Triple Bill Of Shame
作詞：Peter Hoffman, Tim Bracy
It was a triple bill of shame degradation and scorn
They pinned it all on you before you were born
Until you're sleeping on coals just to keep you warm
Tonight they broke your hands
They destroyed your honor from the first cold glance
Where they preen and saunter
They said if you won't take her someone's gonna want her
I suppose they threw a ticker tape
Parade to commemorate the call
Now the confetti falls like cannon balls
All southern drawls and seasick waves
As you pass by in the motorcade
Near the paralegals and paired off gents
All those parasites and sycophants
They're all paranormal, they appear discreet
But they'll squawk and claw like parakeets
And you were once of interest

To the nightly news and the daily press
But now that you've outlived your uselessness
Do you know what doesn't happen next
They'll all call you by your number
They won't call you by your name on the triple bill of shame
It was a triple bill of pain, immolation and fear
They watched you month by month
They crept up year by year until you're chained to the door
Stop just to keep you here tonight
In your single mind from your double bed
No one falls behind, no one gets ahead
She said, 'How do I love the little bastard?
I could count the ways on one hand backwards'
But you still like to know where he's coming from
Though the whole of his parts is less than the sum
And you'll paint him with tar and chew him like gum
