One Man Show Lyrics by Gregory Pepper & His Problems

With Trumpets Flaring

2009

I would solemnly swear that it's over
And I could brush all this dirt off my shoulder
But, god, how the spotlight is on
And nothing beats the sweet relief of walking off
Cursed is the roamer
Something breaks and snaps and makes him act the way he does
Over and over
A man mistook me for a bicycle
He did not know I was a truck
Crashed and made a bloody wreck
And I said, "hey, well, what the fuck?"
They gestured when they saw the flames
"Hey there mister, honk the horn pleasе"
I obliged and sold CDs that I had made
Of all the songs that I might play
But always prеsent is a sense of doubt
Day by day, the fear, it grows
And always lurking is a beast
By the name of a one man show
Though every once in a while
I feel a wink or a smile, oh-oh
And every once in a while
I become a shark with legs, or a crocodile
Though every once in a while
I feel a wink or a smile, oh-oh
And every once in a while
I become a shark with legs, or a crocodile
Or a truck with big huge tires
But mostly
I get fired up hating myself for doing what I want
At the end is a thousand pieces
Don't pretend like it ain't no fun, oh
When the end is flies on feces
Just get bent, or honey come along
Oh, in the end, is a pipe that freezes
And the thaw, you know it's in a song
(I know it's late, but really)
Oh and the end is a billion pieces
So get bent or sugar come along, mm
And I would solemnly swear that it's over
