Track 3 of Patrick Porter's ‘Goodbye Pork Pie Heart’ LP (2008)
lyrics
SON OF UNABLE
(Lyrics by Patrick Porter C. 2008)
The son is on the runny side of the egg
The egg is on the mother side of the plate
(Your mother is dead, your mother is gone
Your mother went out like a dum-dum)
Son of unable, hey!
Son of unable, ho!
Son of unable
He has high style
He lives a life of petty crime
(GOD DAMN IT!)
The sausage is on the bent side of the fork
The fork is on the wet side of the floor
(Your father is there, your father is wrong
Your father lives life like a dum-dum)
Son of unable, hey!
Son of unable, ho!
Son of unable
He has high style
He lives a life of petty crime
The son is on the runny side
Mmm-hmm
Son of unable, hey!
Son of unable, ho!
Son of unable
He has high style
He lives a life of petty crime
