Keep It Greasey
Lyrics
Act II
SCENE THIRTEEN
KEEP IT GREASEY
(JOE anoints himself as he sings.)
JOE:
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
MANX:
Roll it over 'n' grease it down
I'll drive you through the heart of town
JOE:
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy<brr>
MANX:
Roll it over 'n' grease it down
I'll drive you through the heart of town
(JOE, who is still wearing his housewife costume from when he first picked up SY BORG in The Closet, adjusts his little apron to a more advantageous position and sings.)
JOE:
Hey, the good women, they sure has it tough
The good men, well there ain't enough
All the good girls are lookin' all the time
Good men is something that they can't find
'Cause if they find one miraculously
They try to be as lovin' as they can be
If they find one and let him go
Chances are they might not ever find one no mo'
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
MANX:
Roll it over 'n' grease it down
I'll drive you through the heart of town
JOE:
A good lovin' man is hardest to find
A good women needs to ease her mind
And I know a few that need to ease it behind
All y'gotta do is grease it down 'n' everything is fine
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
MANX:
Roll it over 'n' grease it down
I'll drive you through the heart of town
JOE:
A girl don't need no fancy grease
To get herself some rump release
Any kind of lube'll do
Maybe from another part of you
Lube from the North
Lube from the South
Take a little slobber
From the side of your mouth
Roll it over
Grease it down
Here come that crazy screamin' sound
(Ahhh-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ahhh! Ooohh-ooohh!!)
JOE:
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy
Roll it over 'n' grease it down, down, down...
Grease it down
Oh no! Here comes that screamin' sound again...
(And sure enough the walls of the prison did reverberate with all sorts of screamin' sounds as lawyers and execs and promo personages all decide to jump on JOE for a spectacular high speed gang-bang leading to…)
