Pretty goodGoing on, feeling strong I quit my job blowing leaves, telephone bills up my sleevesChoking like a one man dustball, freedom rock slimeball talking in codeWe went down, lit up the shack, grabbed me a beer out of the sackEverybody bent over twice, painting the walls, throwing some dice Leaping up into the air getting juiced up beyond beliefAnd they were singin' like this Winos throwing frisbees at the sunBurnt my soul between the bunNow I'm wounded, now I'm drunkNow I'm runnin' like a flaming pigOh yeah Scraping off the attitudeOld man eating all my foodDon't be kind, don't be rudeJust shake your boots and let it all get looseOh yeah, my goodness Fluffy clouds, lovely rainbowsI'm sad, a soft and snuggly placeFluffy clouds, I'm sad and unhappy...yppahnu dna das Winos throwing frisbees at the sunBurnt my soul between the bunNow I'm wounded, now I'm drunkNow I'm runnin' like a flaming pigOh yeah Scraping off the attitudeOld man eating all my foodDon't be kind, don't be rudeJust shake your boots and let it all get looseOh yeah, my goodness Oh yeah, I like it like thatOh that is coldSomebody put a flamethrower on thatUh-huh, oh my goodnessTake me down to the depotSomebody put me down on the busOh yeah, I like it like thatSomebody burn me a plate of sassafrassOh yeah...
