Lyrics

I was working in a liquor store in San Bernardino
Summer of 1983
The liquor store got robbed while I was stocking up the cooler
Took a 40 and I went home and wrote a song
I wrote a song called take the skinheads bowling
So won’t you take the skinheads bowling take them bowling
It’s a song that don’t mean anything
It’s a song that put me on a different trajectory
Take the skinheads bowling take them bowling
Co-founded the band with a guy named David McDaniel
Had a calling from God and left the band
He went on missions all around the world
While I toured around
Meeting girls that liked the song called
Take the skinheads bowling
Take the skinheads bowling take them bowling
I wrote a song called take the skinheads bowling
Reverend McDaniel built an orphanage
Sadly, you’ve never heard of him and you barely heard of me
Though I wrote a song called take the skinheads bowling
