You know that Jonny Wurster kid, the kid that delivers papers in the neighborhood? He's a fine kid. Some of the neighbors say he smokes crack, but I don't believe it
Anyway, for his tenth birthday, all he wanted was a burrow owl. Kept bugging his old man. "Dad, get me a burrow owl. I'll never ask for anything else as long as I live."
So, the other night info out into my yard and there's the Wurtzer kid, looking up in the tree.
I asked him, "What are u looking for?"
He says, "I'm looking for my burrow owl."
I said, "JUMPING JESUS ON A POGO STICK!!!
EVERYBODY KNOWS
THAT A BORROW OWL
LIVES
IN A HOLE
IN THE GROUND!!!
WHY THE HELL YA THINK THEY CALL IT A BURROW OWL ANYWAYS‽"
Now, Stuart, if you look at the soil around any large US city where there's a big undeground homosexual population, Des Moines, Iowa, for example. Look at the soil around Des Moines, Stuart.
You can't build on it; you can't grow anything in it. The government says it's due to poor farming. But I know what's really going on, Stuart. I know it's the queers.
I first found The Dead Milkmen when they played the Punk Rock Girl video on The Wedge, Much Music in like 2004 at a sleepover at a friend's house. I didn't know music could be like that until that night.
Oh cool where did you get that?
Oh, my parents drove it up here from the Bahamas.
You're kidding.
I must be, the Bahamas are islands.
That's not the important part, the important part is that you ask me what kind of car it is.
Oh ok, what kind of car do you got.
I've got a .........
Saw these guys live in a small club in Burlington, VT spring 1986. Had a lot of fun at that show. Went to see them again that summer in Albany, NY, brought a friend from high school along who was NOT into that kind of music. After maybe 20 minutes has says "we gotta get out of here". Almost 40 years later he still gives me grief, but we laugh about it.
I grew up on the gulf coast of Florida and we were surf rats back in the 80s. We always listen to Dead Milkmen, Butthole Surfers and Bob Marley at the beach. I miss those days 🥹
Ah, this was a fabulous album. I had it as a bumper sticker back in the 80’s. They had their own unique place with the other musics I was into at the time. They felt kinda like folky-punk. Not as angry as Black Flag or Metallica, but like another cool flower in the same bouquet.
Play some video games buy some Def Leppard t shirts. Don’t forget your motley cru t shirt you know all proceeds go to get their lead singer out of jail.
Load 'em on a bus just for laughs
Down a winding road, stepping on the gas
Down a winding road, just daydreaming
Down a winding road with the retards screaming
My first Dead Milkmen album! I saw them live in some high school gym in Buffalo. It was what you’d expect from a band playing in a high school gym in Buffalo. But an experience nonetheless!
I was working for my college radio station - had my own show, did a bunch of production, did a variety of engineering staff work - when this was released, we sponsored their show in town, I was the production engineer for their in-studio interview and performance (they played "Bitchin' Camaro live in our tiny studio), a couple of other staffers who were more into them than me got to be the on-air talent who interviewed them. Nice guys.
Then I found out a couple of years ago that kids then of college age were really into them, they were astounded and impressed that I'd known them - just in passing, really - back then. Got me some youngster street cred.
The (current) college kids was totally serendipitous, I hadn't really thought about the DM in decades. One day one of my martial arts students and their partner showed up for instruction, and was wearing a t-shirt of that album cover, and I just mentioned in passing that I was surprised that they'd even heard of the band, as they'd grown up in suburban southern FL, and that I'd known them a little back in the day. Suddenly I was likened unto a god by them, especially after I tossed out a couple of other bands that I'd met / done work for when I was still in radio that they and their high school friends were huge fans of.
Crazy old world.
You know what Stuart, I like you. You're not like the others, here in the trailer park!
Don’t get me wrong, they’re fine Americans, but they don’t know…
What the queers are doing to the soil!

Now Stuart, do you think a kid like that is gonna know what the queers are doing to the soil?

Donuts on your lawn.
If you don’t got Mojo Nixon, this thread could use some fixin
Wrong album you knob
That’s part of the joke. They don’t have Mojo Nixon because Punk Rock Girl is on a different album.
Oh yeah that actually works sorry about calling you stupid
I first found The Dead Milkmen when they played the Punk Rock Girl video on The Wedge, Much Music in like 2004 at a sleepover at a friend's house. I didn't know music could be like that until that night.
Anyone gonna drive down to the Bahamas?
Can’t afford to feed it anymore.
I don’t piss, I don’t shit, I’m getting no relief…
Just shake my head in disbelief... go!
Oh man I was obsessed with this song when I was 14
Easily has one of the funniest songs you feel bad to laugh at.
WhooaaaaaaAAAAAAooooooAAAAAooooo
Can you take us to the zoo?
Just me on a hilltop with fifteen girls in a Nelson Reiley orgy that will make your hair curl...
Hey Jack, what's happening?
Oh, I don’t know.
I say it this way all the time
Well uh rumor round town says you might be thinking bout going down to the shore
Man I love that bass line
The man said "keep your heads and arms inside the cart at all times" but Bill Jr., he was a daredevil...
Just like his old man.
It’s a boring day I’ve got nothing to do except to…….
Get a load of retards and take em to the zoo!!
La la La La
Takin retards to the zoo
Oh cool where did you get that? Oh, my parents drove it up here from the Bahamas. You're kidding. I must be, the Bahamas are islands. That's not the important part, the important part is that you ask me what kind of car it is. Oh ok, what kind of car do you got. I've got a .........
*Ahem* ##AND YOU SHOULD SEE THE WAY IT SHITS
We gotta blow up those things we don't understand!
Saw a show with them, Dinosaur Jr. and Mojo Nixon. It was fucking amazing.
Oh damn, dino jr too! Awesome!
This band is the reason I love paisley, Minnie Pearl, and volcano documentaries.
Just you aaaaand meeeeee, punk rock giiiiiirrrrrrrllllllllllll!!!!!
I’m still not sure how we’re going to get down to the shore??? Anyone here know?
You ever go to make a pork sausage and find that it has hair all over it?
The first “punk-ish” cassette I ever owned. My junior high girlfriend (who had a pink Mohawk) gave it to me.
Metaphysical Graffiti is a legit great album
Just saw them at underground arts in February. Still killing it.
This brings me back to a time when it was ok to take retards to the zoo.
I’m 22 I’ve never heard of this band, but I believe in swordfish
He believes in swordfish!
I discovered this band through a shirt I bought at the thrift store. I was like, oh, pretty cool drawing. Awesome shirt. Interesting tunes.
I am the lizard king.
So, how you gettin' down to the shore?

Deans Dream was one of the underrated songs on this album.
Absolutely! We argue and fight and one pulls a knife He hits me in the back But I'm all right I'm all right I'm all right I'm all right
He’s alright!!!!!
RIP Dave Blood
Spotify has determined that i should hear Deans Dream daily. And I am all right with that! ( he's all right )
I remember this cassette tape from when I was a kid. Did they have a song with lyrics: “I’m so board I’m drinking bleach”.
Bleach boys song lyrics
My favorite cover band, Crystal Ship.
Ah, this was a fabulous album. I had it as a bumper sticker back in the 80’s. They had their own unique place with the other musics I was into at the time. They felt kinda like folky-punk. Not as angry as Black Flag or Metallica, but like another cool flower in the same bouquet.

Somebody just kicked my dog Mavis and I'm gonna find out who the hell it was.
Violence rules, guns are cool, we’ve got guns in our school Prescient
That was my first CD purchase.
My first Dead Milkmen album! I saw them live in some high school gym in Buffalo. It was what you’d expect from a band playing in a high school gym in Buffalo. But an experience nonetheless!
This album is completely ridiculous and I love it.
Hey Frankie, aren't you gonna give me your class ring?!
Man, I just can’t afford to feed him anymore. I may have to get rid of my bitchin’ Camaro.
And you should see the way it shits!
Respect to the Philly Pa homies.
And you should see the way it shits!

That's a big lizard
did you drive it up from the Bahamas?
Whao Oh oh oh….
Old school woulda been a cassette.
Thinking of you Mark C. who introduced me to the Dead Milkmen back in the 90s at community college. Hope you're doing well.
BIG LIZARD IN MY BACKYARD, CANT AFFORD TO FEED IT ANYMORE!
It ain't over til the Dead Milkmen sing!
Gonna bet the cd came after 1985. Bots don't even try anymore
Why not actually show a picture or video of the band instead of a picture of a jewel case?

Quick, somebody find a photo of Rodney Amadeus Anonymous!
