Ballad of Brutus 1 & 2

Eight cylinder
three eighteen
hydromatic overdrive

They don't make cars
like that anymore

Mike's got a car
that knows L.A.
Drunk in Topanga
Radio plays
End of an era
no doubt
Surely red ferns
will sprout

Brutus is a sixty-seven
Now he's up
deep in heaven
a beast, a pig
and a gas hog
Brutus is now
an instrument of God

Brutus are you man or beast?
Are those tires or
are they feet?
Do you use gas or
do you eat?

Brutus back among us
Born in Satan's foulest breath
Hell fire
dipped in blood
Brutus what do you have
under your hood?

Brutus has seen fifteen states
and in six he's been known to break
water pumps, regulators, alternators too
Brutus I am through with you!

Oh here he comes
he's rising again
an immortal soul is his sin
Brutus comes back
when you least expect it
and he will outlive us

Wheels, cylinders and a tortion bar
I know that he'll take me far
Water pump, generator, regulator too
and some tires, that are brand new
The upholstery is ripped
the roof is ripped

Cut cloth
and vinyl roof
Oh Brutus
tell me the truth
Will you ever die?

That's alright
Brutus will ride again tonight
Brutus will take me through all night

Ballad of Brutus and Tina
Ballad of Brutus and Tina
Ballad of Brutus and Tina
So fucking redundant
So fucking redundant

Brutus is a nice brown car
I like to take him real far
All the way to Seattle
He's made of good hard metal

Put me out of your misery
'cause you're driving me to bankruptcy

Look out here he comes again!
