Idiot Flesh Lyrics
Baby I've been watching you clean my floor
Baby I know cleaning takes up most of your time
Oh but girl, aren't you looking for some other kind of slime?
First you got to got to
Got to got to do the...
Housewife
I'm dirty, dirty
So get me clean
Housewife
I'm dirty, dirty
Housewife
You know what I mean!
She got me so clean
I guess I'll pay my dues
She left me so hungry
Started eating my shoes
She said "Boy you can't eat those,
T-T-Try some of mine"
The she started cooking
I said "Baby that'll do just fine"
She turned the oven on
And I saw what she got
Then she started cooking
And I said "Oh baby, that's hot"
I'll let you taste it
But first you got to do the...
Housewife
Ain't talking bout politics
Ain't preachin' morality
Said do you wear brown when you paint the town?
Everybody say "Fuck that!"
Dirty or not, here we come
It wasn't funky anymore
Well, she's a brick...

Formed in Oakland, California, USA in 1985 under the name Acid Rain with the demo album "We Were All Very Worried." They eventually changed their name to Idiot Flesh prior to the release of their first album in 1990. After Idiot Flesh disbanded in the late 90's, lead singer Nils Frykdahl and bassist/producer Dan Rathbun later formed Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.
Known to tour the US in a converted city bus with Rathbun as the driver/mechanic, with the windshield destination banner of HELL. Besides their wild performances which embodied a "rock against rock" ethos, they were also known to defy classification with marching band routines, performing puppet shows, and playing household items as instruments (in tune). After finding few financial rewards for their increasingly complex stage show, Idiot Flesh disbanded in 1998.

This is the first song that got me into Idiot Flesh. Now I'm obsessed with this band..
I can't count how many times I've listened to this now and everytime I always hear something new.
Thanks for uploading this!

I've had this on vinyl since it came out. Probably have listened to it more than a hundred times or more. When Nils gave it to me (yes he gave it to me that's how cool he is) I never would have guessed how it would change my life and perception of music. Thanks ya Idiots!

I just received my copy of this Vinyl in the mail; it even came with the inner print with some of the lyrics and whatnot. I could get you the lyrics for your description if you'd like. Just message me and let me know.
