Way back when I was a little bitty boy in a box Under the In the corner of the In the house half a block down the street from Bait Shop You the place
anyway, Back then was going swell And was just peachy!
Except of course for the fact That every morning My mother would me a big ol' bowl of kraut for breakfast
Big bowl of kraut! single mornin'! It was me crazy! And I to my mom, I said, "Hey, mom, what's up all the sauerkraut?"
And my dear, mother, She just looked at me a cow looks At an train And she leaned right next to me And she said, "IT'S FOR YOU!"
And then she me to the wall And stuck a funnel in my And force fed me nothing but sauer Until I was twenty-six and a half old
when I swore that someday, Someday I would get outta that And travel to a magical, far place, Where the sun is always And the air smells like root beer, And the are oh so fluffy!
Where the shriners and the Play ukuleles all day long And on the street gladly shave your back for a nickel!
wacka, doo doo, yeah!
Well, let me you, people, It long at all before my dream came true Because the next day, A radio station had this contest To see who could correctly the number Of molecules in Leonard butt
I was off by three, but I still won the prize That's right, a first class, one-way To Albuquerque! Albuquerque!
Oh You know, I'd been On a real airplane And I gotta ya It was really
Except I had to sit two large Albanian women With severe body odor And the little kid in of me throwin' up the whole time The attendants ran out of Dr. Pepper and peanuts And the movie was Bio-Dome with Pauly Shore And, oh yeah, three of the airplane burned out And we went into a And crashed into a And the exploded in a giant fireball And died! Except for me. You know
'Cause I had my table up And my seat back in the full upright Had my tray up And my seat back in the full upright Had my table up And my seat back in the full upright
Ah-ha-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha! So I from the twisted, burnin', wreckage I on my hands and knees For full days Draggin' along my big leather And my bag And my saxophone And my 12-pound bowlin' And my lucky, lucky glow-in-the-dark snorkel!
But finally I at the world famous Albuquerque Inn! Where the are oh so fluffy! And you can eat soup out of the ashtrays if you wanna It's okay, clean!
Well, I checked my room, And I down the A/C, And I on the SpectraVision, And I'm about to eat That chocolate mint on my pillow That I love so very, much, When suddenly there's a knock on the
Well, now, who that be? I say, "Who is it?" No "Who is it?" There's no "WHO IS IT!?" They're not anything
So finally, I go And I the door, And as I suspected, It's big, fat hermaphrodite With a of seagulls, haircut, And one nostril Oh, man, I it when I'm right!
So, anyway, He bursts my room, And he my lucky 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 grabbed my And I bit off his ear And he chewed off my And I took out his And he me a colonic irrigation Yes indeed-y, you better it!
And somehow in the of it all The phone got knocked off the And seconds later, I heard a voice And you know it said? tell ya what it said!
It said, "If you'd like to a call, hang up and try again If you help, Hang up and then dial operator If you'd like to a call hang up and try again. If you need Hang up and then your operator In Albuquerque!" Albuquerque!
Well, to cut a long short, He got away my snorkel But I made a vow Right and there That I not rest, I would not 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 the counter 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, outta jelly donuts." I said, "You got any cream-filled 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, outta bear claws!"
I said, "Well, in case In that case, do you have?" He says, "All I got now Is box of one dozen crazed weasels." I said, "Okay, I'll that."
So he me the box, And I up the lid, And the weasels out And they immediately latch onto my And start me all over
Oh, man, they were just nuts! They tearin' me apart! You know, I think it was just about time that a little ditty started goin' through my I believe it went a little somethin' like
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 into the With flesh-eating weasels All my face, Wavin' my all around And runnin', runnin', runnin', Like a constipated dog
And as would have it, That's when I ran into The girl of my Her name was
She was a enthusiast, a slight overbite, And hair the color of strained
never forget The first thing She to me She said, "Hey, got weasels on your face."
That's I knew it was true love
We were inseparable after Aw, we ate We bathed We even the same piece Of mint-flavored floss The world was our
So we got married, And we us a house And had two children, and Superfly Oh we so very, very, very happy, oh yeah
But then, one night, said to me, she said, "Sweetie Do you wanna join the Columbia Club?" I said, "Woah! on now, baby! I'm just not for that kind of a commitment!"
So we up, And I saw her again But that's the way things go In Albuquerque! Albuquerque!
Anyway, things started up for me, Because a week later I finally achieved my lifelong right, I got me a part-time job At the Sizzler!
I even made of the month After I put out that fire my face!
Aw yeah, was pretty 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 a big ol' sofa Up the all by himself.
So I-I say to him, I say, "Hey, you me to help you with that?" And Marty, he rolls his eyes And goes, "No, I want you to cut off my and legs with a chainsaw!"
So I did.
And then he gets all on me He's like, "Hey, man, I was being sarcastic!" Well, that's great. How was I supposed to know I'm not a reader, For cryin' out
Besides, now got A really cute - Torso-Boy! So what's he complaining
Say, that reminds me of another anecdote This guy comes up to me on the And he tells me he hasn't had a In days
Well, I what he meant, But to be funny, I took a big Out of his jugular And he's and screaming And all over, And I'm like, "Hey, on, don'tcha get it?" But he just keeps rolling on the sidewalk, and screaming, "Aaaahhhh! AaaaahhhhOhhhhh! Aaaaahhhh!" You know, missing The irony of the whole Man, some people can't take a joke, you know?
Anyway, um... was I? Kinda lost my of thought.
Uh, well, uh, OK, anyway, I-I know kind of a roundabout way Of it, but, I guess the whole I'm tryin' to make here is
I SAUERKRAUT!
