lyrics

Gravestones are on sale
Buy one get one free
If you’re broken inside
Have a cuppa the coffee

Take the next right
At the stoplight
Take a human life
Take a life humanely
Take a life humanely
When you think you’re ready

It’s all just for show
It’s all make-believe
If your tongue is tied
Type a letter for me

Vultures eat the corpses
Preachers drive the Porsches
The pool was never open
Never open to the public
I’m so excited
To be extradited

Take the next right
At the stoplight
Take a human life
Take a life humanely

Take the next right (Next right)
At the stop light (Stop light)
Take a human life (Human life)
Take a life humanely (What a time to be dead)
Take a life humanely (What a time to be dead)
When you think you’re ready (What a time to be)

Is this a real life? (Could I be saved by a lifeguard?)
Is this a real life? (Could I be dead in a sports car)
Is this a real life? (Could I be saved by a lifeguard?)
Is this a real life? (Could I be dead in a sports car)

Is this a real life?
Is this a real life?
Is this a real life?
Is this a real life?

about

Big Bill Austin, Texas

Influenced by the deadpan irreverence of The Monks and Talking Heads, Big Bill is known for their darkly comic, nervy take on punk rock. Though their brain-altering live show remains a huge part of their DNA, Big Bill's music has evolved across many lineup changes, stretching from the rawest, weirdest punk into shades of country, new wave and even quasi-classic rock. ... more
