about

Recorded in 1987 as the start of a concept album that was to be based on Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band under the working titled Sgt. Peckerhead, we only finished two songs, both of them with my lyrics and Scrappi DuChamp (later of MONDO Vanilli) doing all the music. These are the 2 completed songs.

lyrics

Merry Tweekster World Mutations Day
(Sirius-DuChamp)

It's still a few days away
And the kiddies all look so gray
But they'll be getting a bit of a spin-out
When they see the hippie trip-o-world flip out

On the frontiers of my neocortex
As I think bi-lobely and act globally
Who knows what glows Cher Noble
And who sees armageddon it on
But beyond the abyss we're on vinegar and piss
As we leave Ronald Reagan and beyond
Merry Tweekster World Mutation Day
And it's never gonna be the same

Merry Tweekster World Mutation Day
So let me introduce you to the one-and-only Sufi Sales
Merry Tweekster World Mutation Day
So let me introduce you to the one-and-only Sufi Sales
Merry Tweekster World Mutation Day
So let me introduce you to the one-and-only Sufi Sales
Merry Tweekster World Mutation Day
So let me introduce you to the one-and-only Sufi Sales

SUFI SALES

I'm Sufi Sales
Though no one seems to know it
I'm Sufi Sales
Though no one seems to care
And if it rains
I don't believe I'll go out
You'll wait for me but I won't make it there

Rolling along singing a song
And I don't believe I'll be for very long
Coming back home and sitting alone
And my Sadie comes in with an ice cream cone
Ice cream cone
Ice cream cone oh yeah

And it's my day to be just this way
The loving I crave won't make me a slave
I can lay down without a frown
Sufi Sales is back in town

(Watch out for laughter
Watch out for fun
Sufi Sales is back
Hon)
