1.	Baddum Woah 02:34	lyrics	buy track
One day One day I was walking by Seattle coffee shops when I saw a guy playing guitar, he could pick those strings I walked up to him and started to sing Baddum hedum fadum haba daba woah (This is a song from the nineties) Hadum bedum fadum lada bada woah (It's completely nonsense) Badum bedum fadum yabba dabba doo (That was from The Flintstones) Hadum bedum fadum lada baddum woah We made a two man band, called it Flannel Clothes We were on the road, they were decent shows Soon we found a cat who bang a drum So we changed our name to the Denim Bums, and sang Gotta getta lotta minced ricotta to put on top'a (A plate of spaghetti) Shoulda said lasagna, it woulda sounded smarta (Now we're on to the bridge) And eventually we hired child actor Macaulay Culkin to join our band playing the tambourine Then eventually we found out it wasn't Macaulay Culkin, so we let some random kid play tambourine Obligatory nineties song rap verse Make noise if you wanna hear me rap worse Okay, let me get ready for it -nope Caravan eggplant watermelon pants Do you believe in Santa? (He watches you sleeping) Robert Dinero in a gyro, that's my hero (He's watching you Faulker) Woah, this is my real voice, even when I'm talking (He talks in his sleep too) Thank you for listening, we are the Denim Bums featuring child-actor Macaulay Culkin.
2.	Blink 183 00:22	lyrics	buy track
I know you think you’re really freaking cool But guess what? You’re the bomb! I had a good time at the movies And I french kissed with your mom I like to tease you when we’re fighting But the timing might be bad I ate a hotdog at a ballpark Then I made love with your dad
3.	Raging About Machinery 01:08	lyrics	buy track
Salted pretzels Carry-on luggage Tolkien fan-fic Another book published Never sleep Sipping serpentine sodas Squash the quail Retreat pizza quotas No-slip Japanese vending machine Whiplash cadabra, if you know what I mean I got sick kicks Still ill afraid of Nintendos We’re raging 'bout machinery Get ready for flamenco
4.	Quiet Verses, Loud Chorus 01:12	lyrics	buy track
I hope you brought plugs for your ears My loud chorus will bring you tears You won't expect it when it comes This song will hot carl your ear drums But still you've got to keep it cranked The verse is soft, the lyrics dank But then the volume starts to build And we just yell and yell and yell Yelling right now I'm loud right now Mom's ignoring Look at me dad Quiet verses Loud chorus I wear flannel Yelling louder - yeah
5.	I Wrote This Song On Drugs 02:27	lyrics	buy track
There aren't a lot of things To be found in this world That could make me turn around When I've got my eyes on the sky There's no holding me down Feeling monsoons of love Living rivers of rainbows and oceans of fairytale dreams Scream if you're part of the team (screams) If you see your shadow in the street, don't move your feet Give it oh so many hugs Take these words to heart, I wrote this song on drugs I had a dream, and in this dream, I was asleep But sleeping me, had zero dreams And my bed was made of marshmallow cream When you see a blade of grass and look up close You'll notice things that weren't before A little house with a little door Can I fit inside, well I'm just not sure Wanting to learn the language of the bugs Let these words change your entire life Take these words to heart, I wrote this song on drugs Get a face tattoo, you heard this song on drugs Name your child this, you wrote that kid on drugs Take these words to heart, I wrote this song on drugs

about

On May 15, 1995, The Denim Bums released their debut album "We Are The". The record was banned before it ever hit stores, with the U.S. government citing "gnarly guitar shredding and radical drum pounding" as reasons for this extreme level of censorship. Fifteen years later, and entirely due to the fact that the lead singer just discovered the internet this week, that album is finally available to the public.
