Here is a sampling of the bfpt cd-5 entitled 'closer to bob' that we're
compiling on a local bbs, it's not complete but here's a teaser:

----------

'retailian' (walmart dub)

she spreads the doors wide open to let the shoppers in
she leaves a trail of money to show me what she's bought
she has the power of retail underneath her skin
speedos from a thousand others drip down from within

oh my beautiful buyer
oh my precious store
my jeans my reflection
i am a consumer

devils speak of the ways in which she'll buy that dress
angels bleed from the tainted touch of my chargex
need to liquidate need to alleviate this overstock
i know the prices i charge are limitless

oh my beautiful buyer
oh my precious store
my jeans my reflection
i am a consumer
______

you heard it here first..............


This is my "Closer To Bob (Jobless GenXer Remix)".

------
you let me whine and blame you
you let me fight and flame you
you let me rot and shame you
you let me worship fame, too

exploit me                               pollute my insides
exploit me                               with the burgers you sell
exploit me                               corporate america
                                        can i just blame you as well?

i am a trendy faux-bisexual
i wear pajamas during daytime
i am a trendy faux-bisexual
i flaunt my life as a slob
you get me closer to bob

you can have my unemployment
you can have the check that it brings
you can have my honeybear bong
you can have my nipple ring

exploit me                                 promote your albums
exploit me                                 with all the sex you can sell
exploit me                                 rake in the profits
                                          crack me like a mussel shell

masturbation, corn chips
and mtv
will wendy's hire me?
i'll just have to see

i lick the stale grease
coating my hands
i'm a spectator
confined to the stands

-----

heyisay (emptv)

he cut his levis up because of mtv
it tries to tell me what to put on my cd
it's got the answers to all my mysteries
it dreamed a chart up and called it top 40

kurt cobain's dead and you don't know it's real
if he's really dead why's he still on the tube?

it flashed its vids to keep your attention span sublime
it made a chorus that an idiot could memorize
the perfect kingdom of vacuum, channel surfing so inane
demands your attention for most of the day

your brain is dead, but you don't care
choking on corn chips that bob holds dear
if you had a thought it'd be quite rare

spurning knowledge your illiteracy
mom buy this for me!
