Poetry and Prose
. Performed by: Primus

i ain't one for poetry, ain't one for prose,
ain't one for the scent of a spring-time rose,
but there is one fact that i do know,
i sure get a kick outta that beavis and butt-head show.

today i turned my tv on 
what is it i do see?
two crazy-ass cartoon sons of bitches 
starin' on back at me.
i said "what the hell is this?" 
lern said "boy don't cha know,
the world's gone crazy 
over that there beavis and butt-head show.

talk about calatrition, 
now i can go with that,
i'd be goin' for frog baseball 
but i'm inclined to use a cat.
but normally i'm a stooge's man 
like larry, curly, and moe.
but now and then i get a chuckle 
watchin' the beavis and butt-head show.

known just for a bottle change,
now there's a hell of a band.
they got that real sound 
that's been sweepin' across the land.
there ain't no cheesy shotguns,
and that's too bad for me,
if i had my way of tv places 
then a-that's-a easy.

i ain't nothin' special 
i'm your average kind of man.
i like frosty barley pops
and i drink 'em right outta the can.
i give a rat's ass about poetry
and not a damn about prose,
i sure do get a kick outta 
them beavis and butt-head shows.

* hey beavis..
* i was just like, uhh, thinking and stuff, huh huh, it was pretty cool.
* huh huh, tv's cool.
* hey beavis, i heard that pretty soon they're gonna have, like 500
channels.  huh huh, that's gonna be cool.
* you know what would be really cool though?  if like, one of the channels
didn't suck.
umm.. 3 hundred and twenty-seven.. heh heh..
* because, you know, all those tv shows that suck, it's like, you have to put
'em somewhere, huh huh.. you can't put 'em on the cool channel.  huh huh..
