Name: Green Day
Duration: P00H03M23S
Description: In the post-Rank Amateurs years, the former duo got together a couple of times to work on new material. Green Day was a black-comedy horror story Andy had written. Together we worked out the basic structure, and then I braved the battle alone. One of the noisiest Kevins tracks ever!

lyrics

GREEN DAY by A. Bergey

My heart's a flutter on a green day
I find the captain on the prowl
It is my duty to detain him
By any means the law allows

My head's a swimming on a blue day
I find some gristle on the plow
I can't imagine how it happened
Bet the barn animals know how

It's my crime - not on time
Mystery molded
It's my fate - to be late
History folded

Sergeant gives me weekend duty
Stuck somewhere down by the canals
I find the captain all disheveled
Telling me "I'm your pal"

My heart's a flutter on a green day
I find my courage sinking low
It is my duty to report him
Please let the record show

It's my crime - not on time
Mystery molded
It's my fate - to be late
History folded

My heart's a flutter on a green day
I find the captain on the prowl
It is my duty to detain him
By any means the law allows
