A morality tale.

lyrics

NO FUNKIES
WE DON’T WANT NO FUNKIES IN HERE
THEY SMELL REALLY BAD AND THEY DRINK ALL OUR BEER
WE DON’T WANT NO FUNKIES IN HERE

I WAS OKAY A FEW YEARS AGO
WHEN THERE WERE JUST A FEW AROUND
BUT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE THEY’RE EVERYWHERE
AND THE SMELL IS BRINGING ME DOWN

I WAS OKAY A LITTLE WHILE BACK
WHEN THEY STAYED IN THEIR PART OF TOWN
BUT NOW THEY’RE LIVING RIGHT DOWN THE STREET
AND THE SMELL IS MAKING ME FROWN

THE ONE WHO LOVES ME SAYS I GOTTA LOVE THE FUNKIES
EVEN THOUGH THEY’RE TAKING OUR JOBS
THE ONE WHO LOVES ME SAYS I GOTTA LOVE THE FUNKIES
CUZ THE FUNKY HELPED ME WHEN I GOT ROBBED
THE FUNKY HELPED ME WHEN I GOT ROBBED
THE FUNKY HELPED ME WHEN I GOT BEAT
THE FUNKY HELPS ME WHEN I’M DOWN AND OUT
THE FUNKY HELPS ME WHEN I’M ON THE STREET

THEN ONE DAY I WAS ALL ALONE
OUTSIDE OF TOWN, I LOST MY CELL PHONE
HIT BY A CAR AND LEFT FOR DEAD
THEN ALL I SEE IS A FUNKY’S HEAD
HE PICKED ME UP AND CLEANED ME OFF
DROVE TO AN E.R. AND DROPPED ME OFF
PAID THE BILL AND DROVE AWAY
I KNOW, MY HEART, IT CHANGED THAT DAY

LOVE THE FUNKIES, WE GOTTA LOVE THE FUNKIES
