Way back I was just a little bitty boy in a box Under the In the of the basement In the house half a block down the street from Bait Shop You know the
anyway, Back then was going swell And everything was peachy!
of course for the undeniable fact That single morning My mother would me a big ol' bowl of kraut for breakfast
Big of sauer kraut! single mornin'! It was me crazy! And I to my mom, I said, "Hey, mom, up with all the sauerkraut?"
And my dear, mother, She just at me like a cow looks At an oncoming And she leaned down next to me And she said, "IT'S FOR YOU!"
And she tied me to the wall And stuck a in my mouth And force fed me nothing but sauer I was twenty-six and a half years old
That's when I that someday, Someday I would get outta that And to a magical, far away place, Where the sun is shining And the air smells like root beer, And the are oh so fluffy!
the shriners and the lepers Play ukuleles all day long And anyone on the Will shave your back for a nickel!
wacka, doo doo, yeah!
Well, let me you, people, It wasn't long at all my dream came true Because the next day, A local radio had this contest To see who could correctly the number Of molecules in Leonard butt
I was off by three, but I won the grand prize That's right, a first class, one-way To Albuquerque! Albuquerque!
Oh You know, I'd never On a real before And I tell ya It was really
Except I had to sit Between two Albanian women With excruciatingly body odor And the little kid in of me Kept throwin' up the whole The flight ran out of Dr. and salted peanuts And the in-flight movie was Bio-Dome with Shore And, oh yeah, three of the engines burned out And we into a tailspin And crashed into a And the plane exploded in a giant And died! Except for me. You why?
'Cause I had my tray up And my seat back in the full upright Had my tray up And my seat back in the full upright Had my tray up And my seat back in the full upright
Ah-ha-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha! So I crawled the twisted, burnin', wreckage I crawled on my and knees For three full Draggin' along my big leather And my bag And my tenor And my 12-pound ball And my lucky, lucky autographed snorkel!
But finally I arrived at the world Holiday Inn! Where the are oh so fluffy! And you can eat soup Right out of the if you wanna okay, they're clean!
Well, I checked my room, And I turned the A/C, And I on the SpectraVision, And I'm about to eat That little chocolate mint on my I love so very, very much, When suddenly a knock on the door
Well, now, who that be? I say, "Who is it?" No "Who is it?" no answer "WHO IS IT!?" They're not sayin'
So finally, I go And I the door, And as I suspected, It's big, fat hermaphrodite a flock of seagulls, haircut, And one nostril Oh, man, I it when I'm right!
So, anyway, He into my room, And he grabs my snorkel, And I'm like, "Hey, you have that! That been just like a snorkel to me!"
And like, "Tough!" And I'm like, "Give it!" And like, "Make me!" And I'm like, "'Kay!"
So I his leg And he my esophagus And I bit off his ear And he chewed off my And I took out his And he gave me a colonic Yes indeed-y, you believe it!
And somehow in the of it all The phone got off the hook And twenty later, I heard a voice And you what it said? tell ya what it said!
It said, "If like to make a call, Please hang up and try If you help, Hang up and then dial your If you'd to make a call Please up and try again. If you help up and then dial your operator In Albuquerque!" Albuquerque!
Well, to cut a story short, He got with my snorkel But I a solemn vow then and there That I not rest, I not sleep for an instant, the one-nostrilled man Was brought to But first, I decided to buy some
So I got in my car And I drove over to the shop And I walked on up to the guy behind the And he says, "Yeah, want?"
I said, "You got any donuts?" He said, "Nah, we're glazed donuts." I say, "Well, you got any donuts?" He said, "No, we're outta donuts." I said, "You got any Bavarian donuts?" He said, "No, we're outta Bavarian donuts." I said, "You got any rolls?" He said, "No, outta cinnamon rolls!" I said, "You got any fritters?" He said, "No, we're outta fritters!" I said, "You got any claws?" He said, "Wait a minute, go check."
"Naw, we're outta claws!"
I said, "Well, in that In case, what do you have?" He says, "All I got now Is this box of one Starving weasels." I said, "Okay, take that."
So he me the box, And I up the lid, And the jump out And immediately latch onto my face And bitin' me all over
Oh, man, they were goin' nuts! They tearin' me apart! You know, I think it was about that time a little ditty started goin' through my head I believe it went a little like this:
DOH! Get 'em off me! Get 'em off me! Ohhh! No, get 'em off, get 'em off! Oh, oh God, oh God! Oh, get 'em off me! Oh, oh God! Ah, aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!
I ran out the street With flesh-eating weasels All my face, my arms all around And runnin', runnin', runnin', Like a constipated dog
And as would have it, exactly when I ran into The of my dreams Her was Zelda
She was a enthusiast, With a overbite, And hair the of strained peaches
I'll forget The first thing She to me She said, "Hey, You've got weasels on face."
That's when I it was true love
We were after that Aw, we ate We bathed We even shared the same Of dental floss The world was our
So we got married, And we us a house And had two children, Nathaniel and Oh we were so very, very, happy, oh yeah
But then, one night, said to me, she said, "Sweetie Do you join the Columbia Record Club?" I said, "Woah! on now, baby! I'm just not ready for kind of a commitment!"
So we up, And I never saw her But that's the way things go In Albuquerque! Albuquerque!
Anyway, things started up for me, Because about a week I finally achieved my lifelong right, I got me a part-time job At the Sizzler!
I even employee of the month After I put out that fire my face!
Aw yeah, everybody was jealous Of me after I was a lot of attitude.
Okay, one time, I was out in the lot, Tryin' to remove my earwax With a pencil, I see this guy Marty Tryin' to carry a big ol' Up the all by himself.
So I-I say to him, I say, "Hey, you want me to help you that?" And Marty, he just rolls his And goes, "No, I want you to cut off my arms and legs a chainsaw!"
So I did.
And then he all indignant on me He's like, "Hey, man, I was being sarcastic!" Well, that's great. How was I to know that? I'm not a reader, For out loud
Besides, now got A really nickname - Torso-Boy! So what's he complaining
Say, that reminds me of another amusing This guy up to me on the street And he me he hasn't had a bite In days
Well, I what he meant, But to be funny, I took a big Out of his jugular And he's yelling and And all over, And I'm like, "Hey, on, don'tcha get it?" But he just keeps around on the sidewalk, and screaming, "Aaaahhhh! AaaaahhhhOhhhhh! Aaaaahhhh!" You know, completely The of the whole situation Man, some people just can't take a joke, you
Anyway, um... was I? Kinda lost my of thought.
Uh, well, uh, OK, anyway, I-I know it's kind of a way Of it, but, I the whole point I'm tryin' to make here is
I SAUERKRAUT!
That's all I'm really to say And, by the way, if one day you happen to up And yourself in an existential quandry, Full of loathing and And wracked with the and isolation Of pitiful meaningless existence, At least you can take a small bit of In knowing that somewhere out in this Crazy ol' universe of ours, There's a little place Albuquerque!
