artless - ugly people with fancy hairdos lyrics

intro

girl: you can’t get happy so you pour yourself another beer
stick a pin into your ear
what is there to fear, dear?
afraid you might be queer, dear?

you can’t get happy so you roll a joint and have a toke
have a little smoke
say life’s all a joke
no?
mykel: nooooo!!!

girl: you can’t get happy so you go out and you f+ck and fight
say it’s quite a night
then go home and it’s alright?
right?

mykel: nooooo!!!

girl: you can’t get happy so you go out and you pick a trick
have a c+nt or have a pr+ck
my she’s tight or my he’s thick
s+x is healthy, it’s not sick
right?

mykel:
nooooo!!!

girl: you can’t get happy so you go out and you protest refugees
bow the head and bend the knees
yes, a guilty conscience it helps ease
right?

mykel: … nooooo

girl: why?
chorus:
girl: we’re all boat people (4x)

both: we’re all boat people (8x)

1st verse:
myel: yes you’re in the 9th circle at 10:30 every night but you don’t last long
by 11:45, you’re on your knees in the back room with a stud
but n0body can question you or ask if maybe there’s some sort of problem
or if your life is missing something, because you just tell them:
“hey man, that’s my lifestyle!”
you have 7″ of lifestyle??
that’s your lifestyle??
and you think the boat people are desperate??

chorus:
both: we’re all boat people (16x)

mykel: yes, i see you leaning against the wall on st. mark’s place
you got on your dark sunglasses, you even wear them inside
you got your fingers tucked over the top of the belt
you practice lookin’ bored in front of the mirror at home
you got one foot propped up against the wall trying to look like lou reed
real cool!
some bum comes up to you and asks for a cigarette
he puts his arm on your shoulder, you jump!
you shout out at him:
both: don’t touch me, i’m new wave!!
don’t touch me, i’m new wave!!
don’t touch me, i’m new wave!!
don’t touch me, i’m new wave!!

chorus:
both: we’re all boat people (16x)

2nd verse:
mykel: yes, i see that you have scratches on the inside of your arm
where you tried to make like sid vicious with a broken light bulb
after all, you were only a bored teenager
and what did you have to look forward to?
except for being a bored 20+year+old + and then a bored 30+year+old
and not only would you be bored, but you’d be old and bored!
so why not end it all?
you never quite did it, though
but you kept trying
and the weird thing about it is you deserved to die!
and you think the boat people are bad off?
man, they wanna live!

chorus:
both: we’re all boat people (16x)
girl: we’re all boat people (16x)
mykel: boat people, boat people! (16x)
