Description:
The Brothers have already warned of the reliance of technology in their astute observations in Hillbilly Satellite Removal.

The boys have just had their first look at a GQ magazine and are shocked to find that they don't look like the varmints inside!

So now they expose you to the dangers of cosmetic enhancement and how it's no use playing with what you were dealt.

BE WARNED!!! Plastic eyes = lots of lies!

Lyrics:
A New Face In Town

I’m fed up with the bags in my eyes,
See how much they’ve grown in size
Pretty shockin’ - it’s a disgrace.
When you’re looking in my face, you can tell the human race
Age is a thing that never, ever lies…
I need a new face in town…

Saw this fella on a teevee station
Said he came from United Nations
Tried to fix my head with all his talk.
Went outside just for a walk, never knew how much I’d shock
With the worst face in God’s holy creation…

Cats would run and dogs would bark
As if they’d all just seen a shark
All because of me and my ‘boat race’
Then I thought, ‘I need a new face’ and things just started picking up pace; I didn’t need to hide out in the dark…

So a plastics guy done fixed my eyes
And very soon to my surprise
The ladies started chasin’ after me.
I was proud as proud as proud can be,
Until I found out I was all at sea
When I had to cover up with all the lies.

So take it from me, a man in the know
That pretty sure wherever you go
Your face is what you give and what you get.
Don’t get all moody about it yet, and never try to, ever, ever fret,
‘cos a brand new face just ain’t the way to go.

An’ don’t go sayin’ you need a change of pace
N’ be at peace and honest, that’s your ace
Be a man and face your future
Don’t live a lie, ‘cos it doesn’t suit ya,
With your handsome, happy, lived in kinda face.

You guys shouldn't make your fans wait in line this long again!

Is it true? Did Johnny Cash really visit Willie in a dream and pass on his vocal chords?

Great story!

Big smile on my face here boys! Love the backing track, but sounds like you need a bass player through my 'phones (apart from the little solo bits at the end). Vocals are perfect, and the whole thing rocks. I LOVE this! Really good to hear something different!!!!

It's a tuff call to play slap and turn the pages of the magazine at the same time....

Now that conjours up some images!

Thanks for tuning in!

Willie's the man with the Motherwell Cowboy Vocals rustlin' your ear drums. The man can throw the words out faster than I can hear them.

Rumor has it that Hank Skank tried his darnedest to accompany the vocals and threw out the back of his tonsils trying! That's just what I heard on Entertainment Tonight in an interview with Gwenyth Paltrow and Bruce Willis.

Apparently, they party with the Skank Bros, but then again, who doesn't?

a welcome slice of no-nonsense wisdom, and nicely discarding the rumours surrounding the surgically-enhanced anonymity of the band, by the way. Uncle Dave Macon would have been proud.

Ha-ha! &mdash 08/16/07 - 04:44:03 PM
Youve got it all!
Cheers

Yep - we got it all ! &mdash 08/16/07 - 05:01:19 PM
Bags, lines, wrinkles....the lot!

We use the same face cream as Willie Nelson.

Fact.
