Thrashin’ Lyrics by George Clinton

Some Of My Best Jokes Are Friends

1985

Molested
Protested
Arrested
And the missile business booms
On all the mother's hemispheres
Fail-safe, DEFCON
Missiles set to cruise
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
Thrashin'
Mashin'
Cashin' on the groove
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
Short range deployment
It promotes
Long range unenjoyment
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
And the missile business booms
On all the mother's hemispheres
Thrashin'
Mashin'
Never gonna blow a groove
Take cover in the groove
We'll be thrashin' on you
BOOM SHAKE LA KA LA KA BOOM BOOM
SHAKE LA KA LA KA BOOM BOOM BOOM
Thrashin'
Mashin'
Cashin' on the groove
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
Short range deployment
Oh yes, it promotes
Long range unenjoyment
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
We'll be thrashin' on you
Thrash, thrash, thrash
Thrash, thrash, thrash
We'll be thrashin' on you
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
And the missile business booms
On all the mother’s hemispheres
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
We'll be thrashin' on you
Molested
Invested
Protested
Ingested
Arrested
And the missile business mushrooms
On all the mother’s hemispheres
Short range deployment
It promotes
Long range unenjoyment
Take no prisoners, show no mercy
Oh, no!
Thrashin'
Mashin'
Cashin' on the groove
Never gonna blow a groove
And the missile business booms
On all the mother’s hemispheres
Say "Boom!"
Boom!
Cashin' on the groove
Never gonna blow a groove
Take cover in the groove
There's no business
Like Blow business
Like Bomb business
Like BOOM!
