Son Of Dick Lyrics

Well it's Dick's son that has his CD's in neat lines
and a dad that reads every sign and says, "I only drive 62.5"
Well I don't really mind his coordinated closet or his folded clothes
but who left the bullet in the mashed potatoes?
Well why's everybody sweating me because I go to Dairy Queen
Why's everybody sweating me because I'm the son of Dick Ramsbee
His dad boils water by time and measures sugar by the line
and tours the country in a winnebago
and his dad is an anal guy and has a roomate stalked by the FBI
"Who put the shotgun underneath the sofa?"
..Hal put the shotgun underneath the sofa
I'm the son of Dick Ramsbee.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

this was poste on the LTJ website

"A few notes from the archive: This is the first time these lyrics are available, not for any reason but they're just one big inside joke and we honestly needed to listen to the song a hundred times or so to jump start the memory process. It was about our friend that was/is not only crazy neat but had/has a dad that rivaled him for the crown of most anal. Oh yeah, the "bullet.." and "shotgun.." part refers to a gun toting, flag waving roomate of our friend, his penchant for leaving live rounds of ammunition everywhere and loaded guns in "strategic" but random spots around their shared apartment. "

This song is hilariously random. Does it actually mean anything at all?
