Back when I was a caveman swinging through the treetops I'd hop on my pterydactyl or climb on Triceratops then maybe jump in the Cadillac '62,000 BC I kept my clubs in a golf bag on the passenger seat right next to me Back when I was a caveman I picked up girls by the hair hit on the ladies at the club, maybe use my club to spare back to my stone apartment I never fought underwear but the sabertooth tiger futon it always gave 'em a scare! Back when I was a caveman I cut my feet on the rocks I burned 'em up on the pavement cuz only pussies wore socks God forbid with their sandals or prehistoric Crocs but we all wore motorcycle helmets cuz of Dinosaur Cox (tm) swingin' Jeffrey Dinosaur Cox on the bass guitar Mr. Zachary Adams spanks the plank over there I'm Austin Cliffe bangin' on these skins tell ya bout a time much closer to the time around when time began back when I was a caveman oh, yes, I was a caveman card carryin' Caveman Local 242 Union Member amen

Bumblebee 02:43
How do you know when you've seen your very last bumblebee? And how do you know when you've heard The song of the last flying bird? Will it really very truly be the last? You'll only know it if it bites you in the ass. Can you hear me if i adjust what I say Lucky you to be the one to live to rue the day And how do you know when you've seen your very last great machine? The song of the last of the absurd? Za za za How do you know when you've seen your very last bumblebee? And how do you know when you've heard The song of the last dying bird?

Everyday 03:46
One Two Three You know that every single day I die and first thing in the middle of the night I'm mummified And first thing in the morning I'm in the ground and in the early evenings, that's when I am born. And angels, I have seen them in the sky And devils, I have seen them in the day And one of each, I have seen them in your eyes And the rest, well, I have seen them up your skirt And every single day I die And in the middle of the night, let's just say I'm wrapped up First thing in the morning, I'm in the ground In the early evenings, that's when I get down And angels, I have seen them in the sky And devils, I have seen them dancing with angels in the dirt and I saw you there and I've been there, too I get a fucked up feeling when I look you in the eye, I think you need to find a new line of work.

Equation 05:09

Spaceman 08:10
The printers were going crazy that night, the satellite dishes were on it like a pack of dogs. Don't know what it was in that starless night sky, just what it was that they saw. The men in suits, they came real quick they must have come from somewhere nearby. They took the equipment, right down to the phones. I was handcuffed and then punched in the jaw. Don't know what government agency that they represented but what they did that night, it was against the law! They said it was a routine military test, but tell that to the family out on Highway 2. What exactly was a military blacktop crew doing out there on a state road in the middle of the night? Those files have been sealed, wrapped up, in black tape, buried in an office five stories underground.

Rail Bourbon 03:10
Billy comes in bellies up to the bar and it's curtains. His hair ain't in place, the look on his face, oh it's certain.... he's hurtin'... he's hurtin'... oh gimme some of that there rail bourbon. He usually orders Ale 8 One and Wild Turkey, he says they're both the finest they make in Kentucky. Rail bourbon, that rail bourbon, gimme some of that rail bourbon! In a week he'll consume close to a case and carton those Kentucky's Best won't relieve the stress he's incurring, just a river of whiskey until he is swept by its current Rail bourbon, that rail bourbon, gimme some of that rail bourbon!

No Way Out 02:10
One day in the old past you could not see the light Such a very cold past, it was eternal night Then out of the darkness, a new figure arose He looked like a delivery driver in ordinary clothes But he could rock and he could roll, There was no way out and nowhere to go He made a deal with the devil that he could play guitar took it to a new level (level level) and he became a star Then out of the darkness he walked onto the stage he looked like one crazy son of a bitch his eyes were filled with rage But he could rock and he could roll, There was no way out and nowhere to go... Rock:

Dog Bite 02:39
I did not know his name when I walked by that day The old man popped the chain and set it free, he sent his savage dog out after me. I didn't steal his gold, but it doesn't change a thing, believe me when I say, this man, he wants me dead. I could not see the fangs, and I couldn't feel my legs But I kicked my feet so hard into the street but deep inside I felt looming defeat, He took me to the ground with a single flash of teeth, and with that single bite, he took a piece of meat. And I chased that fucker down, right behind the barn. And I kicked that fucking dog into the wall, I don't believe he saw it coming at all. And that's the last time you send a dog to do a man's job, fucking coward.

I said "How dry is your basement?" I see that color in your face went Oh, yes, you've had to make haste, bailing waist deep waste out of your basement, a pair of waders and face mask - How dry is your basement, Oooh, yeah, how dry is YOUR basement? digeridoo the foundation? or have a sump pump replacement Did ya tell 'em "Pick up the pace, gotta make it look like nothing happened," way down in the basement? How dry is your basement, ooh yeah how dry is YOUR basement? You got a bat in your crawlspace? Bottle of whisky in your guitar case? You got a cat for them mice, but it doesn't seem like it can catch 'em, they got the run of the place, man! How dry is your basement? Ooh yeah how dry is YOUR basement? Urine smell in the staircase? Them burning documents in the fireplace? And they'll just have to pardon, them dead man's fingers in the garden, all withered and hardened.

(Instrumental) --- What did I do with that? Where did I put it? If it were a snake it'd bit me hiding in the spot I picked out with my addled pudding What did I do with that? I'm very cunning... my short term memory's my enemy it couldn't have grown legs just now then could it? What did I do with that? Where did I put it? My hat, my keys, my wallet, please, the minutes that I spent while I was looking What did I do with that? Where did I put it?!
