Jason's Head Lyrics
ason said he's gonna get you in the bed
But when he does in the morning you'll be dead
Jason can be a friend to the end
She said "Jason close your
eyes and count to ten"
I think it's obvious
Jason got real pissed
About all the guys she kissed
We're goin' down, down, down to the ditch
Where she said she hid
What's left of Jason's head
She was out with a guy in her
backyard getting high
Jason said he'd drop by
He came over for a swim, he
was looking mighty trim
A shot of jealousy stabbed him
And I think it's obvious
Jason got real pissed
About all the guys she kissed
We're goin' down, down, down to the ditch
Where she said she hid
What's left of Jason's head
What's left of Jason's head [x2]
When you wake up with the sun
Your whole world will be undone
Like a bullet in a gun
You'll be waiting to be sprung
Jason's head will not be found
Keep it buried in the ground
Remember, stick to your plan
Wipe the blood off of your hand
But when he does in the morning you'll be dead
Jason can be a friend to the end
She said "Jason close your
eyes and count to ten"
Jason got real pissed
About all the guys she kissed
Where she said she hid
What's left of Jason's head
backyard getting high
Jason said he'd drop by
He came over for a swim, he
was looking mighty trim
A shot of jealousy stabbed him
Jason got real pissed
About all the guys she kissed
Where she said she hid
What's left of Jason's head
Your whole world will be undone
Like a bullet in a gun
You'll be waiting to be sprung
Keep it buried in the ground
Remember, stick to your plan
Wipe the blood off of your hand

one of the more disturbing songs by the great DM. and thats why i love them. first few times i hear the song i really didnt pay attention to the lyrics, but then i thought i heard something pretty fucked up: "where she hid, whats left of jason's head" so after listening it a bunch of times, i think the story is pretty self explainitory. jason was a jealous bastard, that finally got killed by his junky girlfriend. and for some reason she decapitated him, and hid his head (what's left of it) in a ditch.
Well... hard song for somebody who knows nothing about the Dead Milkmen, admitted- The first vinyl I bought in 87, I think.. Gospel, IMHO... it does describe a whorish betrayal, and resultant demise of the protagonist, admittedly- but WHY did Jason let his head be the subject of the song? He already knew what was coming... he can be your friend till the end- but he got pissed bout all the guys she kissed- She stabbed him... and we'll go down to the ditch to get what's left of Jason's head... She knew he'd drop by- just needed the out of the relationship, and could do nothing but bury him in a shallow grave- that's jealousy's end? When you wake up with the sun Your whole world will be undone Like a bullet in a gun You'll be waiting to be sprung
Jason's head will not be found Keep it buried in the ground Remember, stick to your plan Wipe the blood off of your hand
-so despite burying our protagonist, she'll have to live with the fallout
Check out : "Stewart", "Dean's dream", "2 feet off the ground", KKsuck2 , I Hear Your Name. ..they'll relieve you of juxtaposed psychosese, and make you a DM junkie forever... God knows I am, and mine has no Methodist colouring book to taunt me with, even :-P
I always thought it was about a girl murdering her creepy friend Jason because he was jealous and threatened her or something. "Jason said he's gonna get you into bed but when he does in the morning you'll be dead." That sounds like a threat.
