Tekst piosenki
I’m Palm Palm head – and I wrote one good song – But that was almost 20 years ago – I tried and I tried to follow it up – But you know how those sophomore jinxes go – So I became quite bitter – as sales dropped like flies – No one likes these dumb songs – of racing cars and spies – Maybe it’s my ape drape – or hippies in my band – But now we only tour in Arizona – or Japan – So after much thought – and a panel of experts – I came up with a brilliant little plan – I’ll take out my frustrations – on one of these ungrateful new punk rock bands – cause I invented socks – and I invented gravy – I made up the cotton gin – but no one ever paid me – Why beat a dead horse – with a career that is cursed? – I’ll just sue for royalties – on things I thought of first – Back in Ancient Egypt – many Pharaohs went to jail – for misappropriation – of my Phrigian scale – I said listen to Tutankhamen – you’re driving me insane – it’s obvious those bellies – are all dancing to Bloodstains – I figured out you owe me – and please try not to laugh – but every time I hear it – I get one more golden calf – So I’ve bitten off – a sizable chunk – of the hands of the people – with the food – Now I’m confined to the pages of Flipside – a graveyard of punk rock’s 35 year old dudes – cause I invented socks – and I invented gravy – I made up the cotton gin – but no one ever paid me – Why beat a dead horse – with a career that is cursed? – I’ll just sue for royalties – on things I thought of first – Palm Palm! – Palm Palm! – Palm Palm! – Ape Drape! – Ape Drape! – Poodle Head! – Poodle Head!
