Brute Force and Ignorance (Live)
Brute Force And Ignorance just hit town
Looking like survivors from the lost and found
Brute Force And Ignorance have come to play
A one-night stand at eight o'clock, then they'll be on their way
This old town's exploding and the mayor's uptight
He'd like to make it to the show, but he knows it's not his night
He's got to be beholding to his legal spouse
But she's put the thumbscrews on him
And snuck out of the house, there she goes
Yeah, the picture on the poster raised an eyebrow or two
At 55 to seven, Lord, you should've seen the queue
City slick and country hick, they came one and all
The traffic-light girl and the downhome kids assembled at the hall
Brute Force And Ignorance, yes, that's the name
The young folks gonna miss them, now they've gone away
Well, the show got so crazy, today they took the billboard down
I'll never forget the scene last night, the band was escorted out of town
This little town's back in slow motion, I'm sad to say
After the confusion it'll never be the same
Well, I took a walk down Main Street, just to pass the time
And I could hear that music still rolling through my mind, mid, mind, mind
Brute Force And Ignorance, they sure hit town
And if you want to find them, buddy
They're down at the Lost and Found, go
Brute Force And Ignorance, alright
Looking like survivors from the lost and found
Brute Force And Ignorance have come to play
A one-night stand at eight o'clock, then they'll be on their way
This old town's exploding and the mayor's uptight
He'd like to make it to the show, but he knows it's not his night
He's got to be beholding to his legal spouse
But she's put the thumbscrews on him
And snuck out of the house, there she goes
Yeah, the picture on the poster raised an eyebrow or two
At 55 to seven, Lord, you should've seen the queue
City slick and country hick, they came one and all
The traffic-light girl and the downhome kids assembled at the hall
Brute Force And Ignorance, yes, that's the name
The young folks gonna miss them, now they've gone away
Well, the show got so crazy, today they took the billboard down
I'll never forget the scene last night, the band was escorted out of town
This little town's back in slow motion, I'm sad to say
After the confusion it'll never be the same
Well, I took a walk down Main Street, just to pass the time
And I could hear that music still rolling through my mind, mid, mind, mind
Brute Force And Ignorance, they sure hit town
And if you want to find them, buddy
They're down at the Lost and Found, go
Brute Force And Ignorance, alright
