Chorus
The sky is green and in between somebody says the water's clean
But I bet's just a dream by then 
The President is popping pills and paying all the old folks' bills
And wearing a silver spoon around his neck
Chorus
An evil eye from the FBI came walking by and caught my eye
And I told him carefully buddy I am James Bond (don't show)
He caught my bluff and took my stuff and hit me till he'd had enough 
And took me to a place I'm not fond of
