You know Donnie used to be a communist?
The proletariat now they’ve got a lot more shit
A more comfortable car; a bigger credit card
A slightly easier ride; it doesn’t seem so hard
Is this enough? Nah na nah nah nah nah na nah?
I’m like a teenage man: I’ve got a lot of STUFF
A rock’n’roll guitar; a set of ear plugs
A nice table for two; a better restaurant
A pair of slacks for the wife; it doesn’t seem too much
Is this enough? Nah na nah nah nah nah na nah?
You know Donnie used to be a communist?
Proletariat of the world UNITE!
You know, Donnie used to be a communist!
Proletariat! Proletariat?

Loose wheel you steal
Whose head in the clouds?
Ooh wow. Not now!
Not when I’m coming down…
You said, “Not yet..
That’s a mighty big jump.”
I wish that ditch was only a bump
I can’t get up the hill
Woo wee! You’ll see
I’m god’s gift in a lump
Tight pants, smooth hands
Opposable thumbs
I can’t get up the hill
Freewheel
Steep hill
Too excited to stop
Free ride
Too high
Speed wobble and drop
Sit back! Relax!
You’re gonna get what you want
I wish that ditch was only a bump
I can’t get up the hill

In the dark and timeless evening
Hands that reach out cannot feel it
And now I know why
Trophies, trinkets, they’re not reasons
Plucked wings, dead things, we don’t need them
Now I know why
Comes as life size
Won’t fit back in
Those who suffer, all their children
Lick their wounds but still they’re beaten
Now I know why
Comes as life size
Won’t fit back in
Fold it neatly in four…

Nah nah nah nah
You go insane
Little white light pulsing in your brain
What’s with that halo in your hand?
I… I… I… I no understand!
And yeh, I know I can be strange
Its just a feeling in my brain
What’s with halo in your hair?
I know I’m right
You pull the stare
Amigoes!
Amores!
Alright cha!
Alright yeah!
I… I… I… I… I got it bad
This what I said
I got it bad
Hats off the best you never had
Knocked off your pedestal and fell
I know I’m right
I might as well

A Long Weight

A long time since you had some
A long time since you went one, innit son?
A long term sense of panic
Turn a lifestyle into a habit
Get a long get along come a long
Come a long way
And I've had a long wait
I came a long way
I’m not here to be one
Just here to get some, then I’m done
Quick snap for scrap book
A few lines for the verse and chorus
Get a long come along come along
Get along
Come a long way
I've had a long wait
I came a long way
Get up, what a let down
Strap an anchor to the boy with a fallen crown
Throw it over your shoulder
Move on grow up get older
Get a long come a long long
Get along
Come along
I had a long wait
and I came a long way
That’s not a long weight

Shark infested waters
Sound the alarm!
Shut the water-tight doors!
Sixty foot waves are crashing
Men are dashing themselves against the rocks
Life rafts! Buoyancy aids!
Rubber dinghies
Rubber duckies
Life rafts! Buoyancy aids!
Rubber dinghies
We’re all fucked
SWIM!
Shark infested waters
“Man overboard!” begins the slaughter
All the while the ship is sinking
The captain drowns. His men are singing
They sing,
Life rafts! Buoyancy aids!
Rubber dinghies! Rubber duckies!
Life rafts! Buoyancy aids!
Rubber dinghies
We’re all fucked
SWIM!
WOMEN AND CHILDREN
WOMEN AND CHILDREN
WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST!
WOMEN AND CHILDREN
WOMEN AND CHILDREN
WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST!
Until it’s
Every man for himself…
