Madman drummers bummers
Ab

and Indians in the summer
Bb

Eb

With a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
Ab

As the adolescent pumps
Bb

Eb
Eb

his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder,
Ab

feelin' kinda older
Bb

Eb

I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing
Ab

sneezing and wheezing

The calliope crashed to the ground
Verse 2
Eb
Eb

Some all-hot half-shot
Ab
Ab

was headin' for the hot spot
Eb
Eb

Snappin' his fingers, clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot
Ab
Ab

was tied into a lover's knot
Eb
Eb

With a whatnot in her hand
And now young Scott with a slingshot
Ab
Ab

Finally found a tender spot
Eb
Eb

and throws his lover in the sand
Ab
Ab

And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers
Daddy's within earshot, save the buckshot,
Eb
Eb

turn up the band

Ab
Ab

Some brimstone baritone anti-cyclone
Eb
Eb

Rolling stone preacher from the East
He says, dethrone the dictaphone
Ab
Ab

Hit it in its funny bone,
Eb
Eb

that's where they expect it least
And some new-mown chaperone was
Ab
Ab

standin' in the corner all alone
Eb
Eb

Watchin' the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone
Ab
Ab

was messin' with his frozen zone
Eb
Eb

To remind him of the feeling of romance

Some silicone sister
with her manager's mister
Ab

Eb

Told me I got what it takes
Bb
Bb

She said, I'll turn you on, sonny
Ab
Ab

To something strong if you'll play that song
Eb
Eb

with the funky break
Bb
Bb

And Go-Cart Mozart
was checkin' out the weather chart
Ab
Ab

Eb
Eb

To see if it was safe to go outside
Bb
Bb

And little Early-Pearly
came by in her curly- whirly
Ab
Ab

Eb
Eb

And asked me if I needed a ride
Bb
Bb

Oh, some hazard
Verse 4
Eb
Eb

from Harvard
Ab
Ab

was skunked on beer
Eb
Eb

Playin' backyard bombardier
Yes, and Scotland Yard was trying hard
Ab
Ab

They sent some dude with a calling card
Eb
Eb

He said, do what you like, but don't do it here
Well, I jumped up, turned around,
Ab
Ab

spit in the air
Fell on the ground and asked him
Eb
Eb

which was the way back home
He said, take a right at the light
Ab
Ab

Keep goin' straight until night
Eb
Eb

And then, boy, you're on your own
Verse 5
Eb
Eb

And now in Zanzibar
Ab
Ab

A shootin' star was ridin' in a side car
Eb
Eb

Hummin' a lunar tune
Yes, and the avatar said, blow the bar
Ab
Ab

first remove the cookie jar
We're gonna teach those boys
Eb
Eb

to laugh too soon
And some kidnapped handicap
Ab
Ab

was complainin'
That he caught the clap
Eb
Eb

from some mousetrap he bought last night
Well, I unsnapped his skull cap
Ab
Ab

and between his ears
Eb
Eb

I saw a gap and figured he'd be alright
