Is my distance from the mic proper |
|
There's a college town, with olive green all around |
|
Professors and skater punks rock SG Paul's Wall Of Sound |
|
And there's an anarchist bookstore, there's more than you'd look for |
|
A core of local folks wait for late lifts, there's often a great drift |
|
To the shop for the Wednesday night five-to-eight shift |
|
Cause the clerk at work is the prettiest gal in town, she cries during Allentown |
|
She's a precocious socialist and she's willing to prowl around |
|
She's twice as cool as the kids from her high school |
|
Every Wednesday after French club she rides to work |
|
With a stuffed Mastadon in the basket on her bicycle |
|
If Noam Chomsky was from the Bronx he'd have been assassinated promptly |
|
She said he was from the Bronx, he said you know what I mean, ignoramuses |
|
Oh boy what a pain this is, said the only paid employee, the manager |
|
I came for culture, not accounting, and a girl put a flyer up above the water fountain |
|
She carried Clandestine two dollar mescaline in her blue collar mess tin |
|
Plastered with stickers that said food not bombs, sex not proms, critical mass |
|
That bastard, voice talent snickered |
|
Nice graphics but that's just half assed agitprop to piss off a traffic cop |
|
Aww shucks, can it be I'm too lazy for pot lucks |
|
If not my friends, who am I willing to cook for |
|
And they're chilling at the anarchist bookstore |
|
Will Barnes and Noble harm the global |
|
Will Amazon Com be round when grammar's gone mom |
|
Voice talent, the rapper, had a rapport with a stripper whore |
|
Who he'd vote for long before he'd vote for Tipper Gore |
|
He re-equipped the store with the new credit machines and put zines in their places |
|
He said take back the streets is more like take back |
|
Four parking spaces at the most and left to hose the Sunday showcases |
|
He was all dressed in tinsel yo, but he couldn't convince his friends to go |
|
They were like, voice talent, you put on a minstrel show |
|
He said someone's psychotic, someone took too much semiotics |
|
Furthermore, he thought, someone can tzi-suck my tza-dick |
|
But VT was the opposite of TV, he'd never accuse someone of being PC |
|
Because it's so friggin' dumb to say, the term arose on the Columbus Day |
|
Quincentennary when the republic was honest about the conquest |
|
And wouldn't party as they had previously promised |
|
If someone uses a non-offensive vocabulary then that person is considerate, not PC |
|
If someone has a heavy-handed agenda, that person is narrow-minded, not PC |
|
Unless you mean Providence College |
|
PC is as meaningless as the president's apology for slavery |
|
Maybe P.E. should be on the radio |
|
And not just in the African-American Norton Anthology |
|
Will Barnes and Noble harm the global |
|
Will Amazon Com be round when grammar's gone mom |
|
Will Barnes and Noble harm the global |
|
Will Amazon Com be round when grammar's gone mom |
|
Who cooks for you, who cooks for you |
|
Who cooks for you all |
