lyrics

When your eyes are wet your underpants are dry
and the moon is as cold as a firefly
There's a light that burns and a kind that sighs
like the friend that could have been, but decided to die
And it's kind of important and it's kind of inane
like the computer they turned into the human brain
Like the loneliness creepin' up your wired insides
There's a smooth entry to this bumpy ride

And all you pudgy short men with your funny quips
You sultry hot mamas with your curvy hips
You skinny geeks and ya macho dicks
we're all prone to get boned or shot in the sticks, so,

Carry your bricks, put on your old kicks
I'm gonna mortar my heart
somewhere down in the mix
I'm gonna border my county
with thorns in betwixt
The tunnel of love
and the hell of hot licks.
