lyrics

Like a cockaroach, moving through the office building

In the town that dreaded sundown, like a cockaroach

Making all the pretty women screamin’

In the town that dreaded sundown, like a cockaroach



Like a cockaroach, in and out of toilets swimmin’

In the human waste and refuse, grinnin’, like a cockaroach

Crushed by the weight of souls,

El Sol, shoe soles, just like a cocka-cocka-cockaroach



Like a cockaroach, wigglin’ on the ceiling, dancin’

Watching people put their shoes and pants on

Crushed by the weight of the fold,

Fold, you fold, just like a cocka-cocka-cockaroach



Slippin’ out of, in, in, and out of

Slippin’ out of, in, in, and out of

Slippin’ out of, in and all around the toes

Slippin’ out and crossing over manifold

Slippin’ out of, in, in, and out of

Slippin’ out and kissin’ all around the toes



Like a cockaroach, moving through the office building

In the town that dreaded sundown, like a cockaroach

Making all the pretty women screamin’

In the town that dreaded sundown, like a cockaroach



Like a cockaroach, in and out of toilets swimmin’

In the human waste and refuse, grinnin’, like a cockaroach

Crushed by the weight of souls,

El Sol, shoe soles, just like a cocka-cocka-cockaroach



Slippin’ out of, in, in, and out of

Slippin’ out of, in, in, and out of

Slippin’ out of, in and all around the toes

Slippin’ out and crossing over manifold

Slippin’ out of, in, in, and out of

Slippin’ out and kissin’ all around the toes

about

Lounge on Fire image

Lounge on Fire

A 7-deep battalion with a horn section, fused from the ashes of indie rock, seductive soul, and psychedelic funk, Lounge on Fire is a cacophony of formidable freaks. Rapid and percussive vocals often combine with dark and hypnotic grooves reinforcing a boisterously brassy fanfare to create a unique coalescence of rock, soul, jazz, Latin, disco, hip hop, and funk. ... more
