The Wrinkles

Liner Notes

Oh, what #delightful #madness is this #song, this #gleam of #brilliant #rhapsody from Spencer Kimball and William Fuller. #folkrock #altpop #indierock

Lyrics

Puttin’ heat on the wrinkles Puttin’ fear down the hole Putin howlin’ bloody hell Sippin’ vodka from his bowl While me and my friends Are sortin’ problems out Gonna put down the putsch With a scream and a shout

Chorus: Gonna iron out the wrinkles Make the problem go away Thought we were on the brink Of a better, kinder day Time to turn up the heat Pass the poteen Gonna iron out the wrinkles Turn up the steam

Sittin’ ridin’ shotgun On the road to fare thee well Gonna make ‘em wish they’d never Heard that big black bell It’s tollin’ for their lies And their money grubbin’ cash Rippin’ out their eyes Spittin’ on their trash

Chorus

Even more elevens While the billionaires laugh The country shows its age Goin’ down in ash A nation full of wrinkles Ain’t too proud to beg We gave up our freedom For the price of an egg

Chorus

Love the energy of this song. My favorite lyric is “We gave up our freedom for the price of an egg.” Brilliant!
