Reprobates Resume Lyrics

Blessed be the doctor and blessed be the nurse.
Blessed be the coachman who put me in the hearse.
Blessed be the blessings and blessed be the curse.

Rattled from the sediment
Old bones around the settlement.
Tell who passed out the medicine
The dose was much too strong.

He goes to bed bereft and berated
and rests his head in the hands of the over rated.
Sweating bullets in the faculty lounge,
sensing treason they’re not waiting around;
On the first bus out of town
they’re playing movies that they’ve already seen.

The jewelry advances as the gums recede,
the devil goes out dancing on the angels perceived needs, please go easy on me.

Cheap sex with a discount broker-
Cop’s walkie-talkie squawks breaker-breaker,
“We got to take her down to the station
she says that that broker broke her.”

Read the text at the ticker tape parade-
The subtext is that someone’s getting paid off.
Check the checks at the ticker tape parade-
Pay stubs of the people who’ve been laid off.

Insurance can’t cover what the world’s exposed-
Open nerves. Touching toes to stretch,
the A.C. made us retch.
Can you conceive of working for the
emperor’s new clothes?

Les Savy Sav is so fucking amazing. It took me a while to get into this song, but it's finally got me addicted. I love the guitar in the background of the "cheap sex...laid off" part, and right after "laid off" it becomes the focus, when they say "wahoo" and I'm totally rambling, but it's awesome. These lyrics are so cool. And clever.

I believe it's

Blessed be the doctor, blessed be the nurse Blessed be the coachman who took us in the herse Blessed be the blessing and blessed be the curse

Paddle from the sediment All those around the settlement Dilute themselves in medicine The dose was much too strong!

He goes to bed, bereft and berated And rests his head in the hands of the overrated.

Woo-Woo

Sweating bullets in the faculty lounge Says it's treason and not waiting around On the first bus out of town Playing movies that we've already seen

The chill in the abyss as the gums receed The devil does a dance on the edge of the sea needs

Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me!

Cheap sex with a discount broker Cops, walkie-talkie squash, breaker breaker, We got to take her down to the station She says that that broker broke her

Read the text at the ticker-tate parade The sub-text is that someone's getting paid off Check the checks at the ticker-tate parade Pay stubs of the people who've been laid off

Woo-Woo

Inssurance can't count but the world's exposed Open nerves, times they told us to stretch The A/C made us RETCH

Can you concieve us Working for the Emperors new clothes

I have the actual sleeve lyrics right here, mind if I correct a few mistakes?

My corrections are under each paragraph in parantheses.

Blessed be the doctor, blessed be the nurse Blessed be the coachman who took us in the herse Blessed be the blessing and blessed be the curse (herse = hearse blessing = blessings)
