2002-07-18 | GRIDLOCK AT THE OASIS

I think this is a song I wrote while I was in Oregon, and I had the hi-jinx of the Gallagher Bros. in mind.

"LIAM & NOELS COMEDY HOUR (MARMALADE BOOGIE WOOGIE)"

Welcome to the comedy hour at the Oasis

Our host for the evening isn't quite clear (or here)

We got one guy here, I'm not sure what his name is

He has an accent, and keeps ranting something about "queers"

His brother is pretty cool, sometimes. But, I don't see him

He must be fighting with the other guy

Either that or-oh I think his name is Liam

And "he", his name is Noel, there he goes, say "hi"

Sometimes they make music with each other

Sometimes they're out of tune

Sometimes they abuse their relationship as brothers

Sometimes they destroy the room

Don't take it personal when they don't make eye contact

They can't even stand each others presence

Don't call the cops when these animals attack

To them, the "fuzz" are a bunch of peasants

If they seem bored, don't let them fool you

They're laughing on the inside (to the bank)

They would never do anything to jeopardize their ill repute

They're in the same class as Al, Dave and Hank

To show you a soft side would be a mistake

Career suicide in the truest sense

Character damaging, disgrace in the making

Playing the fool keeps it loose, being true makes it tense

Being yourself isn't always the best thing to be

Especially when everyone hates you

Hating yourself doesn't make much sense to me

Somebody else has got to disgrace you

It's a test to make you stronger in time

For someone to show you the worst

Your enemy could be your partner in crime

You're best friend could be a curse
