Avenger (Rock Version)

[STAGE BANTER]

ADAM: Uh, this next song is entitled "Avenger." It's about taking a large crane, picking up jerks, and throwing 'em away in the ocean. You'll like this one a lot

(Count-in clicks)

ADAM: Ready?

(Drums start playing, no one else does)

ADAM: Are all of you ready?

(Count-in clicks)

[SONG BEGINS]

Ever think to yourself about an option?
A different way to be?
Lets round up the no-good dudes
And put 'em on an island in the middle of the sea

Ever think to yourself about an option?
A different way to be?
Lets round up the no-good dudes
And put 'em on an island in the middle of the sea

I thought of a plan two years ago
It seemed to solve any problem
Any single problem, that is, I think I oughta know
It involved a heavy piece of machinery
That has the responsibility of lifting an entire country

Number one, I pick up that fuck face from the Deadguy show
Who beat me up for no reason
Number two comes the entire Canadian border patrol
They stole money from me

Sometimes
It's hard to believe that they're brethren of you and me
I got an excellent idea
Build an island where we dump the rest of the world
Or maybe just you and me

Here's how it works
I use the crane to pick up Isreal
And softly place it in Wyoming, where it thrives real well
Single-handedly, I solved the Middle East
And on the way I got a Nobel Prize for peace

Number one, I pick up that guy from the Deadguy show
Number two, I scoop up, up, up
The entire Canadian border patrol
Yeah

Sometimes
It's hard to believe that they're brethren of you and me
I got an excellent idea
Build an island where we dump the rest of the world
Or maybe just you and me

[Spoken]
I saw you walking down the street the other day. You were going one way, I was going the other. We both walked right by! We didn't say a word. We used to be this close, we used to be like brothers. But now, because of one time, one word, one phrase, it's over!

Ever think to yourself about an option?
A different way to be?
Lets round up the no-good dudes
And put 'em on an island in the middle of the sea

Ever think to yourself about an option?
A different way to be?
Lets round up the no-good dudes
And put 'em on an island in the middle of the sea
