HE BELONGS TO THE FLIES! MY HOUSE IS BUILT ON LIES! (Crying) I did it for you Martha, Don't act like you don't know me Just because we never met Doesn't mean we weren't meant to be I did it for you, Martha He wasn't such a great man All I know is There are too many jars of him in my van I did it for you, Martha My jealously would not relent Money can't buy happiness, But it can buy a lot of cement.

about

THE VROOB EP

A little collection of old songs that Johnny wanted to release like wild chickens onto the populace. These songs carry that zesty charm that Thursday likes to call "fun" or "poorly recorded." Classic tunes such as "Bollocks" and "I Did it for You, Martha" are featured. INCLUDES A BONUS VERSION OF "MARTHA" WHEN YOU DOWNLOAD.
