• The video for the single “Hi” was nominated for an MTV Woody.
• Psapp have been awarded three BMI awards for their theme music for Grey’s Anatomy.

• Psapp’s instrument collection now fills two rooms and includes water pipes, a family of Casios and Bontempi organs, several egg slicers and is home to Brunhilde the famous mechanical chicken.

The Fly
In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey Butane in my veins and Im out to cut the junkie With the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose Kill the headlights and put it in neutral Stock car flamin with a loser and the cruise control Babys in reno with the vitamin d Got a couple of couches, sleep on the love-seat Someone came in sayin Im insane to complain About a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt Dont believe everything that you breathe You get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve So shave your face with some mace in the dark Savin all your food stamps and burnin down the trailer park
Yo. cut it.
Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me?
Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me?
Forces of evil on a bozo nightmare Ban all the music with a phony gas chamber cuz ones got a weasel and the others got a flag Ones on the pole, shove the other in a bag With the rerun shows and the cocaine nose-job The daytime crap of the folksinger slob He hung himself with a guitar string A slab of turkey-neck and its hangin from a pigeon wing You cant write if you cant relate Trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate And my time is a piece of wax fallin on a termite Thats chokin on the splinters
Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me? (get crazy with the cheese whiz) Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me? (drive-by body-pierce) (yo bring it on down) Soooooooyy....
(Im a driver, Im a winner; things are gonna change I can feel it)
Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me? I cant believe you Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me? Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me? schprechen sie deutches, baby Soy un perdedor Im a loser baby, so why dont you kill me? know what Im sayin?
