Double Joe
The light is green
But it should not movin'
It's a stoplight after all
It's not a go light
It ain't your night
You need a bug-light
So you can pop and crawl
Sure, I'll share your
Ugly duckling alcohol
Surgery's over and you're bouncing back
So spill your guts friend, but
Hey, not on my pants
You're not outta luck
You still got half a pack of cigarettes
It's anomie, lonely, lonely boy
Why don't she go see a show?
It's a sure-fire cure
Pretend the drum beat is your heart
Double Joe, Double Joe
He ain't afraid of his cymbals
All his jumping jacks
They're just heart attacks
The sugar smacks you every time
You wanna be anonymous, well
You could be like parallel lines
If you wanna be untouchable, well
You could be a hologram, but
Home is where you hang out
Not where you hang yourself
Life is just a fleeting opportunity
To do a belly dance
On an atomic particle
Existence is essence
And love is just a silly aftertaste
It's anomie, lonely, lonely boy
Why don't she go see a show?
It's a sure-fire cure
Pretend the drumbeat is your heart
Double Joe, Double Joe
He ain't afraid of his cymbals
Double Joe
He ain't afraid of his cymbals
But it should not movin'
It's a stoplight after all
It's not a go light
It ain't your night
You need a bug-light
So you can pop and crawl
Sure, I'll share your
Ugly duckling alcohol
Surgery's over and you're bouncing back
So spill your guts friend, but
Hey, not on my pants
You're not outta luck
You still got half a pack of cigarettes
It's anomie, lonely, lonely boy
Why don't she go see a show?
It's a sure-fire cure
Pretend the drum beat is your heart
Double Joe, Double Joe
He ain't afraid of his cymbals
All his jumping jacks
They're just heart attacks
The sugar smacks you every time
You wanna be anonymous, well
You could be like parallel lines
If you wanna be untouchable, well
You could be a hologram, but
Home is where you hang out
Not where you hang yourself
Life is just a fleeting opportunity
To do a belly dance
On an atomic particle
Existence is essence
And love is just a silly aftertaste
It's anomie, lonely, lonely boy
Why don't she go see a show?
It's a sure-fire cure
Pretend the drumbeat is your heart
Double Joe, Double Joe
He ain't afraid of his cymbals
Double Joe
He ain't afraid of his cymbals
