San Bruno Lyrics
Mama lost her fuckin’ head just the other day
When a punk discovered that Daddy’s turning gay (?)
She leaned against the toilet bowl, her head against the gun
Then she pulled the trigger and her brain fell in the tub
Fell in the tub now!
CHORUS:
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?
He was on the run, he was hiding from the cops
He had an IQ of 17, 21 at tops
But his dumb luck would soon run out, his destiny quite jaded
Now he’s sniffin’ sluts (?) so now his asshole’s violated
Alright now!
CHORUS
She always got her dope for free, she had a certain charm
She used to do the laundry with a needle in her arm
But she forgot to take her pills, now here’s the fuckin’ freaks (?)
She couldn’t use a ‘haler (?), now her baby’s got the shakes
CHORUS (x2)
When a punk discovered that Daddy’s turning gay (?)
She leaned against the toilet bowl, her head against the gun
Then she pulled the trigger and her brain fell in the tub
Fell in the tub now!
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?
He had an IQ of 17, 21 at tops
But his dumb luck would soon run out, his destiny quite jaded
Now he’s sniffin’ sluts (?) so now his asshole’s violated
Alright now!
She used to do the laundry with a needle in her arm
But she forgot to take her pills, now here’s the fuckin’ freaks (?)
She couldn’t use a ‘haler (?), now her baby’s got the shakes
