Universal Welfare Line © 2008 words and music by Brian S. Cram Payin' dues is a game for fools When I can get away with playin' my own rules The best in life is mine for free The universe will hand out what it owes to me It's gonna be so fine Standin' in the sunshine In the universal welfare line Count on you to give me mine 'cause waitin' 'round for my settlements takes up all my time Well, I ain't flakey, no lazy slob 'cause suckin' blood from the universe is a full time job It's gonna be so fine Standin' in the sunshine In the universal welfare line (solos) Accusin' glances cause me no distress 'cause what you think of me is none of my business For who I am I owe no apology But I wonder why none of my dearest friends will talk to me It's gonna be so fine Standin' in the sunshine In the universal welfare line It's gonna be so fine Standin' in the sunshine In the universal welfare line Personnel: Brian Cram - upright bass, electric bass, guitar, vocals John Schilling - first guitar solo Bob Boulding - second guitar solo Jon Mattox - drums Bob Harrington - engineering (Guinea Pig Sound) Jon Mattox - engineering (Bright Orange) Sebastian Sheehan - drum engineering (Bright Orange)
