Detour: Pizza School

from Miracle on Neon Clown Avenue by Cannonball Statman

lyrics

You left your backpack at pizza school
on your way to the metal show;
you sprayed perfume on everyone in the pit,
we all woke up smelling it,

you broke our strings,
and the skins of our drums.
You said, "OK, I played in North Korea; I'm fucking good,"
and your backpack waited for so long at pizza school.

I wanna build a thing
worth building.
I wanna build a thing;
I wanna build all of these things.

The singers flew all the way to Brooklyn,
and all they saw were trees,
trees, trees, trees. It was all there was;
this was the sticks.

And one of these trees said,
"hey, sing us a song! It's occupational."
And this singer looked over this shoulder and said,
"what am I? A fucking showdog?
Jeez Louise.

I wanna build a thing
worth building.
I want a roof
over my head.

I want coffee
in the morning.

My sonic twin is with me tonight.
I found him on the steps below the highway.
We spoke without words, and we knew
we were no longer alone.

We want an end to all suffering.
We want coffee in the morning;
coffee is best enjoyed with someone you love.

We are in love;
it's the most terrifying thing we've ever felt,
but we are terrorists,
and we reap what terror we sow.

We want an end to all suffering.
We want coffee in the morning,
afternoon, and evening."
