about

An absolutely true story. Except for the tattoo.

lyrics

Lawrence was a very strange boy
He had a tattoo of Nicholai Chauchescu on his forearm
Bides his time as a night watch guard
Goes to school and carries the party card — he's got ambition
Wants to be a big-time hater
Image bigger that a Chinese dictator or Joseph Stalin
Pounding back those double martinis
Pounding his fist like Mussolini
And no, no, no... no, no, no... it's Lawrence

And now we come to the second obsession
He had a lust for female attention
And it was hard to come by
Chatting up 'til his money's spent
Foaming at the mouth, he gets violent
And he doesn't see, doesn't see the connection
No he doesn't see, doesn't see the connection

Coming home at 3am
Confusion and cruelty in his mind again
Cuz they're so cold, they're so very cold
Made his way to the refrigerator
Stripped down naked and an hour later
We walked in and caught him with a head of lettuce
Fucking a head of lettuce...

The El Demento monicker came from a friend of friend who always accidentally referred to him as "Demento" instead of "Deviant" -- it gradually became an inside joke when playing without a band. ... more
