homefries (lyrics)

CHORUS:

a homefried recorder
an unpublished author
(arv: “believe me he’s dreadful…”)

a headful of corny ideas ‘neath dirty white hair…
(arv: “we DON’T wanna go there…)

he gave up work in the sixties
(though SO not a hippy)

gave up men in the eighties
now he’s HIV-free and “clean”
(whatever that means)
(he seems pretty dirty to me)

(SOLO:)

a handful of secrets to share

BRIDGE:

his sister writes about movies
just so her poor bastard brother can eat
tried killing himself on benadryl pills
but he still won’t admit defeat

i deemed him deviant and sexually obscene

(now he wants to kill me)
