a place for jotting down lyrics to songs in progress
Pull the Ladder Up
a "conservative" Christmas song
When the world is piling snow on everything in sight
It's so nice to know your parachute is safe and tight
Never mind the human race
You know you've earned your place
They deserve to freeze if they're sleeping in the streets tonight.
Chorus:
So pull the ladder up behind you this Christmas
If you help too much then it shows you don't really care.
Keep everyone in their place this Christmas
'Cuz they make you feel higher up when they stay down there.
When Santa's bringing gifts to all the girls and boys
Make sure he's paid full retail for all those toys.
So some people are in need
Why not just let them bleed?
They could always come inside; they've made their choice.
With earnings you can hide, and poor people outside
Watching people freeze
Puts a great big smile on a job-creator's face
Give everything you can to your local retail chain
Gas was better when it wasn't safe, no matter what they've said
Don't let that socialist Santa Claus pry your guns out from your paws
For Christmas dinner this year everyone will have their fill of lead.
Chorus:
So pull the ladder up behind you this Christmas
If you help too much then it shows you don't really care.
Keep everyone in their place this Christmas
'Cuz they make you look higher up when they stay down there.
So pull the ladder up behind you this Christmas
Keep everyone in their place for goodness' sake.
Untitled #1
(Sung kind of like The Ramones meet "Not Fade Away")
- Now hush little baby, this won't take long
- Mama gonna sing you a rock 'n' roll song
- Gonna tell you all about the birds 'n' the bees
- 'N' the people who work for the record companies
Nursery Rhyme
There's a little man in a big white house
And he doesn't know what to do
All the things he planned aren't working out
And nobody will do what he tells them to.
He wanders around trying to find the lights
The people who know, he sent away
His friends only know what he tells them about
So they're alone all together in the dark they made.
He thought he could keep out the bad guys
By building a wall to the sun
But the bad guys are here, 'cause he brought them himself
And now we all know that he's also one.
