The Dead Milkmen

Do The Brown Nose

Good evening ladies and gentlemen

And welcome to P.J.'s Astrological Love Lounge

We are Lester Shy and the Shyphonics

My name is Lester Shy and these fine gentlemen all around me

Well they're the Shyphonics

And we hail proudly from Fargo, North Dakota

Now, way down south in Fargo, whenever we needs a little somethin' extra

We like to do a little thing we call the brown nose

And we'd like all you fine ladies and gentlemen here tonight

To help us out in doin' the brown nose

So remember: when I shout "What you gonna do?"

You're gonna shouts back "Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose"

Think you can handle that? (crowd: ya!)

I'm pretty sure you can; let's give it a try

What you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

Oh, ladies and gentlemen, you should all be round up and shot

That was terrible (crowd: moans)

What you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

Yes! Yes! That's so much better

You have my permission to go out and reproduce (crowd: light cheering)

You're lovely human beings

So now we're gonna do a little brown nosin' for ya

Are you excited? (crowd: cheering)

Are you ready?

Okay then, here we go!

When you want that job, I say now what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

There's rich uncle Bob, I say now what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

You get stopped by the man, I say now what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

Record company wants to sign your band, I say now what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

Mercy!

Jump back and kiss myself 300 times

Alright!

Now I know many of you fine ladies and gentlemen

Have begun to ask yourself

Ooh, but Lester Shy and the Shyphonics

How do we do this wild new thing you call the brown nose?

Well take a second, prepare yourself mentally and physically

We'll show you how to brown nose

Bend your (bend yo') knees (ooh LaLaLa...)

Now move your head like this (ooh LaLaLa...)

Pucker dem lips (ooh LaLaLa...)

Give dat butt a kiss (ooh...)

Kiss my

Askin' for some green, I say now what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

Boss is really mean, I say now what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

Wanna impress your a' girlfriend's father, I say what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

Owe some money a' to your brother, I say what you gonna do?

(Gonna brown nose. Gonna brown nose)

You! Yes you! Here's a dime; run out and call the PMRC (Ok)

Gonna brown nose!

I wanna see every last one of you brown nosin'

Even you tuna lips

Alright! If you can dig it I wanna hear you shout

Erlenmeyer Flask

(Erlenmeyer Flask)

Alright, I know you loved it the first time

You gonna love it even more the second time

As once more, we prepare to get down

And do some serious big-time brown nosin'

Bend your (bend yo') knees (ooh LaLaLa...)

Move your head like this (ooh LaLaLa...)

Pucker dem lips (ooh LaLaLa...)

Give dat butt a kiss (ooh...)

Kiss my (YA!)
