Taking Myself Out on the Town

from The Man is Fat by Roy Ivy

/

lyrics

if great minds stink alike
then my soul mate is in the same funk
we hate people/but we're lonesome/
but who needs a new excuse to get drunk
so you go on your own/and you stand on your own
you can hear everybody's thoughts
like an angel from wings of desire
without no desire and no Peter Falk
nothing is worth writing home about

it's like everyone I liked went on strike
and these are the scabs
it's a play I hate by heart
performed by a lesser cast
I know every piece of ass that passes
ain't worth the world of shit that comes down
im taking myself out on the town

I'm gonna barge
Through the sea
Of people better looking than me
And people much worse looking that me
Who make me feel a little better about me
I'm a very good listener
Since everyone's so loud
You punched your weight I ain't worth writing home about

it's inappropriate for men my age
to hang out on a night this young
all parties involved agree
it looks disgusting from every angle
but it's my special day
it's time to paint it brown
I'm taking myself out on the town

about

Roy Ivy Butte, montana

Drinking songs and sing-alongs: that's Roy Ivy's specialty .If you haven't seen him dancing and sloshing about Butte, America, you may have met him in his past lives as a Chicago troubadour. Or maybe you met him in Dallas, where he ran The Tah-Dahs off a cliff, and stupidly quit The Polyphonic Spree before they toured with Bowie.

New songs coming by the end of 2023.
