Throw another trauma on the triage fire Stick a fork in, I think we done just fine Chicken nuggets are always impressive But my emotional state is more and more regressive I never said I'd be enlightened But there's no reason for you to be frightened Someday those ants will have their revenge I took a shower with them and that's what they said Gut a pocket full of toothpicks, some of them used These are the days when you wish your head was in a noose I never said I'd be excited But that's the only way to make you delighted

Chinese ball gag in my mouth I’d stay for dinner but I’m headed south I’d like to see how this all turns out But I might be British by then Be my mouse, I got a thorn in my foot Tell me stories when you’re doing good There might be a celebration soon After the Saturday Night full moon Golden Horsie just as good as the best It might be stupid but just look at the rest You’re only paying for a shiny package It might as well be stir fried cabbage Reassure me when you get a minute You’re digging up trauma I just hope I’m not in it You know it’s quite all right to stay Quiet about what you did today

Broken 03:17
Don't fix what ain't broken Don't plook what ain't movin' Don't mess with old Jimmy down at the store 'Cause Brother, if you do Gonna come down on your head Like a concrete tornado Won't even be crumbs left For the buzzards to chew Ain't no life without livin' So get up out the house Breakdance like it's 1984 Last chance to drop kick the floor Gimme a virgin bloody Mary With an Alka Seltzer sidecar Put Steve Earle on the jukebox And I'll kick your teeth in

Stages 05:02
I hope you enjoyed what you had I hope you enjoyed what you had Because it's never coming back You should have took advantage last year You should have took advantage last year Instead you stood outside with a sneer Life runs in stages And this one's in an empty auditorium Putting dogs in cages When you should be loving and enjoying them Better check the gauges You may have overestimated time Life runs in stages And this one's in an empty auditorium The purpose of life is to be happy The purpose of life is to be happy Said some stupid billboard on the highway They say that life begins at conception But they never mention that it Ends on the wrong end of an open carry weapon

"Mr. Stedman's music is both goofy and intelligent, a rare blend indeed. Wildly inventive and fun. Yet ANOTHER example of the value of 'home-tapers'. " - Baby Sue Music Review
