Black fly buzzin', buzzin' around
Black fly flyin' from town to town Black fly lookin' around and around What's he gonna do when he finds her? He got the mojo workin' overtime Makin' it, layin' it on the line Chasin' his honey with a honeysuckle vine Who's so lucky and gets to kiss her? Black fly, that's right Black fly, that's right Flyin' round lookin' for a black cat bone Flyin' with John the conquerer showin' Messin' around with a honey-bee Will she kiss him or sting him, what's it gonna be? Black fly, that's right Black fly, that's right Black fly buzzin, buzzin' around Black fly flyin' from town to town Black fly zzzzz'n all around Fly gonna fly when he find her Black fly, that's right Black fly, that's right Black fly, that's right Black fly, yeah that's alright 04. What's Up With That
Well how much blues do you use
Before you use it up And how many fools take a chance Before they hit it lucky Tomorrow's wanna be the day It never seem to work that way What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that Everybody want a little more Than they think they got But what you might think it is, Might really not be, baby Pick it up or leave it lay It always seem to slip away What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that Now how high will a river get Before it overflows And how long is the hole to China It don't really know This is what it's all about There's always gonna be a doubt What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that 05. Vincent Price Blues
He/she wanna be
Body and soul just don't agree There's an answer, gotta go for a Tijuana tuck-n-roll He/she just got a zipper job A zipper job It ain't nothin', it ain't no thing It's just changin' face of yin and yang Ain't no callin' for alarm It's just a different kind of charm It's alright, on one condition Certainly before transition No one even need a clue Just pull the old switch-a-roo He/she done got a brand-new glistening zipper job Oh yes, a zipper job Flip, strip, zip, trip a talon-42 Timing is everything For kings, queens, and in-betweens It's a question of what to do 'Cos what is what and who is who? He/she just got a zipper job An everlasting zipper job 07. Hairdresser
What a shame, what a shame, what a shame
The shape my hair is in It's way too humid, today, my head, it ain't no friend If I was seen out, I'd have me arrested Gimme, gimme, gimme my sweet hairdresser Hairdresser, hairdresser She's hip to the latest bob, She give a good lather-job She don't stand no messin' around Gimme, gimme, gimme my hairdresser this town Hairdresser, hairdresser Conk it up, conk me baby I likes a wax, I likes a straight I don't like the kind of hair you love to hate I can dig it dread, I can dig it buzzed I can dig a 'do' that does the fuzz God, my hair it looks molested Gimme, gimme, gimme my sweet hairdresser Hairdresser, hairdresser Hairdresser, hairdresser Yo, yo, Milano 08. She's Just Killing Me
Everything about her was natural
Everything about her was cool But I'm a little partial for beautiful girls Even if they blood runs blue I think I see her I think I want her I think I love her She's just killing me I think she's killing me Her castanets are enormous Her bongo beat absolute And when she doin' midnite performances She's got a secret somethin' to boot I think I see her I think I want her Oh, I think I love her But she's just killing me I think she's killing me Miss Satanic Pandemonia Don't get any lower or slower What you see is what you get conmigo And the bonus of an albino boa I think I see her I think I want her Yes, I think I love her She's just killing me She's just killing me (That's some time I had) I think I see her I know I love her Yes, I might love her She's just killing me She wanna be killing me (Suck my blood) 09. My Mind Is Gone
I have to go to my parole-boy
To remember just who I am One thing else I don't enjoy is Forgetting her monogram She electrifies my physical mass She really turns me on My mind is gone My mind is gone She quite simply wrecks me She just tears me apart She screws me up and skewers me She made it quite an art She guts me like a hollow-point She really turns me on My mind is gone My mind is gone Yeah, Billy I know what you mean It's the smell of the dress That made my mind a mess It's her chokin' throat Really gets my goat-tee and amen Yes, indeed She makes my head and heart bleed Been so long since I knocked some off My mind is gone My mind is gone My mind is gone My mind is gone Tell me about it 10. Loaded

Pretty Head
