Girly attic flu As long as we are getting a bit technical! It happened on a Firedrill It was like the EARTH STOOD STILL From that moment I knew the truth I had caught the Girly attic flu To the Gym the girls did go Curtains closed Secret movie show Why could the boys see Cause it was the girly attic flu girly attic flu I feel so weak my klnees are trembling Let’s humiliate him Let’s turn him into a girl Let’s give him corrective underwear And put nare on his sweaty palms Ha ha ha Older boys used to pick on me Kick me and tear my baseball cards Why wouldn’t I defend myself Symptoms of the girly attic flu I ran home and told my mother She said it’s nothing don’t bother Then I heard her phone my teacher Talking bout the girly attic flu girly attic flu I feel so weak I’m afraid to defend myself Get outta here you sissy To infect the male of the species Sprickle kooties on his hair or sweeter Pass him a love note Give him snuggy or Indian rope burn No not that ahhhhhhhhhhhh And when I ride the waves I am alone with myself The surf crashes off my body And I am free No man owns I am king of the universe I am a man Look out for that rock your gonna wipe out Now I got responsibility To function well in society I rotate tire Replace burnt out tube I wait my turn to add a word Now dance the quirk jerk smirk And marvo at computer jerk Election time is almost here They’re voting in the girly attic flu What ya gonna do girly attic flu Your are now under my spell I command you to hit that wimp Hit that wimp Don’t hit me nooooooooooo Take that No no don’t hit Please no don’t get me…. Ahhhhhhh Mom, they were beating up on me at school I didn’t want to be hit What’s wrong with me? girly attic flu you wimp I can run faster than you Go tell your mother! Ah ah ah

Puppets Puppets on a string parade Display their hearts and walk away We could stay and we could make believe These string would fall away Wooo ooo ooo but they can’t pull me away from you Wooo ooo ooo but they can’t pull me away We belong we both belong At once we’re here and then we’re gone We reappear we’re free to feel The pull of different puppetiers Wooo ooo ooo but they can’t pull me away from you Wooo ooo ooo but they can’t pull me away Ah pull my strings Heart strings Ah pull my strings Heart strings Take my heart no string attached no strings attached Take my heart no string attached no strings attached No strings at all Puppets on a string parade Display their hearts and march away We can stay and we can make believe These strings would fall a-way We can make believe Take my heart no string attached no strings attached Take my heart no string attached no strings attached No strings at all

Fall Through the Floor Face in a frame Broken window pane Thurder under ground We’re too close the sound Race with the rain Can’t escape the pain When I thought it would end Lighting strikes again When I saw you I fall through the floor When I touched you I fall through the floor All I need is you Got to set me free They say it can’t be Too many things in front of me Jump from the roof Aim for the truth Wind is blowin me Where I land is where I’ll be When I saw you I fall through the floor When I touched you I fall through the floor Fall through the floor I fall through the floor The things a girl has to go through to do a polka You should have seen what it did to the dummy in the window Every body stand in line A rakity ray for him!

about

Barry Beam was a New Wave artist in the San Francisco Punk scene cir 1984. He was known for his one man shows at the Mabuhey Gardens, running around wide eyed with a Mic screwed to his guitar. His alien abductor, 2Ray Ka Boing Boing would take over his body during shows and make him tap dance while singing "It's so big". All Barry Beam wanted was to say he was sorry about the "Girly Attic Flu" ,( www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmCYQi2SKlc ), and its effect on the economy since.
