Miss Marry Ann
|
Kept her man
|
In porcupine gloves, in porcupine gloves
|
And on that day
|
As scheduled
|
They made porcupine love, porcupine love
|
|
So stiff and stuck and prickly
|
He came in and then back out quickly
|
But lord not any quicker than according to plan
|
Like a soldier, one foot in front of the other
|
|
Miss Marry Ann
|
Had a man
|
Named Stan, Stan Buttler
|
He had no antlers
|
He had no center
|
He had no enter and he had no exit
|
|
His hair was short and prickly
|
He came in and then back out quickly
|
But lord not any quicker than according to plan
|
Like a soldier, one foot in front of the other
|
|
And how he loved her apple pies,
|
How he loved her meat loaf,
|
How he loved her chicken breasts,
|
How he loved her pudding,
|
Served promptly at eight o'clock,
|
Served promptly at seven
|
Served promptly at ten o'clock,
|
And promptly at eleven heaven
|
|
Miss Marry Ann
|
Kept her cans
|
In alphabetical order
|
Miss Marry Ann
|
Began to have
|
Some thoughts of murder
|
|
Miss Marry Ann
|
Started to think
|
Real hard about her future
|
Miss Marry Ann
|
Preferred her meat
|
To be freshly butchered
|
|
Oh she killed him rather quickly
|
Man that woman was truly sickly
|
But lord not any sicker than according to plan
|
Like a soldier, one foot in front of the other
|
|
And how he loved her apple pies,
|
How he loved her meat loaf,
|
How he loved her chicken breasts,
|
How he loved her pudding,
|
Served promptly at eight o'clock,
|
Served promptly at seven
|
Served promptly at ten o'clock,
|
And promptly at eleven heaven
|
|
Miss Marry Ann
|
Kept her man
|
In porcupine gloves, in porcupine gloves
|
And on that day
|
As scheduled
|
They made porcupine love,
|
Porcupine lo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-apchu!
