Chris Haise Band - Shock and Awe Lyrics

Shock and awe what a way to go
I liked it better when the news moved slow
Table manners and empty Frigidaire's
Sitting in chintz arm chairs
Shock and awe what a tempting offer
A madman with his fist in the coffer
Gotta figure it out gotta do it soon
But we only get nine people in a room
Mama Needs a new dress
Now daddy's gotta find a new job
He'll do what he's gotta just short of robbing
Let the good lord sort the rest
Shock and awe, I ain't adjusted
I've been running a fever I can't be trusted
Gotta an old needle and some couple LP's
Gonna put em on and find me sleep
Shock and awe and an empty block
Gotta wipe your ass with what they got in stock
They might have more one town over
But you'll never get it over the border
Mama Needs a new dress
Now daddy's gotta find a new job
He'll do what he's gotta just short of robbing
Let the good lord sort the rest
Shock and awe why do we stay here
Saving up now so you can spend it later
When we smash the hive to steal a little honey
Don't bother trying to follow the money
Mama Needs a new dress
Now daddy's gotta find a new job
He'll do what he's gotta just short of robbing
Let the good lord sort the rest
He'll do what he's gotta just short of robbing
Let the good lord sort the rest
