From the recording Lost in the Short Grass
My friend made a satirical film about her industry and I wrote the theme song. When her humourless boss fired her I wrote her a new theme song...

Lyrics
Took some time away from here
Working on my shit
While apart I made my art
And told it like it is, now I'm
Blackballed and exiled
After all these years
Blackballed and exiled
If you can't take a joke then
I'm out of here
Always planned on coming back
Healthy and renewed
But what I did on my own dime
You used as an excuse, now I'm
Blackballed and exiled
After all these years
Blackballed and exiled
If you can't take a joke then
I'm out of here
I'm out of here
Yeah
Told me we're a family
Thought you were sincere
But at the slightest doubt the knives came out
And the smiles disappeared, now I'm
Blackballed and exiled
After all these years
Blackballed and exiled
If you can't take a joke then
I'm out of here
After all these years
Blackballed and exiled
If you can't take a joke then
I'm out of here
I'm out of here
Blackballed and exiled
Blackballed and exiled
Blackballed and exiled
Blackballed and exiled
Blackballed and exiled
Blackballed and exiled
Blackballed and exiled
Blackballed and exiled
