lyrics
The fire marshal’s screaming “get me off your back”
Ain’t nobody watching, my lungs are turning black
Encephalitic mooseheads on the wall
Fire alarm ain’t working, blowin smoke in its face
She left her clothes here, she’ll be back at my place
Some time soon, maybe next fall
I pulled down all the lights, replaced them all with lead
I got so stoned I couldn’t feel my head
It’s all right now, I got granola bars in my closet
Ain’t got no friends, they don’t know my name
If I asked them what it is, they’d ask me the same
Ain’t no money to make no deposit
Got on the line, hope to find you here
So many problems, not enough beer
And I got nothing better to do than stand up right here, play guitar and sing to you
Ain’t nobody watching, my lungs are turning black
Encephalitic mooseheads on the wall
Fire alarm ain’t working, blowin smoke in its face
She left her clothes here, she’ll be back at my place
Some time soon, maybe next fall
I pulled down all the lights, replaced them all with lead
I got so stoned I couldn’t feel my head
It’s all right now, I got granola bars in my closet
Ain’t got no friends, they don’t know my name
If I asked them what it is, they’d ask me the same
Ain’t no money to make no deposit
Got on the line, hope to find you here
So many problems, not enough beer
And I got nothing better to do than stand up right here, play guitar and sing to you
