Egrets 03:26
Egrets, Egrets, they just don’t know How I love them so I love to see them fly, they mean so much to me Don’t make me cry Egrets fly away, when you get to close, they fly away Please come back to me Egrets don’t hear, they just don’t care, they don’t care about me Egrets, Egrets, they don’t know I love them so I love to see them fly, they mean so much to me Don’t make me cry Egrets fly away, when you get to close they fly away Please come back to me Egrets don’t hear, Egrets don’t care, they don’t care about me It breaks my heart to a million pieces everytime I see those Egrets fly away It breaks my heart to a million pieces everytime I see those Egrets fly away It breaks my heart to a million pieces everytime I see those Egrets fly away It breaks my heart to a million pieces everytime I see those Egrets fly away It breaks my heart to a million pieces everytime I see those Egrets fly away It breaks my heart to a million pieces everytime I see those Egrets fly away

Mushroom Man 02:25
I heard about a guy, who’ll take you to a place Beyond the cerebral plane He’s got a one way ticket, in a cellophane bag For that Psilocybin Train He’s the Mushroom Man, got a psychedelic plan To take you to his inoculation room He’s the Mushroom Man, got a psychedelic plan To bring you to an enlightened mental bloom He shows you what he’s got, fluffy spores in a jar He’s gonna harvest real soon It’s all part of his process, show the shroomies grow On this trippy afternoon He’s the Mushroom Man, got a psychedelic plan To take you to his inoculation room He’s the Mushroom Man, got a psychedelic plan To bring you to an enlightened mental bloom

If you got somethin' I want it too If you got somethin' I want it too If you got somethin' I want it too If I don't get it fast then I'm gonna be blue Soon as I get it I don't really want it Soon as I get it I don't really want it Soon as I get it I don't really want it But if you take it back then I want it back- gimme that

You can run, but you can’t hide Different time zone on each side of the Big Chain Store Mom and Pop couldn’t pay the rent Now they’ll never make another cent College fund is all gone now, But there’s somethin’ that turns my frown around Can’t believe how cheap the chips are at the Big Chain Store An evil wizard casts an ancient spell That’s how they make everything they sell at the Big Chain Store Secret base underneath, That’s where they torture the union sleaze Their screams are muffled by the sound Of the customers gaspin’ in disbelief Can’t believe how cheap the chips are at the Big Chain Store

I was born on the day Armstrong landed the moon I saw their faces turn away Toward a screen in the corner of the room I knew this wasn’t my place, I knew I wasn’t meant to stay My home was deep in outer space I heard the martians call my name Extraordinary Terrestrial Baby He’s up and at ‘em and away he goes Alienated native baby, the planet Earth just ain’t the way he rolls I greeted them in peace, their leader took me on a tour Utopian society way deep down in Aries’ Core It didn’t run on money, it did not run on crime Everyone loved everything and everybody was steppin’ in line Except for our Lone Celestial Baby He’s up and at ‘em and away he goes He’s lookin’ for something special baby That kinda thing cannot relate to his woes I floated on and on, without intent or course I pondered my own very death, I pondered my own source The answer came out the blue and it was not born of my heart My armpit spoke the greatest truth in the form of a fart Headed straight for our Philosophazer Baby His hand is cuppin’ and away he goes Emaciated elated baby He’s up to get down, in his mind he knows

Endangered Species so many colors I wonder how they taste When I see a beautiful creature I wanna put it in my face Hey I wonder how they taste, oh yeah I wanna put it in my face Eat a Cow, eat a Chicken too, I’d eat a Monkey, and I’d eat a Platypus Eat Endangered Species, they never did no good for me Eat Endangered Species, it’s gonna make you feel so free Endangered bird, with an exotic song, a rarely heard song But when I see it I just wanna put it on my tongue It’s such a beautiful song, oh yeah I wanna put it on my tongue Eat a Kitty Cat, one that’s nice and fat Eat a Tortoise, Eat an Elephant Eat Endangered Species, yeah

What can I say? I like to get drunk I like to get drunk all the time baby What can I say? I like to get drunk I like to get drunk all the time Start each morning with a cup of coffee Pour in a little bit of whiskey Take a tip from me you’ll never get hungover As long as you don’t stop drinkin’ What can I say? I like to get drunk I like to get drunk all the time What can I say? I like to get drunk I like to get drunk all the time What can I say? I love to get drunk Get drunk every night...

It’s a hard time to be a CEO I create the jobs, but I’m treated like a devious foe Let me in, don’t forget about the 1% I got a Llama Farm and a Fennec Fox you can pet Hey, hey this suit ain’t free A trillion’s just a trillion and a trillion ain’t enough Hey, hey I’m gonna have to make some cuts Be my friend or else I’ll lay you off It’s a hard time to be a winner Oh please, why won’t someone invite me to dinner? Don’t you know corporations are people too? And who’s shares are gonna hold me? Hey, hey this suit ain’t free A trillion’s just a trillion and a trillion ain’t enough Hey, hey I’m gonna have to make some cuts Be my friend or else I’ll lay you off

When the world ends I’m gonna yell “Hip Hip Hooray!” I’m gonna cancel all my plans And I’m gonna bury my toupee I’m gonna dropick my phone And I’m gonna run naked in the street Then I’m gonna burn down my house And stand uncomfortably close to the heat, yeah When the world ends I’m gonna drive my car off a cliff, But I’ll dive out at the last second And then I’m gonna hitch-hike a lift Then I’m gonna forage for some food And then I’ll prolly starve to death, But right before I do I’m gonna do a bunch of drugs, yeah

about

The Plaqueys Mc Gregor Bay, Ontario

Michigander Bruos (Caleb & Zach Zweifler) collide with their Californian Cousins (Troy & Heath Zweifler) annually to write & record a new E.P. in 2 weeks time. These transient virtuoso's draw influence anywhere from Captain Beefheart to the Wu-Tang Clan. Don't be surprised if their woeful power ballads coax you to pursue a more meaningful and romantically transcendent lifestyle. ... more
