Everybody’s got a little light under the sun
“Flashlight” by G. Clinton, B. Worrell, & B. Collins
Yeah
Here they come
Laser beams and bass lines
Here they come
Never before
Has the galaxy seen
Such strength
Such Magnanimity
Such Bad Ass Mother Fuckers,
With keen eyes and straight shots,
That’s them, a posse of straight shooting
Mother Fuckers
The Doo-Doo Heads
Starry eyes and starry pens
Huge egos and huge cocks
Into the sunset walk the Doo-Doo Heads
No Julius Lester wannabes
No half ass Stagger Lees
No pussy-ass Earth hot-air
And no fire
The real deal
The one and only
Doo-Doo Heads
Into the sunset walk
the Doo-Doo Heads
