Mr Creosote Lyrics
Mr. Creosote is better today
He has a bucketlist of things to do
Jugged hare with sauce, truffles, and Grand Marnier
And little that he has to chew

We all eat a little too much sometimes
But we must know when to stop

Mr. Creosote is finished with his bucket of food
Made with extra pate and the quail eggs on top
6 bottles of champagne six cases of beer
It's surprising he didnt stop
The waiter brings the after dinner mint
Surely kind sir wont pass it up
Just one more bite and the waffer thin mint is gone
While the other patrons throw up

Nick Wood once ate a washingbowl of porridge
Nine loaves of bread and three jugs of beer at one time
Jack Biggers tried to eat six pounds of bacon
Greens, and dumplings, bread, and a gallon of beer

Mr. Creosote thought he had it down with
Just half of his expected drink
But somethings happening inside of him
L Elegent is about to stink
A deep rumbling and expanding waist
In spite of that last ala mode
Jack Biggers maybe went the same way
Mr. Creosote is going to explode


Junk Food Junkie Lyrics

When it comes to food
I am always in the mood
My mind wants to munch
More than supper, or brunch
My will it wont say no
To a snack on the go
Picnic or potluck
Iam a slave to my stomach
More than meal routine
My brain wants dopamine.
Give it all to me
Ill always be a junk food junky.

Deep in my soul
I crave snacks in bowls
I sway and I swoon
For goodies on my spoon
My heart goes tock-tick
For carbs on a stick
I am just one more dork
When foods on my fork
When it comes to weight
I dont think straight
Hands, knife, or sporky
Ill always be a junk food junky.

Any way you serve it
My craving wont quit.
The fat hits the spot
Past cranial thought
Make it hot or bitter
My mouth posts on twitter
From bland up to savory
It all appeals to me.
No matter the cuisine
I take it fat and lean
Salty, sweet, chunky
I’ll always be a junk food junky.

Instrumental: My favorite Things

I am tempted to go nuts
For muffins or doughnuts
Id quit or play hooky
For candy or a cookie
Id turn on my fellow
For gummies or jello
Id even cancel Firefly
For ice cream or some pie
When I want to feed
Thats a dangerous need
Thats why I skipped whiskey
Ill always be … a junky

[What...you want more?! No! No pictures this week. Meh! Meeeeeeh!]

Lyrics Gary's Song "Miracle"

Lost in the dark they went searching

Searching everywhere

See moments ago, couldn't have gone far

High and low, near the door, under the blow up mattress

Finally found them in the seat of the car

It's a miracle

She was failing class she needed an A to pass

So she studied for weeks with a tutor she's speak

Working day and night to understand

And on that test something helped her get the questions right

It's a miracle, a miracle

Tho statistics show the odds were pretty good

It's a miracle, a miracle

More often than not things turn out as they would

He was down on his luck down to his last buck

So he bet it all on the lottery

He was so blessed that when he guessed

He got all the numbers spot on

And he and eight other people get to share the winnings

Tho the others didn't need the money at all

It's a miracle, a miracle

Because statistically the odds were long

It's a miracle, a miracle

Even though there was a chance it could happen

Then it was quite possible it just might happen

Don't mean to have your happiness dampened

Fine then it's a miracle

Lyrics Greg's Song "In the Beginning"

In the beginning

In the old testament   

The world was created

Man were bad, floods were sent.   

Holy fire and brimstone

Rained down on Gommorrah   

Ten plagues on Egypt

It’s all there in the torah.   

(CHORUS)

Where are your miracles now?

In the day, god could cook.

Where are your miracles now?

Maybe it’s just a book.

In the beginning

In the old testament   

Red sea was parted

Wars won when walls were rent.   

Men could live in a whale

Manna came from the sky   

Men who looked in the ark

Would just lie down and die.   

(CHORUS)

In the beginning

In the new testament   

A virgin had a child

Shepherds saw the portents.   

Lazarus came to life

Lame could walk, blind could see.   

Touch his robe

Magic in Galilee.   

(CHORUS)

(Instrumental)

(CHORUS)

In the beginning

A little boy in New Jersey   

Goes to his church 

Testament sounds too flimsy.   

Your story doesn’t match

The real world that he sees.   

What’s happened?  What’schanged?

Answer that mystery.  

(CHORUS)

(CHORUS Repeat & fade)
