Neighborhood Weirdo
Lyrics by James Cennamo
In my town I don't get a hello
Or how's by you
They think that I'm strange
A nut with a soda jerk hairdo
Saturday morning when I go to sleep
The mowers start to whir
And in my head is TNT
Black lingerie and panther fur
And while our skin sticks
To a lay-boy chair
I stand in my room
With my arms in the air
It's okay, keep your daughters locked up
It's all right, keep your wives locked up
How does it feel, oh,
To be the neighborhood weirdo'
Do they try to tell you
Which way the wind blows'
Don't they know
That I am the
Neighborhood weirdo
In your neighborhood
Weirdo
In your neighborhood
In my town, I don't say too much
I don't blast my stereo
The kids think it's strange
A real "I don't know"
Monday morning when I go to work
The gears start to turn
And in my head is styrofoam
Dancing food and carpet burns
And while your skin sticks
To a lazyboy chair
I stand in my room
With my arms in the air
It's okay, keep your daughters locked up
It's all right, keep your wives locked up
How does it feel, oh,
To be the neighborhood weirdo'
Do they try to tell you
Which way the wind blows'
Don't they know that I am the neighborhood weirdo
In your neighborhood, weirdo
In your neighborhood, weirdo
Monster Rock
In the nineteen nineties if we have a big nuclear war
And everybody's walking around ugly
And your body's all festering with sores
This subject matter you may not like
But radiation acne's really got some bite
That's why I've got this song ready for you
As far as most people are concerned
To be ugly you've got a lot to learn
Ugly could be your feelings
Ugly could be the things that you say
Ugly could be your thoughts or your actions
It wouldn't matter if she had a bald spot
On her head or anywhere else
Or hairy armpits or hairy legs
Or even a moustache
I love Italian girls
Or if she scratched herself in some unmentionable place
It wouldn't matter to me
As long as she had
A nice personality
Was witty
Or had money
Personality was witty or had money
I love to rock because I'm a rock-and-rollster
I love to rock because I'm a rock-and-rollster
I love to rock because I'm a rock-and-roll monster
Make me your M-O-N-ster
Make me your M-O-N-ster
Make me your M-O-N-ster today
Lance Gargoyle, friend of the ugly
Lance Gargoyle, friend of the ugly
A monster among men and women
And children over eighteen
That's lean
But I've got to say
That I'm a rock-and-rollster
That I'm a rock-and-rollster
It's only monster rock
Once it gets going, it ain't gonna stop
It's monster rock and roll
Once it gains momentum, it'll be out of control
Etc. etc. etc.
