Lyrics (from Phans.com)
see cot is a friend of mine,
he's chillin in the back lounge drinkin wine
from steamboat to johnny
across the chocolate sea
two thicker and a tall boy can
putty in the night time melt the man
the world is a pinstripe watson fan
as far as I can see
spin the ferris wheel,
chicken on the back top pushin steel,
dance all night with the back door man
by the light of a yellow moon
tank? tequila song,
a little bit of mary all night long,
the big black bag and the red balloon
and the sun always comes up much too soon
hot coffee and scrambled eggs,
the back of the worm and the wooden leg,
transfusion and a turkey ham,
two bushwhackers and an angry ram
pete threw a bomb and he put the hole,
(<> and a he took the hold)????, <-- no
clue
glass table in a five star room,
and the sun always comes up much to soon
Push on to the day (x16)

See cotton is a friend of mine
He's chillin' in the back lounge drinkin' wine
From a steam boat to Johnny Jordan's
Flying across the chocolate sea
Too different than a tall boy can
The glitter of the nighttime, alpha red
The road is a pinstripe watson fan
as far as I could see
Fair as Fair is Ferris wheel
chicken on the black top pushin' steel
wounded man with a back door gram
and the light of the silver moon
two tank tequila solved
a little bit of every all night long
the big black bag and the red balloon
the sun always come up much too soon
Hot coffee and scrambled eggs
the back of the wood and wooden leg
mailmen, fretting hand, hornet's nest
and the angry man
beat to the bomb
and he planted the pole
someone dig me in a Tokyo hole
five stomp in a __ room
the sun always comes up much too soon...
Tony and Russ:
it's a brand new day...
Trey: push on
till the day..
