You got that right She's something that everyone should see You got that right She's harder than any man can be You got that right Soft powdered leg kicks you repeatedly You got that right Drives you through a wall just like a nail You got that right Sweet eyes like a demon cat she's all female You got that right

Ice cream truck I hear you coming with your little song It plays and plays the same tune morning, noon and dawn I won't believe, I can't believe That you could be so deaf Ice cream truck oh Ice Cream truck Please give it a rest! ICE CREAM TRUCK! Ice cream truck my temper's melting my head like a cone I wish you'd take your ice cream truck and leave us all alone Ice cream truck don't try your luck, this is no longer fun I warned you nicely Ice cream truck, now I've got my gun ICE CREAM TRUCK! Ice cream truck oh Ice cream truck, I've blown you away Now all the kiddies will be saved from massive tooth decay All that's left is a puddle of goo from your travelling ice cream show Stray dog's come to lick it up--whaddya think of that? Huh? ICE CREAM TRUCK

I hate you more Much more than that I'll bend you over And bend you back You just don't get it Your bed is mine You just don't get it Sweet valentine I hate you more Much more than that You took me over I'll take me back You sold me out And jacked me up Took all my love And ripped it up I hate you more Much more than that You took me over I'll take me back

Bury Me Slow 02:34
Bury me slow I can taste you deep down below Cover me slow Because I love you No need to burn my remains Sweet formaldehyde warms my veins I'm cold, but I feel no pains 'Cept I still love you Everything goes so slow Impatient adagios Come and share all your woes 'Cause I still love you. The daisies you left are still there Wish I could put them in your hair Eyes glazed, I just lie and stare 'Cause I still love you It's damp but my bones are dry 'Cause you came to kiss me goodbye I'll pretend it's in your bed I lie 'Cause I still love you Everything goes so slow Impatient adagios Come and share all your woes 'Cause I still love you The daisies you left are still there Wish I could put them in your hair Eyes glazed, I just lie and stare And think of you.

What's that bloodstain near your mouth Muddy mud stain Ya' know ya' knock me out You're the one teenage girls talk about Kindly move aside so she can waltz through the room You know she's got that spark Jaws they drop They really hit the floor Season's stop Ya' know ya' want some more Puppies start to squeal Kitties hiss and scratch Heads they start to reel Cars begin to crash She's moving parts Without a human heart A gal of steel With junkie sex appeal She's the one Looking for her next meal She's the one Who's luck is so unreal Puppies start to squeal Kitties hiss and scratch Heads they start to reel Cars begin to crash She'll look you up and then she'll look you down She'll cry for help and then she'll let you drown She's the one who's dirt is so renown She's the queen in your mom's wedding gown Puppies start to squeal Kitties hiss and scratch Heads they start to reel Cars begin to crash Oh. She's got you on the floor and she's tearing up your lil' ol' heart While she's breaking everything that you own While she's stompin' on your little ol' heart And she's wearin' all your favorite clothes While she's stompin' on your little ol' heart

Dog Show 02:03
Where did they come from? From where did they go? Everyone's going to the Dog Show Where inbred is in and outbred is out They're nipping off tails they're sewing up snouts I don't understand what is it they see They perk up their ears with dog surgery Puppies are fluffy and cuddly and warm There's no need to mold them in alien form Owners be choosy Take pride in your pets Don't take them for tail jobs at chop 'em up vets. Burn all your papers give your canine a rest Purebred puppies stem from doggie incest

No one can tell you that you're wrong No one can tell Something's may surprise you Though you may disagree No hope left inside you You're pitiful and I don't get it Something's may divide you Moral hipocracy No soul left inside you What's good for you May not be good for me No one can tell you that you're wrong No one can tell You're a stubborn wreck A souless carmel apple fraud Blaming others for the things that you do all along Come suck down your pride Admit that you are wrong Come suck down your pride Admit that you are wrong 'Cause you are wrong! No one can tell you that you're wrong No one can tell

Takin' a walk Don't chase me around the block I'm tryin' to get away from... I've been there before Don't wanna go back again I'm trying to get away from... Don't tell me what I need to do What was I feelin' when I felt you I got a lot, but I still got less Your life is a riddle, my mind is a mess
14.
Get that thing away from me Some people fear that funky space between their legs It's nothing but skin Some pudgy skin between their legs Get that thing away from me Some folks like to think that romance starts between their legs Squirt all over themselves They've got their pride between their legs Get that thing away from me

Do you think you've had enough? Mia thinks you've had enough Judy thinks you've had enough Patricia thinks you've had enough Jula thinks you've had enough! Sally thinks you've had enough Kane thinks you've had enough Ames thinks you've had enough Nelson thinks you've had enough! Do you think you've had enough? We all think you've had enough You're tough enough to overstuff And we all think you've had enough!

Coffee stains and cigarettes That's all that I've got left Since I heard about you Found out those lies were all true Since I heard about you Found out it was true Nothing learned and nothing said I glue my hands back to my head Since I heard about you Found out it those lies were all true Since I heard about you Found out it was true

People driving minivans minivans minivans People driving minivans Uh huh They come from here and they come from there And sometimes they tip over! Oh! Dogs: Time for all young boys to kiss their dogs goodnight And then start dreaming Time for boys to say goodnight to their first true loves Boys who hold their dogs so tight You'd never think they could ever be parted Time for boys to say goodnight But only for a little while

about

Darlahood was Bobsled's debut full length CD. It came out in February of 1996 on San Diego's Tacklebox records. It was produced by Sally Browder (The Muffs, The Red Aunts). Bobsled began with Jula Bell on vox/bass, Steve Drojensky on guitar, and Peter Tomlison on drums.

The second lineup morphed into an all-female version, when Jula Bell and Judy Cocuzza (Drummer for Borax, Betty Blow Torch, Cheap Chick, Priss) started jamming together. They didn’t intend to make it an all-gal lineup, but shortly after, they teamed up with Patricia Klein (guitarist for Quiver, Patsy, Lou Man Group, Infinity) and Mia Ferraro (guitarist for Hole, Bulimia Banquet, Spoon, Sapphic Musk). After Patricia left to do Patsy full time, Sharon Nighland (aka Sharon Needles bassist of Tongue, Butt Trumpet, Betty Blow Torch, Legal Weapon, Priss, Cheap Chick) joined the crew, and it was another perfect fit.

Together they created an incredibly unique and satisfying sound. They played hard, fast, tight, and were infinitely charming as well as punk as f–k. Fans dug Bobsled’s sing-a-ble anthems and infectious harmonies, many of which were about female empowerment. They blasted sexual stereotypes and came up with some very poignant, yet playful songs. Not only were the ladies highly proficient musicians, they were also all about donning silly hats and outfits, in turn, each Bobsled show felt like a special occasion.

The majority of Bobsled’s touring was with Final Conflict and FYP. Bobsled, are considered to be Riot Matriarchs, and an inspiration for the Riot Grrrl movement.
