Slummer/Thermostat I stopped in for a beer, she said you're not from around here I said actually I am, but I haven't been around And I never really hang out on the west side of town But I hear girls get on their backs on the wrong side of the tracks I got no class but I got cash I'm picking up trailer trash My demographic was getting stale You can't keep a Joad in jail I got nothing to do and even less to say About the truth about the youth, getting plastered and getting play Hoosier girls don't mind a quick one, a quick one while he's away All blissed out 'cause I kissed one, taste the waste and face the day Don't mind the snow just come inside my room And throw off your coat, throw on some tumes Can I assume that you didn't come in for the decor or the gloom That covers the bed we're in, the show is starting soon The light is so goddamned dim I can't tell where I stop and she begins Block rocking heat and we're stalking, stocking up on sins I wonder if I'll ever have a love this dirty again I left town the day after that Now I'm all alone, growing old and getting fat I bet she's at home, drinking beer and smoking cat Isn't that the way, hey, check the thermostat I got no class but I got cash I'm picking up trailer trash My demographic was getting stale You can't keep a Joad in jail Who's gonna mop all the floors Who's gonna unionize the whores If it happened again would I believe more in God Or more in myself?
