Blue Light Special


Forty day tear
Got roadwear
No-doze braking, breaking, breaker
Caffeine shakes
Can't feel my legs
Three-quarters dead
Motel ahead

Just give me table and a shingle shed
Just give me cable and a single bed
Have a ray gun
Sleep tight, son
Desk man's got a face like Norman Bates

Don't let it out of the box!
Yeah, the blue light is good
Yeah, the blue light is great
Gotta pile it on your blue light special plate
If you shovel it in
They can vacuum you out
Gonna take you on a junket that you never dreamed about

Unwinding
Snowblinding
Got a mindset
Pushing, pushing
New deal for new masses
Grey matter into ashes

Psych line
Tone your belly
Hair elixir
Royal jelly
Shark attack
Legal weasel
Dial-a-honey
Drive a diesel
Slash film Sunday
Buy the set
Q.V. shop
Shovel debt
Funny, funny
Like a fool and his money, money

Don't let it out of the box!
Yeah, the blue light is good
Yeah, the blue light is great
Gotta pile it on your blue light special plate
If you shovel it in
They can vacuum you out
Gonna take you on a junket that you never dreamed about
Woke up in bed
With a pounding head
Cheetos
Visine
Some vending machine
Tube's playing 'taps'
I ain't takin' the hook
Next time I get that tired, gonna read me a book
