Lyrics
Look at me, look at me, look at the things I do
I’m not a Druid nor a Christian nor a Buddist nor a Jew.
You may think I’m a devil but you know that isn’t true
You may think that I’m evil but I’m not one of you.

I’m not one of you, I’m not one of you
Don’t try to understand me ‘cause I’m not one of you
‘Cause Satan is a pussy and God’s gonna kill him
‘Cause Satan is a pussy and God’s gonna kill him
‘Cause Satan is a pussy and God’s gonna kill him

I’m not a Baptist nor a Voodoo nor a Sergeant nor a whore.
I don’t study Krishna, I’m not rich but I’m not poor
You may think I’m a devil, you may think that my skin is blue
You may think I’m a monster but I’m not one of you

I don’t draw stars and I don’t use blood
You can think that I’m strong, you can think I’m a dud
You can think anything that you want to
But get this in your head – I’m not one of you

Lyrics
All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I’ve been for a walk on a winter’s day
I’d be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin’ (California dreamin’) on such a winter’s day

Stopped in to a church I passed along the way
Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher likes the cold, he knows I’m gonna stay
California dreamin’ (California dreamin’) on such a winter’s day
California dreamin’ (California dreamin’) on such a winter’s day

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I’ve been for a walk on a winter’s day
If I didn’t tell her I could leave today
California dreamin’ (California dreamin’) on such a winter’s day
California dreamin’ (California dreamin’) on such a winter’s day
California dreamin’ on such a winter’s day

[audio:Hormoans/09-Blockhead.mp3]

Lyrics
Never leaves a gap unfilled
Always pays on time, always fits the bill
He comes well prepared

Cube top, squared off, eight corners, 90-degree angles
Flat top, stares straight ahead, stock parts, blockhead

Never tips over, stands up on his own
He is a blockhead thinking man full grown
He comes well prepared

Cube top, squared off, eight corners, 90-degree angles
Flat top, stares straight ahead, snake eyes, blockhead

Flat top, stares straight ahead, snake eyes, blockhead

Never tips over, stands up on his own
He is a blockhead thinking man full grown
He comes well prepared

Cube top (blockhead!), squared off (blockhead!)
Eight corners (blockhead!), 90-degree angles
Flat top (blockhead!), stares straight ahead (blockhead!)
Stock parts (blockhead!), blockhead
