Blockhead Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Never leaves a gap
Unfilled
Always pays on time
Always fits the bill
He comes well prepared
[Chorus]
Cube top
Squared off
Eight corners
90-degree angles
Flat top
Stares straight ahead
Stock parts
Blockhead!
[Verse 2]
Never tips over
Stands up on his own
He is a blockhead
Thinking man full grown
He comes well prepared
[Chorus]
Cube top
Squared off
Eight corners
90-degree angles
Flat top
Stares straight ahead
Snake eyes
Blockhead
[Chorus]
Flat top
Stares straight ahead
Stock parts
Blockhead!
[Verse 3]
Never tips over
Stands up on his own
He is a blockhead
Thinking man full grown
He comes well prepared
[Chorus]

Blockhead (Blockhead!)
Cube top (Blockhead!)
Squared off (Blockhead!)
