We were working at some school in the middle of Newark in the middle of the summer masking and grouting (for all you old waterproofers out there) and we were on a break when John Lanza said "Zeke, you should write a song called Scumbag in my eye". I thought what a great idea, so I tore off the part of a cement bag and wrote these words down, took it home later and finished it.
Scumbag
Pissy-eyed and shit-faced feeling no pain
sometimes my life's like old beer down the drain
but I won't cry, although I might try
and you'll always be a scumbag in my eyes
You're looking in the mirror at a face that would scare
your own sweet mother if she could be here
you look like The Missing Link they wish they would find
and you'll always be a scumbag in my eyes
You are an asshole, a dickhead and what's more
your sister's a tramp your old lady's a whore
well as I sit here drinking this beer
it occurs to me by and by
you'll always be a scumbag to me
yea you'll always be a scumbag in my eyes
you'll always be a scumbag in my eyes
