Lacquer Head
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes bored, sometimes lonely
Pimple faced and rather homely
He wasn't much for socializin'
The TV kept him mesmerizin'
In one ear and out the other
Picked up a trick from his older brother
Got him a can of sniffin' salts
Pinned his mind upon the cross
Lacquer head knows but one desire
Lacquer head sets his skull on fire
Lacquer haed knows no in betweens
Huffin' on bags of gasoline
Sniffin' paint since the seventh grade
She was high on gin and Gatorade
On turpintine she lost her luck
Fell in front of a speedin' pick-up truck
He was a boy of soft demeanor
And he loved his caburetor cleaner
The vapor made a sweet aroma
He sniffed himself into a coma
Lacquer head knows but one desire
Lacquer head sets his skull on fire
Lacquer haed knows no in betweens
Huffin' on bags of gasoline
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop!
Lacquer head knows but one desire
Lacquer head sets his skull on fire
Lacquer haed knows no in betweens
Huffin' on bags of gasoline
