Somehow I got spinal meningitis.
Injecting all that hairspray in my spine.
Its a super cheap way to party.
If you aim to kill some braincells and some time.
Good luck getting that child support check from me now.

My oldest son was born an albino.
My youngest covered in hair.
The middle one says he's a homosexual.
The other seven's gone, I don't where and I don't care.
I don't care.

Get your Yankee arse of my property.
Don't care if the bank gave you a deed.
This farms been Cuyler land for generations.
Since we beat back those slinky Japanese.
In the war of 1812, bring our boys home.

My dreams are all dead and buried.
Sometimes I wish the sun would just explode.
When god comes and calls me to his kingdom,
I'll take all you sons of bitches when I go!
Aaa ddeee leeeyy aaaaeee ooooo.

I gave all my best years to that woman.
All she gave me was mouths to feed.
Three miracles, straight from the loins of Jesus.
Since Charlie blew off both my testes.
1969 Cam Ranh Bay.
It was a massacre.

She run off and took our only chicken.
When I broke jail the house was burnt bare.
The Japs moved plant back to Osaka.
Some day life just don't seem that fair.
I don't even care, I'm tellin ya I just don't give a damn.

-Spencer
