Junglebook5 (You Learn Something New Every Day)

Junglebook6 (Bhangra)

Junglebook8 (Soon the Monsoon)

Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas.
Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas.
Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas.
Be careful where you’re lying get that lying dogs disease

Well maybe I’m just a dog, oh baby I’m just a dog
Well maybe I’m just a dog, just a dog 

She had the fleas.
She had to flee the sleaze.
That two-bit, flea-bit lawyer
who tried hard to destroy her soul, 
but she put herself in that hole
among the dogs with whom she lay down
and the fleas with whom she woke up

Wake up dog!
It’s time to go to work.
Hunting them sheep, herding them ducks,
guarding them building sites and parking lots. You’re 
Barking lots more
than you need to
But I don’t mean to 
tell you how to do your job cause I’m not a dog 

Well maybe I’m just a dog
Oh baby I’m just a dog.......

Maybe I’m a little lost dog just looking for a home
Maybe I’m a mean old dog just looking for a fight
Oh, maybe I’m, maybe I’m just a dog
Well maybe I’m just a dog
Maybe I’m just your dog

Won’t you lie down with me?
My sweet little doggy.
This mutt got no more fleas
than your finest pedigrees 
If you lie down with this dog
You’ll wake up with fleas like these
I ain’t no lying criming dog 
I ain’t no good at rhyming "dog"
The Brooklyn she’s in me

Down with Dogs

From Food On You's 2012 debut, swan song, and greatest hits compilation The Early Year, available on bandcamp.

Eat My Guitar

Where I live
folks are proud
that only American 
swastikas are allowed.

They're running it up the flagpole
down in the sticks
Someone's gotta always be an asshole
and fuck them hicks
then they brought it to my house on January 6
Brother, you got a lot of nerve
bringing that symbol in here

You never know 
when the weather could change, 
maybe never. It’s strange 
playing home on the range.
So far from the American west
The American past
This USian pest
Just cause nobody asked
gonna pester you
Persistently 
possibly imperceptibly
 
Strumming on the old banjo.
Dinah won’t you blow your old oboe
Drumming on the old drum kit.
The beat is okay 
but that cymbal is shit
You got a lot of nerve
Bringing that symbol in here

Give the statue of liberty my best
and the Oregon coast my most 
heartfelt congratulations 
and try being a beacon among nations.
Just try it.

Beacon (Liberty Enlightening the World 1)

Trumpet - Alex Richert
Flute, Alto Sax - Johanna Scheuer
Vocal Sample - Ella Jenkins, Wade in the Water (1960)

I want to spend
my money with a friend
What little that I have is yours
I have to try
every doorknob I go by
and now I’m running out of doors
as the stars come into view
The blue grows black
on other foreign shores.

i want to fight
the fascists every night
But most of them are far away.
I would like to kill 
the propaganda mill
It’s something that I say
I know I never will
but I understand
That land is still my land
Brooklyn to LA.

Another thousand miles
together all revolving and rotating
The mother of exiles
above the troubled waters she is waiting
wading

[Flute solo)
(trumpet solo.)

Another thousand miles
together all revolving and rotating
The mother of exiles
above the troubled waters she is 
waiting to hear 

A woody sound
Could tear the fascists down
He knew that they were bound to lose

A woody song
Has never hit me wrong
it’s something I can use
I wanna sing along

But this machine
Is all ultramarine
and other deeper blues
