You gotta feel sorry for The Guy.
|
Oh, no reason - just brother feelin.
|
You gotta feel sorry for The Guy -
|
no reason but brother feelin.
|
A man in the rain hat had to have his say,
|
Live and let live.
|
The old man watches the water rise.
|
Man, everybody knows something's gotta give.
|
Something's gotta give.
|
And when it goes it starts rollin out of everywhere -
|
through floorboards,
|
cracks in walls,
|
oozin down the chimney, halls -
|
a real Son of Blob job.
|
Welcome to our town.
|
People swept along.
|
People swept along and how?
|
With goats,
|
cats,
|
dogs and hats,
|
oozin down the chimney backs -
|
a real Son of Blob job.
|
|
The man in the rain hat had to have his say,
|
Live and let live.
|
The old man watches the water rise.
|
Man, everybody knows something's gotta give.
|
Something's gotta give.
|
|
Something's gotta give.
|
Nations rise and fall,
|
dentist appointments forgotten by great and small -
|
mighty or humble,
|
wise man or fool,
|
rivulet or Old Man River.
|
Flaps flippin out of slots every which-a-way.
|
And when it goes it starts rollin out of everywhere.
|
The man in the rain hat had to have his say,
|
Live and let live.
|
The old man watches the water rise.
|
Man, everybody knows something's gotta give.
|
Something's gotta give.
