O Vaselina. Pay at the throat & take her pigtail in yr teeth...fake it again! Better button yr lip before you go: One-foot-in-the-bonepot-&-the-other-go-on-top-of-it All-turning-counterclockwise-&-roll-yr-belly-out! Top-lip-do-a-doubleknot-&-a-bottom-one-in-an-eggcup-&-roll-em-up-in-a-rubberband-to-keep-yr-dinner-down! & when the shove hit my vaselina took me for it. Red-clot-make-a-valentine-for-a-blue-dot-on-a-gallow-tree-so-shake-out-them-pigeon-toes-&-make-a-doggy-come! What cat got yr rubber tongue? So go & take it back & sew it on! Fake it again...roll out the gurney! Don't worry I'm a good driver! Tie up the pillowsack honey! What bone drags me to yr eye s-socket vaselina? What can four feet pound & flatten? So bring the pill back up & ride it to me past the line of yr 40-car motorcade (O vaselina make me up like vaselina) Raise old glory high while I do it to you again. Throw me back in!
Talk Potty into the machine (& before I come you believe it) But don't turn around till you see another king coming. I heard you say to the tightrope walker high above yr head: I will take you down! I will take you down! (One dollar bill won't buy no girl another pet!) An arrow through my spleen yeah pull the switch so I feel it but flip me over when you see the underside burning.
