Lawrence Arms are one of the greatest "intelli-punk" bands ever... i once read, combine
intellectual lyrics with a little lefty literature and 3 cases of the most watered down
piss beer and you have a slight taste of the LA... and it couldn't be more true.  this
entire album has the theme of "a clown here to entertain"  and a lot of the songs tie
together, if you don't have it go out and BUY it.... thats where you go to your local
record store and give them money...   yes local... if you don't have one... order the CD
from fatwreck.com  don't go to sam goody or fye or on cue or any of that sh*t... so here
we go, on with the show!

      E    E     E	      G	          C
I'm a shit stain slave with a grind of my own. 
  E			    G	          D
I work day and night, less respect than a Juggalo. 
    E			      G	            C
I'm frying on the outside and frozen in the center. 
    E			           G 		    D
I'm telling you I'm telling you to watch out for my temper. 
C
Cuz you won't like me when I'm angry. 
D
You'll see banners everywhere. 
C				              D
The street where I'm from in the town where I live is now barely even there.

  E		          G 	     C
I haven't had fun in what seems like years. 
	E			      G	             D
I had a thumbs up for you, but it was caught in the gears. 
      E			             G		   C
These tears are just onion eyes this heart is just broken. 
     E			            G		  D
This body is a break room where the burnouts are smoking.
C		          D	
This body is a break room where the burnouts are smoking.

drain.
