I've been to hell. I spell it, I spell it DMV
Anyone that's been there knows precisely what I mean
Stood there and I've waited and choked back the urge to scream
And if I had my druthers I'd screw a chimpanzee-call it pointless

When I need relief I spell it THC
perhaps you may know vaguely what I mean
I sit back and smoke away huge chunks of memory
As I slowly inflict upon myself a full lobotomy-call it pointless

Barbecues, tea kettles, gobs of axle grease
There comes a time for every man to sail the seas of cheese
Now, life's a bowl of bagel dogs, but there are unpleasantries
Cold toilet seats, dentist chairs and trips to DMV-call it pointless

I've been to hell. I spell it, I spell it DMV
Anyone that's been there knows precisely what I mean
I've stood in line and waited near an hour and fifteen
And if I had my druthers I'd screw that chimpanzee-call it pointless

    bashme1, it is unfair to genralize a band that managed to maintain originality as well as primus does, by saying that all of their songs were influenced be the same muse. fuck you. this song is about the department of motor vehicles amongst other time consuming pointless tasks.

    furthermore, theheckler348, i refuse to acknowledge the tapping interlude as a bass solo, its merely just a segue section leading to a guitar solo were Les stretches out and ad libs the rhythms. there is not strumming, and i think it has no right to blow anyone away.
