Dave Bidini & Dave Clark

(One, two. One, two, three, four...)

Well, all day long we beat on a drum.
We get our sound out of chewing bubble gum.
Well, they give us headlines when all we tell are jokes.
We got word they aren't very funny.

Suck in your cheeks, smile and wave.
We are the People's Republic of Dave.

We don't mess with things that are loaded or caged.
We watch TV with a God-given rage.
We don't finish until we turn the page.
I'm damn mad at you, your name is Preston Manning, so take this.

Thunder and lightning made us the same.
You'd be surprised, but the answer is plain.
Watch humans, some do, mount up and go far.
But here and others just strum their guitars.

Now, don't be offended if we stay all night and play.
It's not that we're not grateful for your hospitality.
But there's too many devils in this town who stop and cheer.
We ward them off with music and beer.
