about

Third single from the forthcoming album "GTF Outta Dodge".

lyrics

When I hit rock bottom I want to be smiling
Faraway and dreaming, seemingly beguiling
Secretly compiling a launderer's list
Of the enemies I've made and the friends that I've missed
And the women that I laid down with and the lovers that I kissed
And the anger that balls up inside me like a fist
It's like a cancer that grows in my soul like a cyst
And spreads to my heart and head-- that's why I'm always pissed
It's malignant indignant repulsive and repugnant
Inflicted upon myself-- a drastic prejudgment

I'm just playing what I'm feeling
What I'm singing sounds so fine
If you don't find it appealing you can pay it no mind
You may think about these lyrics as elementary rhymes
But it goes without saying that I've sang them a thousand times

Chorus:
I AM SO ANGRY (4x)

When I hit rock bottom I want to be smiling
Faraway and dreaming, seemingly beguiling
Secretly compiling a launderer's list
Of the enemies I've made and the friends that I've missed
And the women that I laid down with and the lovers that I kissed
And the anger that balls up inside me like a fist
It's like a cancer that grows in my soul like a cyst
And spreads to my heart and head-- that's why I'm always pissed
It's malignant indignant repulsive and repugnant
Inflicted upon myself-- a drastic prejudgment

I know what I have done and I'm doing it again
You probably think it's overdone, you're probably right my friend
But I don't want to be picky about what I like to say
My style is simple and tricky and that's how I like to play

(chorus, followed by screams and grunts)

about

The Magic Christians Indianapolis, Indiana

The Magic Christians took their name from the Terry Southern novel of the same name, which was in turn made into a weird movie starring Peter Sellers, Ringo Starr, and various Monty Python members in their pre-Python days. Over the decades the line-up has changed due to the fact that the group doesn't really exist and its members have no idea they are even in the band. ... more
