lyrics
Charlie Buckets five feet tall
He wears high heels and overalls
Awkward as hell, coffee black
Now he's a girl in a pillbox hat
Unemployed, the drag queen for Des Moines
All she wants from Charlie
Is for Charlie to sing his song
Unemployed colley boy
Pawned away his degree
On his own, keeps his hair combed--slicked back
Gets his news from staring at his telephone
Little city girl head on straight
No SOO Line she don't run freight
Pays her rent off TV kicks
Goin' out after late night shifts
All they want from Charlie
Is for Charlie to sing his song
Mrs. Buckets four feet now
Got beat down by the dressed-crowd
Sweet as hell, coffee black
Still pretty in the pillbox hat
Self-employed the drag queen from Des Moines
He wears high heels and overalls
Awkward as hell, coffee black
Now he's a girl in a pillbox hat
Unemployed, the drag queen for Des Moines
All she wants from Charlie
Is for Charlie to sing his song
Unemployed colley boy
Pawned away his degree
On his own, keeps his hair combed--slicked back
Gets his news from staring at his telephone
Little city girl head on straight
No SOO Line she don't run freight
Pays her rent off TV kicks
Goin' out after late night shifts
All they want from Charlie
Is for Charlie to sing his song
Mrs. Buckets four feet now
Got beat down by the dressed-crowd
Sweet as hell, coffee black
Still pretty in the pillbox hat
Self-employed the drag queen from Des Moines

I've followed Har Mar for 16 or 17 years, and this right here? This is his best album. That's not a small feat!

awesome stuff. enjoyable. I cab remember hearing most of these guys in their other respective bands on the KQ homegrown show (a show sorely missed in the twin cities, sorry current), and seeing a lot of those same bands at the turf. anyway nicely done. not a bad track on the album.
