| Album | Go-Go Boots |
| You buy me dinner when | |
| I'm in town | |
| Talk about records that you know | |
| Lay the friendship card upon me and out the door | |
| Somebody said we hurt your feelings with our little dirty jokes | |
| Then you accused us of stealing back our soul | |
| Then you say that we're the assholes | |
| Cause we bitched about the hassles | |
| While you're sleeping in your castles | |
| And we're still riding down the road | |
| I hear you're all offended by the letters that | |
| I wrote It's just a shame it hadn't ended long ago | |
| Then you sicked your lawyers on me | |
| Told them to go for the throat | |
| And you just sat back and watched them have a go | |
| Then you say that we're the assholes… | |
| But I never would deny we have our share of the blame to absorb | |
| But when you say that you're the reason for the things that we've achieved | |
| I want to kick down your door | |
| You like to say that we're the assholes | |
| As if we somehow done you wrong | |
| We just do what we have to, to carry on | |
| I'm sure you'll find another asshole | |
| To replace us for a song | |
| You'll keep your office and expense account and we'll keep traveling along | |
| When you say that we're all assholes | |
| Guess it'd be useless to deny | |
| I'm just saying you're the reason why |
| You buy me dinner when | |
| I' m in town | |
| Talk about records that you know | |
| Lay the friendship card upon me and out the door | |
| Somebody said we hurt your feelings with our little dirty jokes | |
| Then you accused us of stealing back our soul | |

| Cause we bitched about the hassles | |
| While you' re sleeping in your castles | |
| And we' re still riding down the road | |
| I hear you' re all offended by the letters that | |
| I wrote It' s just a shame it hadn' t ended long ago | |
| Then you sicked your lawyers on me | |
| Told them to go for the throat | |

| Then you say that we' re the assholes | |
