Linda Blair

Lyrics

Seat 2C, Oslo to Warsaw, Norwegian Air
 It's 9 o'clock in the morning and I'm yawning
 Next to a girl with perky beautiful long blonde hair
 She's playing a game on her phone and chewing on her Danish
 The girl behind me has a demonic cough
 She sounds like Linda Blair in The Exorcist
 "Blaaaaagh! Blaaaaagh! Blaaaaagh! Blaaaaagh! Blaaaaagh! Blaaaaagh!"
 I hope it's just a common cold and nothing serious
 If she's got a serious medical condition, I hope the lord blesses her
 Last time I played Warsaw, I was with Justin from Godflesh
 I couldn't pronounce the name of the town or the venue
 But we headlined a metal fest
 The names of the other bands I didn't know
 But I do remember the aggressive sound of their names
 Cryptdeath Cult Kill Baby Motherfuck Lord Kill Dogs Decapitated
 "We're a very scary band, raaagh! We're a very scary band, raaagh!
 We're a very scary band, raaagh!
 We have sleeve tattoos and neck tattoos
 And we're a very, raaagh! scary band"
 I don't know much about Poland,
 other than Andrew Golota's boxing style
 He held his left jab out like a
 kitten trying to paw a bare sheet out to dry
 Making his glass chin a very easy target to find
 He quit after round two of Mike Tyson
 He was on his ass, his old eyes all bulging with fright
 And Lennox Lewis dropped him in round one
 He looked like a scared kid being knocked on his ass by his daddy
 When his daddy came home drunk
 But I have a soft spot for Andrew
 because the great fighters, he never dodged
 And I thought it was mean how his fans pelted him with garbage
 On his walkout after he lost to Mike Tyson
 Facing Tyson was a very brave thing to do, though he was overmatched
 I found the audience's behavior after the fight disgraceful and rude
 No matter the flaws in local fighters, show them love and support
 Take the high road towards Andrew Golota, be a good sport
 And that Tyson fight, Golota's brains might have become unglued
 To be honest, I don't have a clue
 But those people who throwing things at him on his way out
 Were despicable and bullying and its worst
 He was fighting Mike Tyson and representing your country
 And his fans added humiliation and more hurt to his hurt
 And yeah, when Lennox dropped him in round one
 I felt an even stronger connection with Andrew Golota
 He went out there so determined, but like a lamb he got slaughtered
 His weakness was that awkward footwork and that clumsy lead left
 And those stupid little bulls, Tourettic bull
 A legendary, he was just simply overmatched
 He is imperfect, as we all are
 Let's face it, we're all scared little girls and boys
 So everyone right now, for Andrew Golota, make some fucking noise
 So everybody right now, for Andrew Golota, make some fucking noise
 So everybody right now, for Andrew Golota, make some fucking noise
 Other than Golota, I don't know much about Poland
 I guess my ancestry is here, and I guess that's saying something
 I gotta admit, I never looked too deeply into it
 Well this is the truth,
 before my name became Kozelek it was actually Koziołek
 One time I played the OFF Festival
 in the summer, I played a seated venue
 And a woman cooked for me Italian food and it was wonderful
 And I've been to Italy more times than I can ever count
 And that Polish woman cooked the best Italian meal I ever had
 And that's no fucking joke
 Then I shared a taxi to the airport
 with Owen Ashworth and the band Wire
 I said, "Owen, did you ever notice how Poland looks like Ohio?"
 He said, "Yeah, it does" and that's all he said
 Owen Ashworth is a great songwriter from
 Chicago, Illinois if you never heard of him
 Now everyone should show gratitude for
 all the beautiful things in this world
 There are cornfields along the road
 and the meals the kind people cook for us
 There are bands who come to our
 countries who play beautiful music for us
 There are fans who come to our shows and pay money to listen to us
 We're in this life once, so let's absorb what's around it
 And not make a fuss over the little things
 We may live to be old or tomorrow we might get hit by a bus
 I got a lot of love for all people
 I got a lot of love, I got a lot of love, I got a lot of love
 I got a lot of love for the imperfect low-blowing Andrew Golota
 I got a lot of love for you, all you in Warsaw
 If I had to be honest, there's only one thing that I don't love at all
 It's the music of Steely Dan, it makes my fucking skin crawl
 Well if I had to be honest,
 there's also one other thing that I don't love at all
 It's the music of the fucking Eagles
 That makes me wanna put my fist through the fucking wall
 Now let's sing about the songs we love very much
 Now let's sing about the songs we love very much
 Neil Young's "Harvest Moon" and "After the Gold Rush"
 Now let's sing a song that I, we all know and love very, very much
 ZZ Top, "I Ain't Asking For Much"
 Now let's sing a song by Queen, that I love very much
 "I just need somebody to love, find me somebody to love
 Find me somebody to love,
 find me somebody to love, find me somebody to--"
 Now let's sing a song that everybody loves by Led Zeppelin
 "A whole lotta love, got a lotta love, got a whole lotta love
 I got a lotta love, I got a whole lotta love, baby, baby
 Got a whole lotta love, ooh baby, baby, got a whole lotta love
 Got a whole lotta love, ooh baby, baby, got a whole lotta love
 Got a whole lotta love, baby, baby, got a whole lotta love
 I got a whole lotta love, baby, baby, baby, got a whole lotta love"
 Now we're gonna sing one of my songs that I know you all love
 It's from my album Benji, it's from my mom
 And it's called "I Can't Live Without My Mother's Love"
