Get Back In The Van

The Presidents Of The United States Of America Get Back In The Van Lyrics
1.Lump

Lyricist:Christopher Weldo Ballew, David Michael Dederer, Jason S Finn

Lump sat alone in a boggy marsh
Totally emotionless, except for her heart
Mud flowed up into Lump's pajamas
She totally confused all the passing piranhas

She's Lump, she's Lump
She's in my head
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump
She might be dead

Lump lingered last in line for brains
And the one she got was sort of rotten and insane
Small things so sad that birds could land
Is Lump fast asleep or rockin' out with the band?

She's Lump, she's Lump
She's in my head
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump
She might be dead

Lump was limp and lonely and needed a shove
Lump slipped on a kiss and tumbled into love
She spent her twenties between the sheets
Life limped along at sub-sonic speeds

She's Lump, she's Lump
She's in my head
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump
She might be dead

Is this Lump out of my head?
I think so
Is this Lump out of my head?
I think so
Is this Lump out of my head?
I think so
Is this Lump out of my head?


2.Peaches

Lyricist:Christopher Weldo Ballew, David Michael Dederer, Jason S Finn

Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat me a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches

Peaches come from a can
They were put there by a man
In a factory downtown
If I had my little way
I'd eat peaches every day
Sun-soakin' bulges in the shade

Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches

Take a little naps where the roots all twist
Squished a rotten peach in my fist
And dreamed about you, woman
I poked my finger down inside
Make a little room for it to hide
Nature's candy in my hand or can or a pie

Millions of peaches, peaches for me
Millions of peaches, peaches for free
Millions of peaches, peaches for me
Millions of peaches, peaches for free
Look out

Millions of peaches, peaches for me
Millions of peaches, peaches for free
Millions of peaches, peaches for me
Millions of peaches, peaches for free
Look out


3.Back Porch

Lyricist:Chris Ballew, Dave Dederer, Jason Finn

Happy with no teeth
Happy here in hibernation
Slurpin' on a peach
Starin' at the situation

Kitty on my foot
Meowin' out a conversation
Rockin' back and forth
That's my only destination

Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that old man is me

Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that

Got a two string on my lap
Total subsonic vacation
Got chicken on the drums
Poundin' out a perfect prescription

Got twenty little worms
I'll plug in some amplification
Got fifteen hundred base drum luggin' bug-eyed monkeys
All arriving at the station

Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that old man is me

Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that

I'm sittin on the back porch, kickin' my legs back
Rockin' in my rocking chair, sittin' there
On a little back porch is about to fall apart
So I think I might repair it

Just as I'm thinkin' about repairin' it
Some little friends come along
With some two string, one string, no string guitars
And they all plug 'em all in to the back porch

And they sit around playin' all their favorite songs
They kickin' back feelin' real good
Real fine, real full of the wine
And everything's fine, everything's beautiful
Everything's great, I just feel so good
You know I'm seventy years old
And I'm slurpin' everything through a straw, but I'm an

Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that old man is me

Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that


4.Dune Buggy

Lyricist:Christopher Weldo Ballew, David Michael Dederer, Jason S Finn

A little blind spider took the wheel
Navigatin' grass blades completely by feel
Got a sassy chassis, sparklin' in the sun
All four small bald fat tires
Rockin' through the sand and burnin' up

Little dune buggy in the sand
Little blue dune buggy in my hand

I got a rubber band motor hummin' on a beach, ready for fun
Quit spinnin' and webbin', come out play in the sun
Eight thimble sized cylinders, be as smooth as you please
Spider's bad ass fat old abdomen stuck in the buggy seat

Little dune buggy in the sand
Little blue dune buggy in my hand

Squishy transmission was caught in drive
Spider man was squinting at the sand in the sky
Spider woman in the front seat, screamin' go, go, go,
He's ridin' the accelerator down to the floor with his fuzzy
little toe

Little dune buggy in the sand
Little blue dune buggy in my hand

Little dune buggy
Little dune buggy
Little dune buggy
...


5.Kitty

Lyricist:Christopher Weldo Ballew, David Michael Dederer, Jason S Finn

Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow

Little bag of bones been out all night
Little bag of bones been out all night
Can you hear him scratchin' at the screen door?
Can you hear him scratchin' at the screen door?
Little bag of bones been out all night

He needs some pettin' and lovin' on his head
He needs some pettin' and lovin' on his rain-soaked hide
He's circlin' round my ankle, he's circlin' round my ankle
He needs some pettin' and lovin' on his hide
Kitty, won't you come inside?

Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it

Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I want to touch it

Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow

Pussy purrin' and lookin' so satisfied
Pussy purrin' and lookin' so satisfied
I'm lost in his little yellow round eye
Lost in his little yellow round eye
Pussy purrin' and lookin' so satisfied

Kitty rear up and scratch me through my jeans
Kitty rear up and scratch me through my jeans
Fuck you kitty, you're gonna spend the night
Fuck you kitty, you're gonna spend the night
Fuck you kitty, you're gonna spend the night outside!

Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it

Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I wanna touch it
Kitty on my foot and I want to touch it

Touch it! I wanna touch it
I wanna touch it, I wanna touch it
Wanna touch it, wanna touch it
I wanna touch it, yeah touch it

Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty
Touch it
Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty
Touch it
Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty
Touch it
Kitty on my foot and I want to touch it


6.Mixed Up S.O.B.

Lyricist:Christopher Weldon Ballew

You think she took me for a ride
She held it all, way up inside
She held her breath and turned her face all red
That's how they found her in her bed, all dead
And this is what I said

'She's a mixed up son of a bitch,' yeah, yeah
She's a mixed up son of a bitch, yeah, yeah
Airball punchline, delivered with a twist
And she's a mixed up son of a bitch

You think she had me in a cage
Like a bird on fire, she flew into a rage
Her eyes are permanently crossed
Once you won her, you could swear
She make you feel like you already lost

Because she's a mixed up son of a bitch, yeah, yeah
She's a mixed up son of a bitch, yeah, yeah
Airball punchline, delivered with a twist
And she's a mixed up son of a bitch

Go, go, go

A desperate living so divine
A sugar cube empire could be all mine
She's stuck in gear, it's just too bad it's reverse
You say I've seen bad well, I've seen worse

See the TV glowing, uh, life is waking by
Hear the music flowing, uh, life is waking by
See the loving tree growing, uh, life is walking by
An empty boat starts rowing
That's when you're knowing life is walking you by
Life is walking you by

I could never tell you the truth about her
'Cause she's so mixed up
I could never tell you the truth about her
'Cause she's so mixed up

I could never tell you the truth about her
'Cause she's so mixed up
She's a mixed up son of a bitch
She's a mixed up son of a bitch


7.Feather Pluckn

Lyricist:Christopher Weldo Ballew, David Michael Dederer, Jason S Finn

A billions of birdies squawking out loud
Talking in code to clams in the clouds
They send a secret message, they send it by worm
Some vibrating spiders will receive the word

But that's totally
Feather plucking insane
Ten million monkeys all pick up guitars
Nobody taught them how
Five thousand fishes rocking really, really, really hard
Nobody taught them how
Check out chicken driving Vinny's little blue car
Nobody taught them how

Flies like to fly 'cause they don't like to stay
They're buzzing in the ears of a chicken all day
Chicken understand and they pick out the code
Send a sub-sonic signal through the snot in the middle
Of an elephant's long wet cold gray nose

But that's totally
Feather plucking insane
Ten million monkeys all pick up guitars
Nobody taught them how
Five thousand froggies rocking really, really, really hard
Nobody taught them how
Check out chicken driving Vinny's little blue car
Nobody taught them how

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Okay, okay
Everybody's supernova
Everybody's supernova
Everybody's supernova
...


8.Ladybug

Lyricist:Christopher Weldon Ballew

Ladybug, ladybug, poke your head out of the rug
And you come see me and bring your jug
'Cause when you come see me
That's when you get your good love

Down below, fuzzy lawn
There's some romance going on
You been stepping 'round with a beetle named John
I can tell you 'cause you got your little long dress on

Boll weevil living in the flower, cold tuxedo in the shower
Gonna cross the room in about an hour
Maggot do a dance in the meat when the meat go sour
Maggot do a dance in the meat when the meat go sour
Come on, come on

Centipede, centipede, hit the disco, half past three
Gonna crack that spine, party in a pine tree
The DJ's grooving and you're moving
To a broken beat

Dragonfly, dragonfly, stuck at that truck
Stop, you can't fly
You got mud on your wing, clouds in the sky
You're pretty unlucky that we did happen by

Troglodyte, troglodyte
Didn't make it to the party on Saturday night
Well, we waited up late and we left on the light

We're hoping that you won't keep moping
But we think you might
Yeah, we're hoping that you won't keep moping
But we think you might

Ladybug, ladybug, poke your head out of the rug
And come see me and bring your jug
'Cause when you come see me
That's when you get your good love

When you come see me
That's when you get your good love
When you come see me
That's when you get your good love

When you come see me
That's when you get your good love
When you come see me
That's when you get your good love

When you come see me
That's when you get your good love
Now, good love, you are my ladybug now
Good love, you are my ladybug now
Good love, you are my ladybug now
Good love


9.Jennifer's Jacket

And she's got safety pins and string holding it together
She can only wear her jacket in warm weather
Although the sleeves need to be shortened
The fact that the arms are falling off isn't important

(Because) Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's
jacket,
Is falling apart
Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket,
Is falling apart

The lining in her coat is rotten
And it seems that the zipper has been completely forgotten
She had a dollar ten for a slice in the pocket of the right
But the pocket had a hole and she looked for the change all
night

Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket,
Is falling apart
Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket,
Is falling apart

This is a list of malformations
But it would cost one hundred dollars for alterations
We all know that the pressed leather is in
But you can't keep warm in the winter in December in the city
when it's 32 degrees below zero
with a safety pin!

Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket,
Is falling apart
Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket,
Is falling apart
Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket,
Is falling apart
Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket, Jennifer's jacket,
Falling apart at the seams!
Falling apart at the seams!
Falling apart at the seams!
Falling apart at the seams! (Jennifer's jacket is)
Falling apart at the seams! (Jennifer's jacket is)
Falling apart at the seams! (Jennifer's jacket is)
Falling apart at the seams! (Jennifer's jacket is)
Falling apart at the seams, yeah!
