Album: Stage Struck
Brute Force and Ignorance,
Just hit town,
Looking like survivors,
From the Lost and Found
Brute Force and Ignorance,
Have come to play,
A one-night stand at eight o'clock,
Then they'll be on their way
This old town's exploding,
And the mayor's uptight,
He'd like to make it to the show,
But he knows it's not his night
He's got to be beholding,
To his legal spouse,
But she's put the thumbscrews on him,
And snuck out of the house
There she goes
The picture on the poster,
Raised an eyebrow or two,
At fifty-five to seven,
Lord, you should've seen the queue
City slick and country hick,
They came one and all,
The traffic-light girl and the downhome kids,
Assembled in the hall
Brute Force and Ignorance,
Yes, that's the name,
The young folks gonna miss them,
Now they've gone away
Well, the show got so crazy,
Today they took the billboard down,
I'll never forget the scene last night,
When the band was escorted out of town
This little town's back in slow motion,
I'm sad to say,
After the confusion,
It'll never be the same
Well, I took a walk down Main Street,
Just to pass the time,
And I could hear that music,
Still rolling through my mind
Brute Force and Ignorance,
They sure hit town,
And if you want to find them, buddy,
They're down at the Lost and Found
