I Don't Mean To Alarm You, But Your Mongoose Is On Fire 02:48

Mongoose - on fire Oh no oh no I turned on the sprinkler But it didn't stop the glow Mongoose fur scorches The smell was so rank But I used it to light Some pot that was dank I hope you're not alarmed Even though the mongoose was harmed The flames shot up to the sky Sadly, the mongoose did die The snakes were celebrating This momentous victory For them it was freedom From the gardener's trickery They were free to slither Wherever they please The death of the mongoose Meant they could be free I hope you're not alarmed Even though the mongoose was harmed The flames shot up to the sky Sadly, the mongoose did die The death of the mongoose was not in vain Because it only felt some brief pain But for the kingdom of snakes it was mirth Flaming mongoose the symbol of rebirth I hope you're not alarmed Even though the mongoose was harmed The flames shot up to the sky Sadly, the mongoose did die I hope you're not alarmed Even though the mongoose was harmed The flames shot up to the sky Sadly, the mongoose did die

Well I got bit when I pet my dog Flat tire on the pickup truck I drank the last of the whiskey Cause I've been real down on luck Wanted to buy a lotto ticket But didn't even have a buck So I ate the whole bag of doggie treats Cause I just don't give a..... WELL Tried to listen to talk radio But my stereo was broke I went to see a comedian Turned out I was the joke I got me some fries from Mickey D's They made me damn near choke And I'm clean out of cigarettes So I can't even have a smoke Holy moly, what's goin' on I just can't figure it out It feels like pandemonium I just want to scream and shout Guess I ran my mouth too many times Like it was in a big 'ol race And now the only thing I got Is the frown on my stupid face The buttons fell off all my shirts There are holes all through my jeans All that's left in my cupboards Is two cans of sardines Had to mow the grass And ran over a nest of bees Now I've got welts rising up From my forehead to my knees Holy moly, what's goin' on I just can't figure it out It feels like pandemonium I just want to scream and shout Guess I ran my mouth too many times Like it was in a big 'ol race And now the only thing I got Is the frown on my stupid face Knelt and prayed "Dear Jesus" But he said I can't be saved Things keep goin this way Put me in an early grave Cut my face on the razor When I went to shave And in the ocean at the beach Got knocked down by a wave Holy moly, what's goin' on I just can't figure it out It feels like pandemonium I just want to scream and shout Guess I ran my mouth too many times Like it was in a big 'ol race And now the only thing I got Is the frown on my stupid face Holy moly, what's goin' on I just can't figure it out It feels like pandemonium I just want to scream and shout Guess I ran my mouth too many times Like it was in a big 'ol race And now the only thing I got Is the frown on my stupid face

I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. You know that one sound that's on your keyboard. You know that one sound that you never use. I had to push it. I wanted to know why. I tried to reach the sky . . . with bossa nova. The bossa nova is fun, the bossa nova is great. The bossa nova is fun, the bossa nova is great. The bossa nova is fun, the bossa nova is great. The bossa nova is fun, the bossa nova is great. It's great. I'm sayin' it's great. If it weren't great, it would be not great. I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Talkin' 'bout the bossa nova. The bossa nova, everyone - I want to introduce every daughter and son To the smooooooth sound of the bossa nova. Of the bossa nova. Listen to that bossa nova groove. It moves and grooves right through your shoes. And then you see that you can be Deep in a sea . . . of glee Because you have a reason to choose the freedom to win or the audacity to lose So then you go When you're on the mic You just think about Rappin' it up, and then you Know that ya got the right thing to do, When ya see it though a bucket full of glue. I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. I pushed the bossa nova button and this is what came out. Give me a bowl of maraschino cherries Give me a bowl of maraschino cherries Give me a bowl of maraschino cherries And I will eat them all!

Call it like a hotline Fly it like an airline Push it to the red line Like you never did before No time like the present Neon and fluorescent The beat is so incessant Yet all you want is more Heat it like a kettle Pedal to the metal Reach a higher level Take it to the top Life is what you make it There's no time to waste it You have got to face it It's poppin we can't stop Party up, party down When you hear the sound Let it move you all around When the rhythm starts to pound Party up, party down The best you've ever found It's coming to your town You can feel it in the ground Breaking, here's your newsflash Spending all your loose cash To catch this wave, a huge splash Crashing on the scene Come on board this starship Get hip to this new flip We have got the hot tip Far beyond routine Peek into this keyhole And you can see the people A long way past the steeples That represent the past We are on the upswing Bearers of the new thing Everyone can be the king This cannot be surpassed Party up, party down When you hear the sound Let it move you all around When the rhythm starts to pound Party up, party down The best you've ever found It's coming to your town You can feel it in the ground You can be a part of generation and creation We will plant our flag and we can have a whole new nation When you open up to being all you ever dreamed Then the party's up, we'll party down like we are fiends Party up, party down When you hear the sound Let it move you all around When the rhythm starts to pound Party up, party down The best you've ever found It's coming to your town You can feel it in the ground Party up, party down When you hear the sound Let it move you all around When the rhythm starts to pound Party up, party down The best you've ever found It's coming to your town You can feel it in the ground

ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I am an extra terrestrial And I live on a planet far away I'm not an alien but another life form That you do not know You sit and you stare at me As if you knew just what I was Feed me Reece's Pieces, love me to death But at the end of the day you will say “I don't know what it is." ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien You cannot grasp it but I’m not of this world I come from a billion miles from here It’s been a fun time living with you But I keep thinking it’s almost time to go Been working hard to create a new phone That I can call the place that I came from And when they come I will get onto the ship No time for goodbyes - it will be like I wasn’t here ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien When I call, will you answer for me? Is there still a home for me to phone? If I drift over to another galaxy A corner of the universe all to myself Can I return again? ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien I'm not an alien ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home ET phone home
