 In this zany town.

 Pick out some brazilian nuts
 For your engagement.
 Check that expiration date man,
 It's later than you think.

 You can't enjoy yourself, I can't enjoy myself.
 You can't enjoy yourself, I can't enjoy myself.
 Move that swing,
 And watch it break straight like an ox.

 But I won't be there
 To live you,
 Ah ah ah.

 and then we'll be,
 Five times forever,
 And we'll never be lost.
