π Lyrics
Since Elvis died and Nixon lied
We been living off Kentucky fried
Man on the moon's got nothing on us
Cause the band drove to Houston in an old school bus
Where we played too loud, knocked down the door
Breaking stuff up's what we came here for
Mama don't like it and don't understand
But you tell her that's an old time band
I got fire hosed speaking my mind in California
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans
They got the old jazz music and the Dixieland
The church choir stomping and the whole church rocking
Don't believe that the music died
Cause I heard it right here and it's well and alive
Sacred Heart Parish, sun shining bright
The Lord had mercy, I didn't even fight
I got absolution cause it works that way
Then we all went to dinner, got the Γ©touffΓ©e
I got fire hosed speaking my mind in California
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans
He got the hair shirt on with the scruffy old beard
He stares at the sky, looks pretty weird
But she broke his heart, he nearly lost his mind
Drinking that old brown turpentine
He went to the left and he went to the right
He heard a preacher man talking and he saw the light
Now he talks to God while he's chewing gum
That's where we took all the lyrics from
Little Timmy Junior put his hand in the socket
Now his hair's too long but he just keeps rocking
He left the sticks and he moved to the city
Where he got into fights, he wasn't too pretty
Yeah he lost three teeth on Bourbon Street
But he knew it was wrong, so he put it in a song
If it ends like this with confession and a kiss
When the record comes out, it'll all be bliss
There's fire on the mountain and it burns away
We'll all get together on judgment day
There'll be a barbecue and an angel band
The Mother of God and the Son of Man
Now we've been free since the day He died
So we're cutting off ties with the prince of lies
Face the music, preach the truth
It's what we came here to do
I got fire hosed speaking my mind in California
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans
We been living off Kentucky fried
Man on the moon's got nothing on us
Cause the band drove to Houston in an old school bus
Where we played too loud, knocked down the door
Breaking stuff up's what we came here for
Mama don't like it and don't understand
But you tell her that's an old time band
I got fire hosed speaking my mind in California
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
