Track: Guys With Ties
Jensen 1992

You see ‘em everywhere you go,
Predictably young and old.
They walk with a steady gait,
they’ll tell you they control their fate,
it’s the uniform of the brand new age;
they all look alike and they make me rage.

(chorus)
And I don’t like guys with ties;
They make me nervous, and what’s the purpose?
I don’t like guys with ties;
They’re management geeks or sales and service.

You see ‘em in the office hall,
or hangin’ around the mall.
They’re just a tie with a different face
or a race from another place.
it’s the uniform of the brand new age;
they all look alike and I wanna say.

(chorus)
And I don’t like guys with ties;
They make me nervous, and what’s the purpose?
I don’t like guys with ties;
Brokers in love with shiny Porsche’s.

The guy that invented the noose
must’ve been the guy that invented the tie
so it’s obvious that this guy must’ve had a wife…

Cockroaches never die,
and neither do guys with ties.
You can kill one on any day
another ten will come and take his place.
It’s a symbol we’re tied into a job
Where money talks and bullshit walks.

(chorus)
Yeah, I don’t like guys with ties;
They make me nervous, what’s the fucking purpose?
I don’t like guys with ties;
executives in their Halston jackets…
