Lyrics for Opening Night

I dedicate a colour to my dearest friends and family who so solemnly and nicely dressed come visit me, I must confess I feel like Gena might upon her opening night Fiery red I give my momAnd so the hounding begins my dad transparant he is gonea sudden crack on the shins my sisters I give black and whitewhip stinging say oh hello and guys I hate well fuck 'em bright you look like someone I know my friends get shades of bluewhile sniggering up your sleeve and ginger green to youa kid a joke just like we guys in a schoolyard aged five the baddest honcho alive track down your friends to a bar trace over steps in a car say that's a pretty excuse make mine a pineapple juice bugbears are plenty round here give him a clip on the ear says dad infront of TV decide channel randomly I feel something coming on a funny turn or a wrong decision made casually like dad infront of the TV regurgitation and goo ten squillion eyes watch as you put up a pretty good fight on this your opening night on this your opening night on this your opening night on this your opening night on this your opening night
