Jack Ass Brigade

Get off the bus and I caught myself running

Into the truck stop at three in the morning Oh shit

And you thought you had time to take a dump

Drop the kids off at the pool

Stepping out, doo doo, the bus done split

Now you're asking around people for a ride

They won't look you in the eye

They just frown and turn thier heads to the side

So on the side of the road with the will to survive

And the nitty witty gritty

And finally a kind soul gave me a ride

And the zoomings all around and the japanese are killing me

For really won't you look at me

[Chorus]

J.A.B. jackass brigade oh yeah

J.A.B. jackass brigade yeah

Jackass brigade, we got it made, NOT!!!

Even when it's freezing cold or icy hot

J.A.B. jackass brigade yeah

Whoa

Stuck in the middle, you're trapped, no one knows where the gig is at

No one even cares, they just keep looking at my head

Finally we get around to the station

Sneaking past the conductor

And plus the fucking people really scared

I'ma ducking and a dodgin' just to get to my destination at the train station where the guys are waiting for me

Eee-hoo

Just to tell me, eeee, what a jackass I can be

Went through hell and high water to get back

And all they do is laugh at me

And the zoomings all around and the japanese are killing me

For really won't you look at me

[CHORUS]

From the frying pan into the fire

We do it just so that the flames get higher

I smell something burning, maybe it's my ass

So I think I'll add just a little more gas

Circus jerkus, some call it hocus pokus

Running caddywampus but extremely focused

If it wasn't for dreams and fantasy

Too hard to laugh at yourself, so you're laughing at me
