Lyrics
BUGSPRAY
music and lyrics by Joe Olivier
Bugspray , needs some more to keep the pests away.
Bugspray, something with a little more deet.
Enter the store, tackled as I walkthrough the door.
?Can I help you sir ? " , No , Thank you.
I?ll just look around , and get pestered some more.
I?ll know when I need help, cuz no one will be there.
Hey, I know, it?s all about the commish . .
I used to do it too. But still I reach for. .
CHORUS
Sit down at dinnertime, must be six on the dime
cuz the phone has started its timely ring.
?Hello, how are you sir! You?d be stupid to ignore,
this offer I?m about to pitch to you.?
?Well if you could throw a strike, It?d be a real lonely night,
but I?ts not , so let me reach for my. . .
CHORUS
CHORDS 4X / SOLO 16X
Searching for the perfect brand , in a can that can
take care of perky in the morning, and
those who feel they must be right in your face
when they talk to you , and don?t take a hint,
the latest craze, in my face, infomercials,
and un-reality TV, turn it off with . . .
CHORUS
