WordWolf Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 OK, since nobody here apparently has heard Crazy Town's one hit, "Butterfly", I will move on with a different song. "The other day I had a ricochet biscuit. A ricochet biscuit is the kind of a biscuit that's supposed to bounce back off the wall into your mouth. If it don't bounce back... you go hungry."

WordWolf Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I thought I was excluded! I used to joke about this song from time to time (but not on the GSC.) "Short Skirt, Long Jacket," by Cake. If you like one Cake song, you'll probably like most of them. (And if you dislike one, you'll probably dislike most.) Cake did a show of some kind for Guitar Center. The singer, when he got to the "na na na" part, prefaced it by prompting the audience. Something like 'And then the audience, with no prompting, joined together to sing the chorus." But a roomful of disaffected hipsters is NOT going to play along, so that fell flat. My reference to the "na na na" part, however, was from the video of the song. It's awful, and I love it. It's a video of total strangers who have never heard "Cake" listening to this song and giving their impressions of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

Here's the whole song, with the title redacted:
Up every mornin just to keep a job
I gotta fight my way through the hustling mob
Sounds of the city poundin in my brain
While another day goes down the drain
But its a [TITLE] when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
And theres a [PARTIAL TITLE] me inside my clothes
Thinkin that the world looks fine, yeah
Tradin my time for the pay I get
Livin on money that I aint made yet
Ive been goin tryin to make my way
While I live for the end of the day
Cuz its a [TITLE] when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time, and
Theres a long-haired girl who waits, I know
To ease my troubled mind, yeah
oh my lady, yeah
oh my lady, yeah
In the shelter of her arms everythings OK
When she talks then the world goes slippin away
And I know the reason I can still go on
When every other reason is gone,
In my [TITLE] she waits for me
Nothing else matters at all
Cuz every time my baby smiles at me
I know thats its all worthwhile,
yeah oh my lady,
yeah oh my lady, yeah

I want a girl who gets up early
I want a girl who stays up late
I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
Who uses a machete to cut through red tape
With fingernails that shine like justice
And a voice that is dark like tinted glass
She is fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack
She's cruising the facility
And picking up slack
