Fraternity Blues lyrics translation: TOWNES VAN ZANDT Fraternity Blues song texte and letras TOWNES VAN ZANDT Fraternity Blues tab, paroles and testo TOWNES VAN ZANDT Fraternity Blues Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
I decided to improve my social station
I joined a fraternity organisation
tucked in my shirt
signed on the line
right away they said about to improve my mind
the car I drove
the books I read
the food I ate
the booze I drank
the girls I took out
my breath
Said `Kid, we don`t much like the way you walk
and you gonna have to change the way you talk`
They said `your dress is kind of sludge
and your attitude is mighty grudge`
Said `you got to learn to bubble`
`You got to bubble with enthusiasm` I started bubble
`Most important thing you can`t forget
is learning the entire Greek alphabet`
I never did really understand
that that`s gonna make me any more a man
but I learned it
I can whip through that Son-of-a-beta backwards in five seconds
Then they hit me with some pretty bad news
concerning the payment of monthly dues
I never did know where that money went
I never was sure it was well spent
but I paid it
I`m no troublecauser and besides I figured that`s life
if you want good friends it gonna cost you
Well, finally got to be party time
I got a great big old jug of wine
I went back to the house in about an hour
[when the boy`s were] drinking whiskey sours
Brandy Alexanders
frozen [daquires]
reciting the Greek alphabet to one another
I could see I was gonna have to do my very best
to get myself out of that fraternity mess
I stood right there outside the door
and I chugged that wine like never before
walked inside and bubbled
all over a couple of their dates
