That moment when you first listened to Jackass Penguins.
This month is the 20 year anniversary of our self titled album. I have been intending on creating a digital copy to mark this occasion, but it’s hard when you work and have a kid. I still plan on doing it, but it may be a little late for the actual anniversary.

Discography 1993-2014
Flat Earth Society is now the most downloaded album in the JP catalog
Thanks!

Listen/purchase: Hourglass by Jackass Penguins
Around this time, I was fascinated by Antonio Carlos Jobim (well I still am). With Beck’s Mutations album, I also got into Os Mutantes and Brazilian music in general. This was my attempt to create a bossa nova song. Really, it could make a great hard rock/metal song, but that wasn’t where I was at when this was recorded.
Lyrics:
Time is flowing like a van
Driving on the riverbed
Oscillating continuity
Life is like a radio
Turn the dial to what you know
Modulating conformityHourglass is running low
Time to reap what you have sowedI was walking by the sea
Past the driftwood and seaweed
Contemplating infinity
How can someone be content
When they’re all alone and yet
Surrounded with humanity?Hourglass is running low
Time to reap what you have sowedAnd I’m sitting here awake
How I long for yesterdayI was counting grains of sand
As they drifted off my hand
Answering the call of gravity
I was watching waves rehearse
How the foam inside dispersed
And the water flowed so pallidlyHourglass is running low
Time to reap what you have sowed
I think it’s about time to dust this track off. It’s one of the better songs in the last 15 years.
Free Download Mania
I never recorded my songs to get rich, just for the hell of it. Therefore, I have decided to make the entire JP catalog on bandcamp free. I don’t know why I didn’t start it out that way in the first place. Individual tracks may still have a minimum price, but the entire albums are free. You can always delete the crappy songs later (depending on the album, it could mean most of it). Thanks for listening.

Murphpicker murphpicker sticky and brown You better stop pickin or get outta town
You walk into the liquor store Your feet are tired and your ass is sore Your murph digs deeper and you are pissed You pick that murph with a double twist An old lady walkin from Club Med She saw you pickin and then she said
Murphpicker murphpicker sticky and brown You better stop pickin or get outta town
You walk into the liquor store Your murph is back but you try to ignore You go and get a root beer float Your murph is juicy and you start to bloat The cup is bad and it starts to leak You put your hand on a butt cheek Your hand is ready and you can’t resist You pick that murph with a triple twist The owner says “Hey bitch” and your face turns red He flips you off here’s what he said
Murphpicker murphpicker sticky and brown You better stop pickin or get outta town
Murphpickin is very wrong So don’t pick that murph or get off my turf
I eat my corn I’m big and strong I eat my corn I smoke my bong I eat my corn I’m big and strong I eat my corn I sing my song
Corn Her whole life is made of corn She reads magazines of porn Loaded gun pointed to her thick blond head she would rather read instead her small body full of lead she likes being dead
Pandemonia Going there Pandemonia Shave my hair
Dead grove of trees Fall on me please Dead grove of trees Down on my knees
Pandemonia Going there Pandemonia Shave my hair Pandemonia I’m not strange Pandemonia Time for a change
Empty hotel Sulfuric smell Empty hotel Going to hell
Pandemonia Going there Pandemonia Shave my hair Pandemonia I’m not strange Pandemonia Time for a change Pandemonia Going there Pandemonia I’m not scared Pandemonia Happy land Pandemonia Take my hand Take my hand Take my land
Stone time Riverside Gotta be Stone time
By the dirt hill He signs his will To his dead son His life is done He crawls into his tomb That’s all
Stone time Riverside Gotta be Stone time Get me Stone cold Gonna be so fucking cold Stone time
Yes I am fucking Yes I am sucking I am in you Yes I am fucking you
Yes I am, I am so abused, I am And you are, you are such a star, you are and you have orgasm, you do
You’re so light You’re so tight In the night You fit me like a glove
Yes I am fucking Yes I am sucking I am in you Yes I am fucking you
You fit me like a glove I fit you like a glove
He’s a slob in ’94 Wants to eat a little more
He does wait all of his day ’til the mailman comes He doesn’t stay Now he is old and quiet Doesn’t sleep anymore or try a diet
He’s a slob in ’94 Wants to eat a little more
He watches his big screen all day through He is a slob His name is Lou Well how ya doin I’m doing fine Why don’cha come outside into the sunshine?
You’re a slob, yes you are Lou. Why don’cha go on a diet? No? Then fuck you. Amongst all this cuss I wasn’t driving too well and hit a bus from the County Jail
He died that night in intensive care No one visited Lou Not one person was there He was embalmed and buried at high noon The church bells rung to the famous tune
He’s a slob in ’94 Wants to eat a little more Slob in ’94
A mosh pit marriage a tired friend a scared little carriage a blind-corner bend the honeymoon’s over the reception’s fed the honeymoon’s over the couple dead I’ll bet you’re stoned right now
and if you want me call me I’ve been waiting by the phone and if you want me call me I’ve been waiting all alone for you
I am your ultra-loyal ‘mirer I am your super-Rolaid friend and if you ever want to talk to me talk to me, baby or if you ever need a friend
you don’t have my number
oh you think it’s my problem are you dumb you think I’m stupid you think I’m numb when God is here she’ll break your mirror the bad luck borne you’ll pay in years
7 years in hell that’s swell 7 years in hell that’s swell
I can’t go do everything I can’t live an old routine
Ramble on You know I’ve got to find the perfect song I know it shouldn’t couldn’t take me long You can’t prove me sue me screw me Snoopy long Live on ‘cause time’s the only thing that will run me out The only thing, the thing that this song’s about I only wish that it didn’t have to shout oh yeah I can’t go do everything I can’t live an old routine
Birds they fly up in the sky They fly ever so high They never ever die I’ve never seen one lie They’re louder when they chirp As happy as a smurf are they, all day
Birds do they die? Is it at the end of their small lives? Do they cry but nothing’s heard? When they die, they’re just a bird.
Birds they fly up in the sky They fly ever so high They never ever die I’ve never seen one lie They’re louder when they chirp As happy as a smurf I’ve never seen one dead Or sleeping in a bed Or hear them when they burp Or dress like Wyatt Earp They’re louder when they chirp As happy as a smurf are they All day
Let me go away
One and one is two One and one is three Who you talking to Can’t see me I despise the time Nothing here is mine Every girl is fine As the starry, starry skies
Deification of defecation
Petrified Mesmerized Androgyne In your eyes Here’s your prize From my thighs Brown with flies Try it for size
Deification of defecation
I ain’t tellin no shit You just love my shit
Abortion clinic shootout, yeah yeah yeah Jesus was a Baptist, yeah yeah yeah
Wet wet surfboards in the sand, yeah Hot chicks sleeping with a tan, yeah Surfboards for everyone
Driving down the coast looking for more honeys Surfboards in the sand When we find a nude beach with Playboy bunnies Surfboards in the sand Well I’ve travelled the land, been around the world But I never fucked that many surfer girls
*Lyrics by M. Watson
And all I want is you to see that I’m a possibility And all I want is you to think that I’m a possibility
And I watch you when you breathe Your breasts move they bounce and heave When you smile I see your teeth I wonder what you think of me
She told me you like me Funny how you see me I’ve never known this
and I am back again Who knows how long I’ll stay? and I am back again Who cares anyway?
Take a laxative You know I’m full of shit and I take a laxative cause I’m full of shit
Cause I’m good Cause I’m strong Cause I’ve got to move along I’ve got a problem x3 I do
I’ve got a problem It’s got to do with you I’ve got a problem It’s got to do with all of you
and I will be strong It’s not time to be weak It’s time to buzz off and fight the demons within Cause I’m the one Who will get through this I will get proper and live in the bliss I’m the one Who wants you For the rest of my life and your life too I’ve got a problem It won’t take long you, you
and I will be strong x2 got to carry on Not time to whine Lame alibis I’ve got to get through this somehow x2 Somehow special Better than all the rest They put you through the test and you made it through Cause we beat it
and I wish you’d come again did you ever wake up dead? so who painted heaven white? cannot see because the light
and I heard that you were gone so I learn to carry on every second there’s a death decompose, there’s nothing left
is it me, is it you have to lie to see the truth is it us, is it them dig thru trash to find a gem dust to dust, lust to death skeletons and rotten flesh
If you want to I can take you a million miles away If you want to I can take you in my U.F.O.
You’re my lover you’re my brother Mother Nature’s out to lunch You’re my lover there’s no other You’re the rum inside my punch
If you want to I can take you a billion miles away If you want to I can take you in my U.F.O.
Sunshine on the sand Smiles across the land Let me hold your hand Let me hold your hand
Hey You have such beautiful ways Like circumpuscular rays I dot my i’s and my j’s
Southern California
Hey Look at those beautiful waves They push and pull just like slaves They shine like Rutherford Hayes Hey
Give a dollar to your friend If it’s money you need to lend You’ll feel hollow in the end It’s your heart you need to mend
Her gaze stops me every time Instead I act so civilized Imagine that I dream of sleeping in my bed I’m just living in my head What a gas
When you’re feeling down and blue Close your eyes and count to 2 You know what you’ve got to do Take a trip to Malibu
I cannot hear her voice aloud I see it in a puffy cloud Imagine that Songs of angels fill my day When she looks across my way What a gas
I hope she looks across my way I hope she doesn’t think I’m gay Or some pervert who will say “I will knock you up someday" Give a dollar to your friend If it’s money you need to lend You’ll feel hollow in the end It’s your heart you need to mend Dumb angel Dumb angel Dumb angel on my tracks
Plowin down all the hills and knolls Grade it flat, now it feels like home Feels like home
The land goes on forever Your job is safe with me Nature begs for an acre Go extinct
All those signs are phony We’re building for a cause That cause is money Watch ’em fall Clear the way for congested sprawl Nowhere to tag so you build a wall
silver queen it’s not like in dreams but things are still misunderstood fantasy, like your liberty remains so far from Hollywood
transfixed the size of your tits I sit alone thinking of you bad trips reality clicks no chicks have been as pretty as you
the desert lies beyond with dust instead of fog the engine’s turning on two hours, we’ll be gone
Yeah Anybody says anybody anybody says
Anybody says that I’m going to Vostok Rabbits on the shore and I’m going away Anybody says that I’m going to chicken Anybody says that I’m going to Nome Anybody says that I’m going to liver Anybody in the anybody in the
Wah ding iffa zhanas channing body Sprinkle fucking chunkies and I’m talking bout meatballs Anybody says that I’m banning away And I’m doing it on purpose every single fucking day
Everybody says Everybody says Everybody says Everybody’s on the topic, God even says Topic of the day is everybody says Anybody in the fucking room And I’m talking about you And I’m talking about you
And I’m talking about anybody I’m talking about all the motherfucking people in the fucking room and I’m talking to you and I’m talking to every fucking body in the room and I am away and I am away and I am going all the way on fucking today yeah yeah yeah yeah it’s the topic of the day
eat my shit and you’ll fuckin die
I saw you….in the rain
I wanna let you know that….outer space can be so dim we just might lose life or limb we might not see Yuma again ginseng, goldenseal, phen phen
It doesn’t get any gooder
That day
The river has the current That push you down, away The sea it pulls the river and all the rocks with age make the sand that greets you when you are in the bay the sea it eats the river the tides move day to day
That way

Listen/purchase: George and the Space People by Jackass Penguins
This song was originally envisioned to have more layers to it. There may still be a version somewhere with multiple clarinet overdubs, but our recording equipment was so crappy that it sounded terrible. This is just the base track, and it was ultimately included on the Mental Holiday album. The song is about the legendary George Van Tassel who claimed to be visited by aliens and rode a flying saucer. He built the Integratron himself, but died before it could be completely finished. More recently, the building was used for the music video for “Honestly” by Zwan.
Lyrics:
Gather ‘round the Integratron
Summon all to Giant Rock
Take a ride inside their ship
George and the Space People trip
Deep in thought George and his team
Find ways to live out their dream
Profound truth, inquiring minds
If it benefits mankind
Religion and science merged
Vibratory auras purged
Under stars and hellish heat
Landers opens, Mammons greet
If indeed our faith is wrong
At least it made a new song
