Guided By Voices - Shocker in Gloomtown (Early version) lyrics

Were you there? Were you kicking? Alive in aisle twelve Gimmick of the century In boxes and jars And giveaway cars He motioning for you Twas a band They were sickening Arousing everyone PS Dump Your Boyfriend Promotional trash Emotional bash With helium balloons So now tell me How the hell did we miss it Bared his a** for all to see And no one got to kiss it
