Overkill (Album Version)

Overkill - Jimmy Buffett

Legal problems getting thick and hazy

Look at the people getting rich and crazy

Locked up in mansions on the top of the hill

Someone needs to tell them about overkill

Overkill overkill

Such a megalo modern problematic ill

Climb too fast and shove too hard

You'll be pushing up the daisies in the old bone yard

Ahh uhh

Ahh uhh

Ahh uhh

Ahh uhh

I went to find the truth in the Himalayas

Bundled up half-frozen munching Milky Ways

Found a shaman in a diaper with a poppy pot

When I asked if he was cold he said "I just think hot"

Overkill overkill

Such a megalo modern problematic ill

Climb too fast and shove too hard

You'll be pushing up the daisies in some old bone yard

Ahh uhh

Ahh uhh

Out in Hollywood the paper money rolls

They feed their egos instead of their souls

A million here a million there a mindless corporate dance

Gettin' paid for f**king off in the south of France

They don't do the shows but they act like the stars

They fly around in G-4's and suck on big cigars

It ain't about the talent it ain't about the skill

It's all about the silly stupid horse sh*t deal

Overkill overkill

Such a megalo modern problematic ill

Climb too fast and shove too hard

You'll be pushing up the daisies in the old bone yard

I got no corporate gig I got no guru

I don't own ocean front in Honolulu

You write the big checks but I pay your bills

Now someone's got to tell you about overkill

Overkill overkill

Such a megalo modern problematic ill

Climb too fast and shove too hard

You'll be pushing up the daisies in some old bone yard

Overkill overkill

Such a megalo modern problematic ill

Climb too fast and shove too hard

You'll be pushin' up the daisies in some old bone yard
