5:05 Lyrics

Courtesy of rjhockey from a Guided By Voices board, here's a stab at the 5:05 lyrics. As he put it, " a definite "FUCK YOU" to the recording industry." And I'd have to agree:

voice over]
That was the voice of Adolf Hitler, the most ferocious dictator the
world has ever known. For 13 years he led a reign of terror. During
that period, his public appearances created a state of mass hypnosis
among his many followers. His speech over, the crowds would shout,
"Zeig Heil! Zeig Heil!"

And then break forth in joyous song - joyous song - break forth -
break forth ...

All your clients
Who all are giants
They sit by their supplies
And see so many flies

I ain't about the money

If you wanna sue me
Can't see through me
Bring on a lawsuit
I'll bring my swimsuit
All you girls and guys
And join the 5:05

5:05
5:05

(…church… places of worship… non-taxable…)

5:05
Hey

The loneliest place on earth

You act like they died
Just to be on your…
I better say a prayer to the Ramones

If they wanna sue me
Can't see through me
Bring on a lawsuit
I'll bring the swimsuit
All you girls and guys
Make some noise
And join the 5:05

5:05
5:05

Non-taxable
Tell me you decide

Hey!
Ho!

????? Ramones?
What they do there (???)
I really don't know
5:05
5:05

All you girls and guys
Join the 5:05
C'mon and fly the flag, high

If you wanna sue me
Can't see through me
The spider is surprised
Bring on a lawsuit
I'll bring my swimsuit
C'mon make some noise

5:05

(places of worship… non-taxable)

5:05
5:05
Fuck you!
5:05
5:05
Fuck you!
