The Ballad of Karen McDougal
c. '18 Vlayman
You say you loved the man
Didn't help you were no smarter than
Alla his other lady friends
You say you loved the man
Many times innna 10 month span
But then you brought it to a end
Yer so lovable
Karen McDougal
So then that very same man
He wanted to get laid again
And mebbe, mebbe claim a win
He ran for higher office
Knew he could fool almost all of us
For him to not win was the sin
And you yer so lovable
Karen McDougal
You gotta story to tell
Karen McDougal
Little girl from Merriville
Screwed a man so terrible
Playmate of the year in '98
'06 was the start of it all
'18 and it hit the wall
Now I wonder if ya regret it
And you yer so lovable
Karen McDougal
You gotta story to tell

The Burning Times
c. '18 Vlayman
And they're gonna tell ya shite that ain't true
It's what they do
And they're gonna tell ya the sky is fallin' down
But look around, look around you
Oh, it's a pagan crime
They're lookin' for
The return of
The Burning Times
And they're gonna whisper then they're gonna scream
Ain't no inbetween
And the truth is you been owned
Ain't they, Mr. Jones
CH
And they're gonna tell ya shite that ain't true
It's what they do

Talkin' Trash
c. '18 Vlayman
Yer the best and yer smartest
4The greast and biggest-hearted
You fooled so many for a little while
with yer Chesire smile 2x
CH
You keep talkin' so fast
You keep talkin' yer trash
I know you wanna make it last
But, yer just talkin' trash
There is them what say they know you
and you don't mean it
They can't see that you show the real you
yer that mean-spirited
yeah

CH 2x
And if yer under someone's thumb, (I gotta ask)
How the fuck could we be so dumb, (I gotta ask)
And now they're whinin' that they're numb, (I gotta say)
Gonna be hell to pay
CH 3x

Winner Face
c. '18 Vlayman
When they come for me
I think I'll be ready
When they come for me
I'll be happy
When they come for you
what are you gonna do?
When they come for you
Will you smile?
This is how
I forsee it
Put your winer face on, baby
And be it
When they come for us
We'll be locked and loaded
When they come for us
No one will have told them
When we come for them
We ain't leavin' fast
When we come for them
We are leavin' last
CH 2x

Guinevere
c. '18 Vlayman
I know you like to play the ponies
You like to ride one in the night whenever you can
You say you cannot stand the phonies
And you drop yer money on whatever outlives your attention span
It ain't that you got no common sense
You made it this long still alive
Altho' every one what knows you more than a week
Is still surprised that you survived
You don't know no fear
Yes, we're surprised yor still here
You don't know no fear
Doya Guinevere?
We all know yer one for playin' nasty games
You ain't know no shame, 2x
We all know yer one for playin' nasty games
You ain't mind the pain, no
You don't know no fear
Yes, we're surprised yor still here
You don't know no fear
Doya Guinevere?
We all know yer one for playin' nasty games
You ain't mind the pain 2x
You don't know no fear
Yes, we're surprised you came back here
You don't know no fear
Doya Guinevere?

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.
