When i woke up this morning, things were lookin' bad | |
Seem like total silence was the only friend i had | |
Bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down... and won | |
And it was twelve o'clock before i realized | |
That i was havin' .. no fun | |
Chorus: | |
But fortunately i have the key to escape reality | |
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile | |
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while | |
Won't you please tell the man i didn't kill anyone | |
No i'm just tryin' to have me some fun | |
Last time i checked my bankroll, | |
It was gettin' thin | |
Sometimes it seems like the bottom | |
Is the only place i've been | |
I chased a rainbow down a one-way street... dead end | |
And all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen | |
Repeat chorus: | |
Well, i sat down in my closet with all my overalls | |
Tryin' to get away | |
From all the ears inside my walls | |
I dreamed the police heard | |
Everything i thought... what then? | |
Well i went to court | |
And the judge's name was hoffman | |
Ah but fortunately i have the key to escape reality | |
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile | |
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while | |
Won't you please tell the man i didn't kill anyone | |
No i'm just tryin' to have me some fun | |
Well done, hot dog bun, my sister's a nun |
