PRIMUS LYRICS - Lacquer Head

"Lacquer Head"



Sometimes bored and sometimes lonely

Pimple faced and rather homely

He wasn't much for socializin'

The TV kept a mesmerizin'



In one ear and out the other

Picked up a trick from his older brother

Got him a can of sniffin' sauce

Pinned his mind up on a cross



Lacquer head knows but one desire

Lacquer head sets his skull on fire

Lacquer head knows no in betweens

Huffin' on bags of gasoline



Sniffin' paint since the seventh grade

She was high on gin and gatorade

On turpentine she lost her luck

Fell in front of a speeding pick-up truck



He was a boy of soft demeanor

And he loved his carburetor cleaner

The vapor made a sweet aroma

He sniffed himself into a coma



Lacquer head feeds his one desire

Lacquer head sets his brain on fire

Lacquer head knows no in betweens

Huffin' on bags of gasoline



Keep on sniffin' till yer brain goes pop
