Bob
Rancid Lyrics

He spent 15 years
He devoted fifteen years of his life

Getting loaded for 15 years
To intoxication, he lived it up for 15 years

Till his liver exploded
He drank chronically until his liver failed

Now what's Bob gonna do
What alternative remains for Bob?

Now that he can't drink?
Because his health won't tolerate alcohol anymore

The Doctor said: "What ya been thinking bout?"
The physician asked: 'What are you contemplating?'

Bob said, "that's the point. I won't think bout nothing.
Bob's answer was, 'That's the point. I'm not gonna think about anything'.

Now I gotta do something else
Now, he must engage in something else

To pass the time
To use up his time

Had someone shave his head
He had his hair clipped

He got a new identity
He obtained a new, distinct personality

62 hole air cushioned boots
He wore 62 hole air cushioned boots

And a girl who rides a scooter
He had a girlfriend who rode a scooter

To take him out of town
They were departing the town

They would get away
They would escape

Running around
They would be wandering

And as the trucks drive by
As the trucks went by

You can hear the mother fuckers go "PUNK!"
One can hear them yelling 'Punk!'

A couple of lines, an extra thermos of Joe
Some lines and an additional flask of Joe

He'll be kicking in heads at the punk rock show
He'll be assaulting people at the punk rock show

Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what
Bob is the kind of person who is only too familiar with

Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what to do
Bob is the type that is familiar with how to handle things

When the doctor tells him to
As the village doctor directs him

Quit your drinking, now's the time
Abstain from alcohol, it's now the required moment

But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever adhere to the rules?

To all my friends I feel just great
All my acquaintances, I feel simply wonderful

But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever mend his illegal ways?

Kicking ass, and busting heads
Kicking butt and bashing heads

Red suspenders
Red suspenders

Once a day he shaves his head
Once a day he trims his hair

Bob!
Bob!
