We only ever played this song once and then promptly forgot how to play it.
lyrics
I’m with my friend and we’re swimming up a mountain
A forest fire burns before our eyes
I recognize it must be the OxyContin
And in a flash, my close amigo dies
Then I’m somewhere in the middle sitting kitty corner
From the edge of the seat where I stand
On a record machine, spinning out of control
Then I jump, oh where do I land?
I grab a twig and it turns into an eyelash
Bats itself, and I then take flight
I quickly crash in a pile of crabgrass
But it feels like a couch tonight
I stand up, brush my pants and take a gander around
And I seem to be in nowhere town.
As the bass clarinet flavored lollipop
Ponders the existence of nouns
I sprint away, looking for a pool of water
How messed up did I get my face?
I grab a broom, just like I was Harry Potter
Another hooligan joins the chase
