Backflip

Last time I did a backflip
I landed on a on a smile
But then I broke my ego
So I had to skip a while
To the brand new good time store
That just opened down the way
Where they sell bottled air
And you never have to pay
Well I opened up my good times
And I poured them in my eye
But it made the trees look like
They were exploding into the sky
And the roses smelled like
Hamburgers from 1952
Then my stomach turned to jelly
And my toe nails turned to glue
Well whap a lap a ding dang do
Gonna turn it into a tune
Call it another Tuesday night.
Next thing I know
I started looking for my hat
So I threw it out the window
And it threw itself right back
I asked the rabbit twice
For another cup of tea
The I tripped into the attic
And I heard the caged bird sing
Well have you ever seen a penguin
That just new that he could fly
But he thought it too unsafe
So he decided to drive
But unfortunately Antarctica
Ain't never had no roads
So the penguin pulled right over
And he made himself at home
Well whap a lap a ding dang dun
Think your fingers trust your thumbs?
Give em a hand folks
They're amazed
Well I know that I shouldn't drive
But I really want to go outside
I think things will be all right
I'll be ok.... I'll be okay!!!!!
Now if anything I've said
Has made any sense
You better get your ears checked out
And give your mind a rinse
But give me a call the next time
You ain't got nothin to do
I'll take you to the good times store
And buy a ya a jar or two
Of whatever they sell there
You know you never have to pay
Well we'll walk on down the streets
And have ourselves a day
Well whap a lap a ding dang dong
Now you all have heard my song
Hope you all have a good night
Ya, what a lap a ding dang do
It happened to me, It could happen to you
Hope you all have a good night
Goodnight

Somebody call Ft. Worth
Tell em to, keep on making beer
Then somebody call Ireland
Make sure that the whiskey
Don't turn clear
Cause when all this is over
You know you won't have to look to far
I'll be drinking Pearl and shootin doubles
With anyone that I see at the bar
Then Ben comes in and says
Did you hear, they just opened the pool
So we jump into his Jeep
Acting younger than we are and feelin cool
But its such a nice day, we decide we're going for a drive
Spark a J and put the top down, take a left up here on 35
Then we go down to the river, And we have ourselves our little swim
Let the cold cool water flow over your body
Let if wash away your sins
When all of this is over
It's Beer and Margaritas
It's Amigos and Amigas
Enchiladas and Fajitas
Put in your order
For when all of this is over
When all of this is over
Go and hug my dad and get to say
That I missed you so much,
But you know why I had to stay away
You have that fire fighters cough
And I'm not ready for you to go
Cause I know that you're an old fart
But pop, you're what makes Texas home
When all of this is over
Let's get the band together
Play a bunch of John Prine songs
And let's talk about the weather
Got a song to show ya
When all of this is over
When all of this is over
It's Beer and Margaritas
It's Amigos and Amigas
Enchiladas and Fajitas
Put in your order
For when all of this is over
Put in your order
For when all of this is over

The New Normal

Lost for certain, undue burdens
Things that don't fit in your craw
Seem to liken life to Vicodin
Everybody knows the big show
Won't be going on this year
Stay inside and create boundaries
That will probably last for years
Is it 2x2 or 4x4
An electronic civil war
Will someone tell me what it's for
I thought that we were friends
Now, more than ever
We should decide that it's better
If everyone sticks together
We could be proud
You don't have to be loud
Disinformation and integration
Form the basis of the thesis
Of the antithesis, is what it is
And what it never was
And facts are there are none
And we've only just begun
To notice the light inside the refrigerator
You think is always on
If you hear something, let me know
You've always been my friend
If you need anything call me
I know I'll see you again
Now more than ever
You can put your hands together
For the people that make you think
People ain't that bad
We should get it together
Now more than ever
And an apostrophe couldn't possibly
Punctuate the mystery
Of what it means are things as bad
As they seem, ask me about it
Another time
When we can go out in the night
And not worry about the line
Between here and there
I can't take any more
Now more than ever
We can try and make it better
Than it's ever been before
Or will be again
We should get it together
Now more than ever

Kim Kardashian is President
That's how we ended the Civil War
Elon Musk owns the moon
And he's started painting it blue
But nobody knows what for
Killer hornets are domesticated
And they seem to be frustrated
You know they're buzzin all the time
And they built that giant hive
But nobody knows what for
Everyone owns a Corgi
That's just something we do now
And I really cant explain
How things got to be that way
We just love their furry jowls
I'd buy the vaccine if I could
I hear it's getting pretty good
Supposed to last all year
They have payment plans I hear
But I don't think that I should
I just watch my garden grow
Tell the cops it's medicinal
Spend the rest of my time
Tryin to make homemade wine
But the bathtub is all full
I'm still wearing my blue jeans
Drinkin coffee still makes me mean
And I'm glad to be alive
And I do hope to survive
Quarantine Day One Thousand Ninety Five!!!!!!

Well I started 2020
Thinking I could make some money
Then come out to find
The Economy is tanked
And I just checked with the bank
Turns out I don't have a dime
Wearing a mask everywhere
Nobody's cuttin hair
Standin 6 feet apart in line
Well I cant meet any girls
And Purell owns the world
Just about to loose my mind
Livin in Covid Times
Livin in Covid Times
I don't know if we're through it
But everybody said screw it
Livin in Covid Times
Now it's riots in the streets
People fighting with police
Tear gas in their eyes
The whole world is on fire
And doctors are all liars
Just tryin to survive
Now everybody has deemed
That there ain't no quarantine
Now I'm not just sure why
We did this whole thing
Well it lasted all spring
Guess we just wasted time
Livin in Covid Times
Livin in Covid Times
I don't know if we're through it
But everybody said screw it
Livin in Covid Times
Livin in Covid Times
Livin in Covid Times
I don't know if we're through it
But everybody said screw it
Livin in Covid Times
