INTRO:
i’m your nuclear explosion!
i’ll grow higher and higher!
’til your head starts spinning!
’til we’re actually winning!
CHORUS:
‘cuz i’m the last son of sam
(that’s what the brahmin told me)
last son of sam…
(now here i am again)
(getting good and holy)
(holy holly!)
(holy molly!)
(yea i’m the last son of sam)
(and i grow bolder everyday)
(but before i die…)
(i’m gonna take your breath away)
‘thar she blows!’
(to backdrop of ”fraid so!’ logo)
(joga as head on fireworks rocket)
(as rolland runts follow him up)
(and michael + anthony look with mouths agape from the ground)
(‘holy boulders’)
(‘model rockets’)
(there…when you’re out of town)
(my heathens and hos)
(there she goes / there she blows)
(forgive and forget)
(on your finest hour)
VERSE:
tempted by the source
like an adam to the apple
i’m the last son of sam
embittered in divorce
and still victorious in battle
i’m the last son of sam…
(the last holy man)
(consequences though there may well be)
(you don’t know nobody more selfish than me)
(or more nasty than i)
(“the consequences”)
(my period piece)
he told me…
(just what i expected least)
(don’t bother with the beast)
(just / and let it go)
and further from your father will you flow
(as they (all) fall)
(as they fall like dominoes)
(and further from your father will you flow)
i’m the last one you’d come to forgiveness…
when ignorance reigns
that’ll be the day they say
i’m putting two and two together today…
(that’s what they’re promising)
my sister emily had rendered me obsolete
and now i’m taking it to the street
that’s where we’ll meet
(make your peace)
(meant to be)
guess again!
my sister emily thought i’d wallow in defeat
well guess again
got her number once again
and kicking down the door upon arrival
(fall forever to the floor)
(that’s not a maybe)
(that’s what i am)
best thing on earth since the caveman
since the gods given birth
sister emily rejected me
dubbed me obsolete
and now she’d better never do me wrong again…
now any old mechanic man…
do what his mama told him…
every other band can play along…
whoops a doodle doo…
what’s all this mean to you
here we go again
we’ll meet again
(noble mind controllers)
(“where’s the last son of sam when you need him?”)
last son of sam
that’s who i am
you’d better be good-looking too
as soon as years start showing
you’d better get in the know
yea i’m keeping on going
as soon as the years start showing
take one for the team
i’ll bring the subtly to
for i’m the last son of sam
burn in
good luck getting sworn in
good thing born white
mesmerization
now you can’t believe
so who could it be?
“on your marks!”
bacteria…
letter to my editor
and so i’ll stay away…
VERSE:
who would wallow in the garden?
and pray for uncle sam
if his heart had not been hardened
he’d have been your superman
my sister emily had rendered me obsolete
and now i’m taking it to the street
that’s where we’ll meet
(make your peace)
(meant to be)
my sister emily thought i’d wallow in defeat
well guess again…
got her number once again…
and kicking down the door upon arrival…
fall forever to the floor
that’s not a maybe…
that’s what i am…
best thing on earth since the caveman…
since the gods given birth…
sister emily rejected me…
(dubbed me obsolete)
(she’d better never do me wrong again)
any old mechanic can
do what his mama told him
every other band can play along…
whoops a doodle doo
what’s all this mean to you?
here we go again
we’ll meet again
sit back and relax
enjoy the show
safe in the scenery
fleeting / fleecing
breathe / breed / believe
bleed a little every day…
if you never left the garden…
(holly)
got a long long way to go…
(before you get the story)
(understand?)
no telling…
yesterday…
look up to the heavens
so yesterday…
so yesterday…
knockin on heaven’s door
confess away
the rest of me is on its way
the recipe for rising from the dead
like yeast inside a good old loaf of bread…
breaking bread…
dwelling on…
paradise…
plant a kiss…
pray for peace…
play for kicks…
play for keeps…
pray for peace…
play it once…
play it twice…
the last son of sam
made a terrible mistake
we made a mess
damsel in distress
OUTRO:
play it again sam…
play it again
sure to be first…
bound to be the last…
goes on and on and on and on…
