The Ballad of Ned's Head

Momma gave me Ned's head
Wrapped in a bedspread
Three miles from Hampstead
Swingin' off pig lead
Couldn't eat cornbread
Couldn't even drop dead
Waiting for the bloodshed
Fighting with some Dragon's head
Beavis and Butthead
Riding on a bobsled
Half a pound of monkey bread
Soaked up in sudafed
Chewin' on some cheese spread
Super heavy hash head
Lying on a bunk bed
Doesn't know he's brain dead
Kids go unfed
Crying in the woodshed
Daddy says "Go to bed.
Don't play with Ned's Head!"
Could have been a tiger if your momma hadda breastfed
But you just go to bed
Don't play with Ned's Head
Please just go to bed
Don't play with Ned's Head

People said there’s a clown in the White House
They say a clown lived in Downing Street too
But these men are not clowns they are fascists
And our choices can stop what they do.
We could hate like they hate, but we choose not to
We could hate like they hate but we choose not to
We could hate like they hate, put up walls and close the gates
We could hate like they hate, but we choose not to
I don’t brag about my sins, I just confess them
I don’t brag about my sins, I just confess them
I don’t brag about my sins, shaking both my double chins
I don’t brag about my sins, I just confess them
I could vote away your rights but I choose freedom
I could vote away your rights but I choose freedom
I could vote away your rights, make you lie awake all night
I could vote away your rights but I choose freedom
They divide us all by race, but we’re united
They divide us all by race, but we’re united
They divide us all by race, smash their boots into your face
They divide us all by race, but we’re united
I could lie and I could cheat but what would I win?
I could lie and I could cheat but what would I win?
I could lie and I could cheat, like the Westminster elite
I could lie and I could cheat, but what would I win?
I could hate like they hate, but I choose not to
I could hate like they hate but I choose not to
I could hate like they hate but I choose to be your mate
I could hate like they hate but I choose not to.

I’m keeping my pictures of you
To smile at when I'm feeling blue
The news of our break-up smudged everyone's make-up
But we had a chuckle or two.
I've hundreds of pictures of you
The time you passed out on the loo
And that night that I made ya dress up as Darth Vader
My light-saber still smells of you.
I’m keeping my pictures of you
The day we played “Twister for Two”
And the look in your eyes, as my beard brushed your thighs
I’m keeping that picture of you!
I'm keeping my pictures of you
Though I could get some cash for a few
Your face in this piccy Is hot, wet and sticky
It might raise a shilling or two.
I'm keeping my pictures of you
And I trust that you're doing so too
For the end of this tale
Is mutual blackmail
I'm keeping my pictures of you
(for the court case)
I'm keeping my pictures of you
(look at your face!)
I’m keeping my pictures of you!

Blockchain Blues

Got the blockchain blues, blockchain blues
I'm through with cryptocurrencies
Blockchain blues, blockchain blues
Cos my baby stole my private keys
My dreams of getting rich are bust as soon as I think 'em
I just can't wait for Universal Basic Income.
Got the blockchain blues, those blockchain blues
Left me here in misery,
Got no satoshi,
Left me here in misery
Got the blockchain blues, and you would too
If your baby stole your private keys
Blockchain blues, here is the news
She's messin' with my merkle trees
I shoulda got a clue, just what she was up ta
When I caught her playing D & D with Vinay Gupta
I got the blockchain blues, the blockchain blues
Baby's left me out in the rain
I ain't kidding
Bitcoin rollin' round in my brain.
I mine all night just to keep from sleeping
Sleep all day just to keep from weeping
Got the blockchain blues,the blockchain blues
Facing lifelong penury
I ain’t lying
Buddy, can you spare that NFT?
