The Power of Lard Songtext

von Lard

Lard
You can see it
In the clouds up in the sky

Lard
Floats by in clusters
In our water supply

Lard
It's all of us, man
In our pores and in our hair

Lard
What we conceal
In those corny clothes we wear

Lard is all
Lard is divine
Lard is in control
Lard whips and chains our soul
(Lard) We carry credit cards
(Lard) we live in fear of art
Lard is the -OM
Lard is revolution
Lard is the tapeworm
In the bottle of cheap tequila
That comes alive at night
And sneaks up and
Bites you nipple
Lard
Lard

Nowadays, most of us need someone
To run our personal life
Someone to see that the plants are watered
Someone to make sure the place is clean
Someone to make sure dinner is waiting
Someone to call for theater tickets
Someone to make up those cheap excuses

What we need is...
Lard
Lard

The answer
The dancer
The ointment
The dream
Absorb it
Inflame it
Respect it
Molest it

The country right now just wants to be soothed
And told it doesn't have to pay
Or sacrifice
Or learn
No one is over the hill
When the mountain comes to Mohammed

Lard
Lard
Lard

We love to eat
We love to pray
Mold over mind
Hooray!

Every time I take a crap
It's a cosmic experience
Religion and chemicals
Are the key to the future
Next time we have sex
Just pretend that I'm Ed Meese
The weasels have it down, man
It's a whole new age

Lard

Which would you prefer -
A computer or a gun?
The sharks outlived the dinosaurs, you know

Pity the poor trainer
In the stable when the racehorse farts
Poison oak really is
The aphrodesiac of the gods
When people are asleep
We must all become alarm clocks
Hey man, Life is my college

It's dental floss of the mind
Who will babysit the babysitters?

Ever hear about the guy in New York
Whose dick fell off in the bath
After he shot it full of coke?
It's OK to run out of butter in Zambia
Just smear squashed caterpillars on your toast
Waiter, there's a terrorist in my soup
Which came first - Max Headroom or Gerald Ford?
Are you a man or are you a mouse?
If you love your fun, die for it!

Die for it!

And feel
The power of Lard
The power of Lard
The power of Lard
The power of Lard

Avoid everything, etc...
