Thank God and Elvis and Scooby Doo
whew!
thank God and Elvis and Scooby Doo
that you finally heard my song and came along
without reservation or hesitation
"a celebration to last throughout the years"
in the immortal words of Kool and the Gang
dang! damn! green eggs and ham!
I learned my lessons
yes sir
I did
baa baa black sheep
this little Bo Peep had no wool
so I broke the cane over my knee and played
the fool
school's out FOREVER
this I know
'cause your mojo told me so
you don't wear a chef's hat
you don't pick your nose
you let me read your books
and wear
your clothes
so I'll marry you in Memphis
and let the TV be our window
in a black satin room
armed with Benadryl and Rolling Rock
and citrus perfume.
