VS. 1
Some people say eat I say let your blood drain
In the end, son, the numbers get your brain
Don't call me a fish and don't make me shoot
I'm a lush 'till I die and I ain't gettin' cute
CHORUS
Oh Wally, the roses are out today
Come on and get your slippers on it's gonna rain
Got a clothesline to my window and I ain't lettin' go
Death and doom are above, head down below
VS. 2
Make me crawl and itch, honey, I don't mind
Stick a nail in my foot and fill it with lime
Bring me a garbage can and a rattlesnake skin
Shake that motorcade and guard those twins
VS. 3
Five thousand lions all in the same clothes
Blowing ski resorts all up their noses
I feel well rested, may god bless us all
I'm forgetting how to walk and learning to crawl
