound
You got to come up to really get down
I love humans and I love to eat
I eat humans when I'm not in heat
Mind the gap (x4)
Until you get off

HEAD HUNTER
See those hippies hobbling
Get them emo goblins
Hit them with a slim stick
Stick them in the bottom
My hemoglobins bubblin
Get that bottom goblin
Hungry little harpies
pluck their wings like bot flies
steal their evil hare-lips
and blistered finger puppets
my knife's a rusty rail blade
dinner's in my cauldron
Bealzabubbling up (Chorus)
from the bowels of hell
Bealzabubbling up
oh yeah
Head head head Hunter
Head head Hunter (4x's)
Stoner rockers rumblin
Club them w/ a mudfish
Punks sweaty stumblin
Vicious dumb and mumblin
Crush the fishy gypsies
Stone them with my problems

Fuzzy Monster
Walking through the forest
I'm having some alone time
so I stop to smell the flowers
and look at all the little birdies
Walking through the forest
Having some alone time
sick of eating little birdies
think I see a woman
I will eat you alive
I will have you inside
I'm sitting on my blanket
cause I'm gonna have a picnic
ooh there's something sticky
sticky all around me
I'm a fuzzy monster
my teeth are sharp and shiny
I have come to eat you
and put you in my belly
I will eat you alive
I will have you inside (2x's)
Oh my god it's dark here
In my belly
I think I'm in his belly
In my belly
oh I hope those are flowers
In my belly
Oh my god that's birdies
In my belly

Penny's Blood
Inside the an-i-mal
blood pumping, coursing, hungry
I want for you to se-e
the animal inside of me
Outside the broken mirror
re-flec-tions appear
different faces different days
build the puzzle make the maze
sucking Penny's
blood
sucking Penny's
blood
Penny Dreadful on the stand
hours measured in falling sand
the dark of night ever near
smell the cold cold sense of fear
hear the footfalls cracking branches
scrape the window soft skin blanches
shadow wings trans-form-ing
knowing death is eve-ry-thing
sucking Penny's
blood
sucking Penny's
blood
Inside the an-i-mal
blood pumping, coursing, hungry
I want for you to se-e
the animal inside of me
hear the footfalls cracking branches
scrape the window soft skin blanches
shadow wings trans-form-ing
knowing death is eve-ry-thing

Kirby’s Strut
All you girls better beware
Of the guys in the guys in the tight jeans, tattoos, and shaggy hair
If he wanna play rock n roll all night long
Better let him
If he can’t make time on a Saturday night
Then forget him
Because holding onto him is like holding onto
Holding onto him is like holding onto
Holding onto him is like holding onto
Dynamite
All you girls with roving eyes
Beware of the guys in the skinny ties drinking Highlife
If he wanna talk Vonnegut all night long
Better let him
But if he can’t admit that Bukowski sucks dong
Then forget him
Because holding onto him is like holding onto
Holding onto him is like holding onto
Holding onto him is like holding onto
Dynamite
All you girls don’t you know what I mean
Don’t get pinned by the guy in his underpants
High on weed
If he wants to live at his Mama’s house
Better let him
But if he sees no reason to ever move out
Then forget him
Because holding onto him is like holding onto
Holding onto him is like holding onto
Holding onto him is like holding onto
Dynamite

in the brothels of many ports I learned of tenderness promising every filthy whore I wouldn't leave a mess captain was a fearless man he led with balls of steel
i slit his throat this morning and hung him by his heels
chorus
if I die while on the shore suffering from the pox may the gold in my teeth buy a fine pine box
but if I die while on the shore by a better man's sword I'll chase him through the gates of hell
for this I give my word if you see my mother
won't you tell her how I died pockets filled with gold coins head swollen with pride now i'm just a ghost
and this ghost haunts the sea boarding ships unseen stealing your booty
chorus
Life is Rich
I was just a stringy boy when I set out on the sea mother she was watching saw angels over me
once i learned the water's way i had no love for land turned from god and country then I became a man
chorus: oh yeah hey - on the water's way oh yeah hey - life is rich today
