Uncontrollable urge

got an urge got a surge

and it's out of control

got an urge i wanna purge

'cause i'm losing control

uncontrollable urge

i wanna tell you all about it

uncontrollable urge

makes me scream and shout it

it's got style it's got class

so strong i can't let it pass

i gotta tell you all about it

i gotta scream and shout it

and I say yeah


praying hands

you got your left hand

you got your right hand

the left hand's diddling

while the right hand goes to work

you got both hands

you got praying hands

they pray for no man

(it's all over, play dead)

(get spiritual minded)

o.k. . . . relax. . .

assume the position

go into doggie submission

wash your hands three times a day

always do what your mommy does say

brush your teeth or they'll fall away

wash your hands three times a day


spacejunk

she was walking all alone

down the street in the alley

her name was sally

I never touched her

she never saw it

when she was hit by space junk

in new york miami beach

heavy metal fell in cuba

angola saudi arabia

on xmas eve said norad

a soviet sputnik hit africa

india venezuela (in texas

kansas)

it's falling fast peru too

it keeps coming

and now i'm mad about space junk

i'm all burned out about

spacejunk

oooh walk & talk about space junk

it smashed my baby's head

and now my sally's dead


mongoloid

mongoloid he was a mongoloid

happier than you and me

mongoloid he was a mongoloid

and it determined what he

could see

mongoloid he was a mongoloid

one chromosome too many

mongoloid he was a mongoloid

and it determined what he

could see

and he wore a hat

and he had a job

and he brought home the bacon

so that no one knew

mongoloid he was a mongoloid

his friends were unaware

mongoloid he was a mongoloid

nobody even cared


jocko homo

they tell us that

we lost our tails

evolving up

from little snails

i say it's all

just wind in sails

are we not men?

we are DEVO!

we're pinheads now

we are not whole

we're pinheads all

jocko homo

are we not men?

D-E-V-O

monkey men all

in business suits

teachers and critics

all dance the poot

are we not men?

we are DEVO!

are we not men?

D-E-V-O

we must repeat

o.k. let's go!   (Oh, Give it up!   God made man   But he used the monkey to do it   Apes in the plan   And we're all here to prove it   I can walk like an ape   Talk like an ape   Do what monkeys do   God made man   But a monkey supplied the glue)


too much paranoias

think i got your dial tone

think i got billy baxter's bone

think i got a bubble-sac

think i got a big mac attack

hold the pickles hold the lettuce

special orders don't upset us

all we ask is that you let us

serve it your way

too much paranoias

my momma's afraid to tell me

the things she's afraid of

i been dipped in double meaning

i been stuck with static cling

think i got a rupto-pac

think i got a big mac attack


gut feeling

something about the way

you taste

makes me want to clear my throat

there's a method to your

movements

that really gets my goat

i looked for silver linings

but you're rotten to the core

i've had just about all i can take

you know i can't take it no more

got a gut feeling

centered 'round long time ago

on your ability to torment

then you took your tongs of love

and stripped away my garment

got a gut feeling

something about the way

you taste

makes me want to clear my throat

there's a method to your

movements

that really gets my goat

i looked for silver linings

but you're rotten to the core

i've had just about all i can take

you know i can't take it no more

got a gut feeling

centered 'round long time ago

on your ability to torment

then you took your tongs of love

and stripped away my garment

got a gut feeling

(slap your mammy)


come back jonee

jonee went to the pawnshop

bought himself a guitar

now he's gonna go far

you gotta love 'em and leave 'em

sometimes you deceive 'em

you made her cry

jonee you're bad

you're gonna make her sad

jonee jumped in his datsun

drove out on the expressway

went head-on into a semi

his guitar is all that's left now

he made her cry

now she calls his name

jonee you're to blame


sloppy (i saw my baby gettin')

i saw my baby yesterday

she spent her money on a car

it didn't get her very far

so my baby said to me

you know my baby she

said sloppy

i think i missed the hole


shrivel-up

well it's a god-given fact (that

you can't go back)

it's a god-given law that

you're gonna lose your maw

it's a god-given fact you gotta

buy 'em by the sack

it's a god-given law that

you're gonna get small

may be just another rap but

you're running out of sap

well you better take the rap

dying under daddy's cap

it's at the top of the list that

you can't get pissed

it's rule #1 living right isn't fun

time-tested and true you

gotta pooty poo-poo
