Atom You're Awesome

MC Lars


My girlfriend hates you but I love your stuff. 
I listen to it all the time, I can't get enough. 
I dig your first CD (your debut), 
and "Society of People Named Elihu." 
And "Making Love" is fresh, this much is true, 
but "Redefining Music" is funky and new. 
And so I crank it up, turn it up, 
and pump up the bass. 
The package's synth lines are up in my face. 
I listen to it when I drive any place. 
Up yours to anyone who says I've got bad taste! 
Atom's music rocks, with nerdy soul. 
His new-wave-synth-punk is never dull. 

CHORUS
Atom, you're awesome. 

I had a dream 
when I was in grade school 
that Rob Halford, he kissed me, see fool. 
And I was welcomed to the family with Connor, 
it was undercover funny just like a longer 
keyboard that Enya played. 
So I pumped iron and I got paid 
when I owned the Redskins 
with the Ghetto Boys, 
breaking down the walls with kilogram toys. 
And we sang to Madonna, all night long, 
I opened up my heart, I opened it strong 
to Tim Allen, who's not that funny, 
in Philadelphia where I made lots of money 
as a goalie, sixteen-hundred pounds. 
Chillling on the ice rink so profound, 
upside down from here on the map, 
sick of people who give me crap. 
So I put them on an island in the middle of the sea, 
and it was just Atom, Atom and me. 

REPEAT CHORUS
