Al Capone
c. '20 Vlayman
Man he hadda a ugly puss
Yeah he had wunna those
And he like to kick up a awful fuss
Heatin' up the city so cold
And man he liked his tommy guns
At least when used by friends
Valentines are hard to come by
When ya want to say it's the end
But at least
As far as it's known
Al Capone owned his own home
-18
but you
youtr a ganster too
except imternational
with a crimin family
a whinin family you ain't nothin' special
And yeah he run a lotta booze
Cuz it was prohibition
Mebbe drugs and women too
Murder fi re hire right in yer kitchen
But at least
As far as it's known
Al Capone owned his own home

Better Angels
c. '20 Vlayman
I know you can't understand the way we wanna be
I can see, we can see, I can see
And I know you don' wanna be anything to me
We can see, I can see, we can see
All we need to be fair
Is to be someone who cares
To be the better angels of our nature
We know you can't understand the way we wanna be
I can see, we can see, I can see
And we know you don' really want us to be free
We can see, I can see, we can see
All we need to be fair
Is to be someone who cares
To be the better angels of our nature
They know you can't understand the way we wanna be
I can see, we can see, they can see
And we know you ever really want us to be free
They can see, I can see, we can see
All we need to be fair
Is to be someone who cares
To be the better angels of our nature

Kettle 'Em
c. '20 Vlayman
ya wanna get 'em goin' yer way
You want 'em not see what's coming
Ya wanna steer 'em the long way round sometimes
Ya wanna keepm their motor hummin'
Ya wanna get 'em concludin' things yer way
Ya want 'em not see the alternatives
Ya want them to think it's all their way
and not realize the imperative
YTa wann drive 'em down the canyon
Ya wanna break 'em in the fields
Ya wanna get 'em runnin' over the cliffs
Without forseeing how it'll feel
This
This is how
you prove yer value
This
this is how
you prove yer mettle
Them
Ya get 'em
goin' yer way
You
You use the kettle

The Likes of Which
c. 20 'Vlayman
Oh yeah, you say, we got the gold
Oh yeah ya say were goin' back
To the glory days of old
we're goin' back
CH: Hey, hey, where's it all been
We got the best of everything
People diein' ain't no thing
The likes of which never been seen
Oh yep, ya say we got the jobs
Society's under control
Despite the antifacist mobs
we're goin' back
To the glory days of old
Hey, hey, where's it all been
We got the best of everything
People diein' ain't no thing
The likes of which never been seen
Oh yeah, they say, they tell me Sir
You the one has brought us back
To the glor y days of old
We got the very best of our own facts
The likes of which never been seen
Hey, hey, where's it all been
We got the best of everything
People diein' ain't no thing
The likes of which never been seen
Oh ho, I say I'm doin' right
Oh ho, I'm the biggest baddest man
I'll never give up any fight
Heel spurs are fake news and you know I'm right
Hey, hey, where's it all been
We got the best of everything
People diein' ain't no thing
The likes of which ever been seen

Squirmer
c. '20 Vlayman
Hunkered down, underground
Tryna keep our heads down
Hidin' here, full of fear
Here in the underground
Don't _ make a sound
Don't even murmur
I know yer a squirmer
Ran all night, full of fight
Into the night
Far as we can, across the land
We can fight
Don't _ make a sound
Don't even murmur
I know yer a squirmer
Don't _ make a sound
Don't even murmur
I know yer a squirmer
Bridge:
And I 'm sorry it's come to this
And I'm sorry, you;'ve a right to be pissed
And I'm sorry, that we missed
Our chance
Pick our place, this here space
To end the race
We can fight, all night
Here in this here space
Don't _ make a sound
Don't even murmur
I know yer a squirmer

Vlayman Chicago, Illinois
Fat, bald and old - could I be anymo' rock-n-roll?
I play guitar, bass, some keys and percussion, and I try to
vocalize. I write and record, and I do so obsessively. Also, I like martoonies, a lot, and I raise my kids, whom I also like, a lot.
Look for me at the TapeOp and TalkBass forums, where I'm vvv, or in various bars in the Loop.
