lyrics

School really sucks
My best friend Carl crapped his pants again
And that bully Todd is such a jerk
Needless to say I've had a rough day
All I wanna do is go back home And eat some tasty tacos
But my mom won't let me

Oh no, mom and dad made soup beans and cornbread
And it's so unfair cause we never get tacos
And you know if I was all grown up I could do and say and eat what I wanted
And I would never have to eat soup beans and cornbread

Why would anyone Make bread out of corn?
And who likes bean soup?
Only communists and mom and dad
I don't see why we can't have tacos
We have everything we need to make
Sweet meaty, cheesy, tasty, ooey, gooey tacos

Oh no, mom and dad made soup beans and cornbread
And it's so unfair cause we never get tacos
And you know if I was all grown up I could do and say and eat what I wanted
And I would never have to eat soup beans and cornbread

Clean my room up. Put my clothes in the hamper now So please can we have tacos?
Do my homework and be nice to my brother now So please can we have tacos?
Be a good boy. Feed the dog.
Mow the lawn and go to Sunday school.
Learn all about magic animals
And fake a smile for the tacos that await me

Sit your ass back down
Wipe that smile off your face
Your eating habits are a disgrace
And you better clean your plate
For this is how Americans eat
And you need to understand if out plan is to succeed
Of course we make bread out of corn
We make everything from corn
And we have since before you were born
So eat your brown and your green thing
And everything between before you ruin everything With your Mexican cuisine

Oh no, mom and dad made soup beans and cornbread
And it's so unfair cause we never get tacos
And you know if I was all grown up I could do and say and eat what I wanted
And I would never have to eat soup beans and cornbread
Oh no, mom and dad made soup beans and cornbread
And it's so unfair cause we never get tacos
And you know if I was all grown up I could do and say and eat what I wanted
And I would never have to eat soup beans and cornbread

about

Bonecage Austin, Texas

The man, the myth, the legend... I write songs about my grandma, homemade vaginas and Arnold Schwarzenegger movies.

Weird Al Yankovic, Jonathan Coulton, Tenacious D... probably all better than me BUT, if you like that style, you might just love me.

My songs encompasses a range of genres from Pop-Punk to Motown to Adult Contemporary. A little something for everyone, and it's all ridiculous. ... more

Technically my favorite track is "You Don't Know Jack (Plan B)", because it's just a great reimagining (Some Jerk with a Camera is now officially a reimagineer). But a lot of the album is good, and the "Luke Ski Phase 2" stuff is also good, but different. Erin A Cobb
