Song | South Of The Border |
Artist | Beardfish |
Album | Sleeping In Traffic: Part Two |
This is the story of Gad-about-Garth | |
He was the kind of man you see in every bar | |
And old school bling-bling guy, shades on in the dark | |
“I’m here for the ladies”, he’d say: “light up my smoke” | |
Workin’ the dancefloor, he’d shake it about | |
Chains and jewellery shimmering, bling-a-ling, glimmering | |
Workin’ the females, not a butt he didn’t slap | |
Dropping one-liners, some chauvinistic crap | |
“Hey baby, have you ever been south of the border? | |
Hey sugar, what would you like for breakfast in the morning?” | |
Garth’s fellow workers at the office were fed-up | |
“I swear if he tries som’n with me I’ll smack his ass all the way back to Gooberville!” | |
Especially the ladies who felt they had enough | |
“Damn straight, uh-huh!” | |
They had arranged for him a neat little surprise | |
The yearly party at the office was the night | |
They hired some really beautiful drag queens | |
To jump out of a cake and tease around the crowd (ta-dah!) | |
Everyone was in on it but Garth who was quite drunk | |
He did his usual act, obnoxious and loud | |
He was workin’ the dancefloor, he’d shake it about | |
Chains and jewellery shimmering, bling-a-ling, glimmering | |
Workin’ the queens, not a crotch he didn’t tap | |
Dropping one-liners, some chauvinistic crap | |
“Hey baby, have you ever been south of the border? | |
Hey sugar, feel my pecker, he’s the sheriff and that’s an order | |
Hey baby, have you ever been south of the border? | |
Yo sugar, what would you like for breakfast in the morning?” | |
In the morning Garth woke up next to a beefy lady with no hair and bad breath | |
He was angry, but at the same time well, you know, he could not make himself leave just yet | |
All these feelings, what are these? Have I been Gad-about-Garth just to hide something that I am? | |
He remembered everything and felt a rush go through him as he realized he’d made love to a man! | |
In a sense he felt fulfilled as he looked back on getting high with Amanda last night (A man – duh!) | |
How could something he had always thought was filthy growing up, suddenly seem so right? | |
‘CAUSE HE WAS GAY! | |
(guitar solo: Rikard Sjöblom) | |
This was the story of the Gay-Man-Garth | |
He is the kind of man you don’t see in a bar | |
A truly pleasant guy who listens, understands | |
All women want him but he saves it for the gents |

" I' m here for the ladies", he' d say: " light up my smoke" | |
Workin' the dancefloor, he' d shake it about | |
Chains and jewellery shimmering, blingaling, glimmering | |
