lyrics

Grandpa Was A Spaceman

My grandpa was a spaceman
and a herb junkie
he didn't ride the rails
hoboing the big country
he didn't work hard in his prime
he was a suburban rebel kind
my grandpa worked a porn store
in Moose Jaw

My grandpa read of Huxley
and he hung out with whores
hells little angels
knocked on my granddaddy's door
and my daddy came to be
admidst chaos and treachery
rooting around for roaches
with my granddaddy.

When I was young
the teacher would call to me
and say, "Hey, son!
Tell the class - who's your granddaddy!"

My grandpa was a spaceman
and a herb junkie
he didn't ride the rails
hoboing the big country
he didn't work hard in his prime
he was a suburban rebel kind
my grandpa worked a porn store
in Moose Jaw
my grandpa worked a porn store
in Moose Jaw

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
