99 PERCENTILE BLUES

Im going nuclear , Im going nuclear
Im gonna nuke this great big world
Ive got a red button, a beautiful button
Shiny as an ocean pearl

Circle the wagons I love a braggin’
About all this whole wide world in my hands
Ive got a wingman who don’t like global warming
Its just the latest fashionable trend

This land is my land not your land
And your land is my land too…

From NYC to the KGB
All the way down to El Paso
Don’t forget China, ain’t nothing finer
Than to grab em by the pussy willow
I like jalapeños, hot jalapenos
Hotter than the Taliban
But what the heck do I know I look like a cheeto
Orange as a Tennessee fan

Mi casa Su casa
Your house will be my house soon…

I like burritos, big burritos
Made by little Mexican hands
Courtesy of dreamers, big dreamers
Dreaming of a promise land
Read all about it, the border's overcrowded
They’re crawling out from everywhere
No one has a clue of the shit that I just made up
and I’m still a millionaire

No news is bad news its good news
If not then it's all fake news…

I got a comb over, want you “comb on over”
To my house on Pennsylvania street
Its a White House not a black house
Where all the crazy people meet
One percent of nothing is better than the oven
Depends on your point of view
You say tomato I say tomato
Fredo I know it was you

Don’t get me started, Im cold hearted
To your 99 percentile blues…

about

Mark Edgar Stuart Memphis, Tennessee

Stuart's stories are sweet but never saccharine, even-keeled but deeply affecting. His songs are at once sad, nostalgic, knowing, funny, even cheerful--equal parts Roger Miller and Eudora Welty. He's lovable and literary, smart yet plain-spoken, heartening, funny, and always memorable. He sounds new and familiar, fresh yet timeless. His songs sound like your favorite stories, retold by a friend. ... more
