lyrics

SHARKEY’S MACHINE

Fuck you, Edith Piaf
I got regrets by the score
Like the time I dropped my drawers
For that one jaw-dropping whore.
She forgot to torch the evidence
And didn’t delete the files
Now her old man’s on my tail
And he’s eating up the miles.

Bitch is hitched to an ass-hat
Psympleton Psycho Pseth
So dense he makes his own gravity
Says the capitol of France is F.
She’s hotter than Satan’s butt-plug
And dirty and obscene
I came like Niagara
In Sharkey’s machine.

CHORUS #1:
Sharkey’s machine, Sharkey’s machine
Give me the car keys to Sharkey’s machine
Between me and freedom is a cavernous ravine
Give me hope and a bag of dope and Sharkey’s machine.

Making something out of nothing
A kiss ain’t just a kiss
Must a lifetime of pain cost me
One sinful night of bliss?
Heavenly free love
Comes at a hell of a price
Maybe ‘Go fuck yourself’
Is practical advice.

He’s got muscles on his muscles
Has Psympleton Psycho Pseth
He’s the meanest recidivist
Who ever punched out breath.
Get a sick note from my mama
And tell it to the marines
Get behind a wig
In Sharkey’s machine.

CHORUS #2:
Sharkey’s machine, Sharkey’s machine
Give me the car keys to Sharkey’s machine
Lady Luck’s kicked me in the nuts and they’re wedged up my spleen
But I’m singing soprano in Sharkey’s machine.

Sharkey’s machine, Sharkey’s machine
Give me the car keys to Sharkey’s machine
Lady Luck kicked me in the nuts and they’re wedged up my spleen
But I got cash in the bank, gas in the tank and Sharkey’s machine.
