Unhappy Clowns

lyrics

UNHAPPY CLOWNS
Alarm bangs out dream destroyin’ tones
Gotta get up, tired to the bone
Know what’s comin’, wanna stay in bed
Gotta go slave with a mind full of dread
Put on my pants one leg at a time
Ain’t no faster way
Crisp, clean shirt, each arm in a sleeve
Can’t go faster, movin’ like molasses
Tie my shoes with a mighty fine shine
Look at the mess in the mirror
No time to shave, no time to brush
Runnin’ way late in too slow a rush
Out the door, a real slow rocket
Grab my keys outta my pocket
Fire up my ride, hear the engine whine
Pop it in gear, hear the tranny grind
Tires smokin’, I give it the gas
Cop stops me, wants me kissin’ his ass
I done the dirty deed, no doubt about it
Want my dignity, but the man won’t allow it
Cop keeps me there quite a while
Screams at me, spittin’ out bile
“You shamed your whole family and the human race.”
He’s spittin’ on me as he works up his rage
“What’s wrong with you boy, where’s the fire?
You’re a criminal, need burned with a hot iron.
Got no respect for authority.
Get outta here, ‘fore I nail ya to a tree.”
“You will fear my authority.
If you don’t, I’ll smack ya to yer knees.
You takin’ the rap just ain’t enough.
Abusin’ authority make’s me tough.”
Give it up you unhappy clown
Let me alone, stop bringin’ me down
All I want is my dignity
Bein’ the man… don’t give you the right… to take it from me
Held up by the cop, no place to park
Gotta see the boss, get a big black mark
I get inside, coffee and a smile
Secretary says boss waitin’ a while
It’s a trap, no way to escape
An unhappy clown is lyin’ in wait
Brace myself for a big ordeal
Dumb as a post, sees himself a big wheel
Boss sittin’, smilin’ at my pain
I excuse myself, try to explain
He ain’t buyin’ it, tells me I’m lame
Eyes drillin’ me, this ain’t no game
“Know why yer here? Yer late for the bell.”
Big wheel’s boilin’, gonna send me to hell
“Gonna cut your pay, you’re my slave.
You’re gonna be late for your own grave.
Better fear me, and that ain’t all.
Better kiss ass or I’ll have your balls”
“You will fear my authority.
If you don’t, I’ll smack ya to yer knees.
You takin’ the rap just ain’t enough.
Abusin’ authority make’s me tough.”
Give it up you unhappy clown
Let me alone, stop bringin’ me down
All I want is my dignity
Bein’ the man… don’t give you the right… to take it from me
“Gonna nail ya on a cross ‘cause I’m the man.
Gonna crush your mind just ‘cause I can.
Got no soul, got a mean, mean smile.
Kiss my ass and do it with style”
“I’m authority… and you better fear me.”
No sex, no drugs, no rock ‘n’ roll
Way too busy puttin’ people in a hole
Real unhappy ‘till they smash good things
No satisfaction ‘till they make a man scream
“I’m authority and you better fear me”
Too tight asses, too tight face
Right on the edge of the human race
Hear good jokes with a poker face
Knuckle draggin’ bastards, always in a rage
“I’m authority… and you better fear me.”
Always laugh at the pain of others
Got no love even for their own mothers
Turned down mouth, muscular frown
Get in their sights, they’ll gun you down
They get a scratch, it’s the end of the world
I lose a leg, it’s no big deal
Biggest whiners when they get caught
Blame everybody for their own damn faults
“I’m authority… and you better fear me.”
What is wrong with these unhappy clowns?
Get their rocks off grindin’ me down
Humiliation is all they know
Authority makes their self-hate grow
“I’m authority… and you better fear me.”
Feel so small ‘till they beat me down
Get ten feet tall crushin’ happy clowns
Gotta melt my soul everyday
Unhappy clowns can’t see another way
Keep it up, go right ahead
One a these days yer gonna be dead
Had one chance, ya shoulda done right
You won’t care ‘till the hell fire lights
Satan’s a waitin’, clappin’ hooves with glee
Unhappy clowns will get a real treat
A dose of medicine all their own
Hear them whine, flesh burnin’ off bone
“You will fear my authority.
If you don’t, I’ll smack ya to yer knees.
You takin’ the rap just ain’t enough.
Abusin’ authority make’s me tough.”
Give it up you unhappy clown
Let me alone, stop bringin’ me down
All I want is my dignity
Bein’ the man… don’t give you the right… to take it from me
