GIMPY STODDARD


By Sludge



Gimpy Stoddard fat and fierce 
friendly like a bear 
pulled a driver from his car 
and held him in the air 

He rode a big fat shovel 
he walked with a bad limp 
his face skin looked like leather 
his friends all called him Gimp 

He wasn't a 1 percenter 
a citizen or a Cop 
he didn't like snooty frumpees 
or jobs that involved a mop 

Gimpy dint like beepin fools 
and quirks that couldn't drive... 
sometimes when he shared a lesson 
he really stirred the hive 

he once grabbed Bradly Fenator 
shook him like a stick 
Gimpy said, "learn to drive, 
you stupid little prick." 

Ruffled Bradley called the coppers 
they hunted Gimpy down. 
They asked him many questions 
bout throwin Bradley round 

Gimpy answered quick and sure 
"his mind ain't on the road 
I tried to wake him up abit 
but no-one done got throwed." 

You pulled him threw the sunroof 
you shook him round and round 
and when you were all done with him 
you throwed him to the ground 

It's true ole gimp admitted 
"I pulled him thru the top, 
I tole him at the stop signs 
You really oughta stop" 

"I esplained heeda got a ticket 
if I had been a cop 
and set him down quite gently 
but his body went kerplop" 

The coppers wern't convinced 
they cuffed up Gimpy's wrists 
started reading rights and stuff 
and checking little lists 

His rap-sheet came thru in static 
it was really quite a batch 
the tinstars were high fivin 
they were proudful of their catch 

there was assault with a weapon 
in 69 and again in 73 
disturbin the quiet , incitin a riot 
and speeding a time or three 

failing to stop failing to yeild 
failing to be just right 
handlebars were too high 
and pipes too loud at night 

they spouted important radio stuff 
and talked in winks and hints 
They took him to the lock up 
they stole his fingerprints 

they left him in a hole all nite 
they took his belt and things 
they took his dough they took his keys 
they even took his rings 

he sat all night with wife beaters 
with burglars and with drunks 
he decided to keep a close eye 
on two steroid pumped up punks 

In the morning the Jailhouse blue 
shuffled him b'fore the judge 

hair all awry, pants fallen down 
shackled so he could hardly Budge 

Mr. Stoddard it looks to me, harumpf... 
that you're the habitual sort .. 
can't follow the rules, can't walk the line 
can't stay out of court 

We will rid the world of your kind 
If I become senator 
30 days or one thousand dollars 
said the stern judge Fenator 

Gimpy winked at the judge 
he gave him a gap toothed grin 
then he flicked four fingers 
from b'neath a bearded chin 

Judge he said you got the power 
and we all know why we're here, 
to watch you fix and rule your world 
with not justice...but with fear 

I accept your fine in dollars 
and your ole harsh sentence too, 
but if you really want to save some folks 
here's somethin you can do 

take yer mamas boy Bradley 
and tell him to stay alive... 
Then take away his car keys 
til he's sharp enough to drive 

Gimpy Stoddard fat and feirce 
friendly like a bear 
now he's doin ninety days 
for waivin one finger in the air
