SYZYGY

The Hanna Barbarians SYZYGY Lyrics
1.Hair Of The Dog

I woke up feeling fuzzy
I had hair of the dog
Late night through smoke and mirrors
Lord where did I go wrong?
I met a wicked little woman
She knew the ways of a witch
She started dancing around me in circles
And I started to shiver and twitch

(Chorus)
Well I'm feeling kinda funny
What'd you do
What'd you do to me honey?

She led me into the woods that night
Into a circle of stones
Started saying some kinda crazy spell
Wanted me to drink her magic potion

(Chorus)

Well I don't know if you know this baby but I've got something
for you too
Why don't you give mine a little taste then tell me what you
wanna do

Hair of the dog


2.Basement Shooter

Well beware those dark alleys and them wild back rooms
They're worth more in trouble than the fun that they'll bring ya
Well if that's the kinda mischief that you're gravitating to
There's a chance you'll spill blood and die too soon

But you wanna get high, so high

Well your momma and you daddy I bet they told you
Why don't you be a nice boy and do what we tell you to do
Well your teachers and your preachers I bet they told you too
You ain't got no business doing what we don't tell you to do

But you wanna get high, so high
High, high, high, high

When you hear that hot lead come screaming after you
That's when its hardest to remember what they told you not to do
And when you're lying there helpless blood pouring out of you
That's when its easy to remember what they told you not to do

But you wanna get high, so high
High, high, high, high


3.All We Export

All we export is cool
Oh yeah you want it, they know you do
Consumer culture has made us all fools
And they wanna sell it to you

(Chorus 1)
Do we know where the line is drawn?
Giant billboards obscuring the dawn
Plastic Jesus to which we pray
Well plastic ain't divine, it won't show us the way

All we export are pop culture tools
Manufactured and packaged and mailed direct to you
The latest add or the popular fad on MTV news
They wanna sell it to you
But are you gonna buy it?

(Chorus 2)
Do we know what the future brings?
Is this a swan song that we sing?
Great pacific garbage patch and toxic rain
Well how much more shit can this planet sustain?

All we export is war and pain
That and a few hundred million gallons of aforementioned acid
rain
This culture's twisted, its fucked in the brain
I think Uncle Sam has plum gone insane

(Chorus 1)

Plastic piled up on plastic, more and more and more
You little plastic house and your tiny plastic cubicle and all
you plastic friends
We're all gonna burn


4.You || Devil || Me

Well I'm breathing, I'm sinking, into my chair
I try to move my arms and legs but I ain't going nowhere
You know it means so much to see
You and me and the Devil between
I'm laughing, I'm drinking when I'm with you
But when I'm alone I'm just thinking about all the things I've
got to do
You know it means so much to see
You and me and the Devil between

Well I went to the office to lift this curse
I put in my time but it just made it worse
Now I'm back at the start, back at the start
Back at the start and it pulls me apart
Life's so hard but its not that hard, just to get along
