Lyrics

I met this girl last night with a peculiar cackle
I laid the bait and then she took the tackle
Had too much to drink at the Red Lobster
Now the room is spinning around like the blades of a helicopter
I never met a girl that was too finicky
If the press has their way then they’re going to finish me
You might know this but you’ve never been this see
If I ate spinach then I’d be called Spinach D
I shed light like cats shed fur
Ride around town like Raymond Burr
I’m so high that they call me Your Highness
If you don’t know me then pardon my shyness
I live in the Village wherever I go I walk to
Keepin’ my friends around so I have someone to talk to
I play my music loud because you know it’s got clout to it
It’s a trip it’s got a funky beat and I can bug out to it
