Abby Jenne and the Enablers: Music
Barre, VT
(The Abby Jenne Band)
2004-04-10
Ezra Oklan, Ben Giroux and Abby Jenne
Again with the Ezra on Bass, Guitar and Drums and Abby running out to the deck to write lyrics. Actually this song is quite near and dear to me, as I live in EAST Barre and although people can not fucking drive in Barre, and it is ugly in parts, and the bars kind of suck (except the Rock of course ...big shout-out to Destiny!) Barre keeps the snobs out. And I am a snob snob. The second you think you are better than Barre is the second the Universe starts plotting ways to put you there. So anyhow, that's my song about Barre.
BARRE, VT
A. Jenne, E. Oklan, Ben Giroux
The Greek God of Granite
Has got a rock-hard sword
It’s cause he’s thinking ‘bout racing
Out on Thunder Road
And there ain’t no college on college street
But the food and the drugs
And the sex are cheap
So don’t dump on Barre
‘Cause Barre fuckin’ rocks
Exile on Main Street
Planet Rock and the porn shop
Socio-economic and cultural diversity
Keep out the self-righteous hippies like I used to be
No of course I don’t mean you
Don’t be Chevy Beretta blue
Black Jeans and a mullet
You’d look good in ‘em too
They won’t let me in the Moutou club
So I’ll drink Labatts at the Frog Pond
Hey lets go down to Gusto’s
To get my redneck groove on
Don’t dump on Barre
‘Cause Barre fuckin Ro-o-oo-o-o-cks
Exile on Main Street
Planet Rock and the porn shop.
