Now believe me when I tell you that my song is really true
I want everyone to listen and believe
It's about some little people from a long time ago
And all the things the neighbors didn't know
Early in the morning Daddy Dinky went to work
Selling lamps and chairs to San Ber'dino Squares
And I still remember mama with her apron and her pad
Feeding all the boys in Ed's Cafe
CHORUS:
Whizzing and pasting and pooting through the day
Ronnie helping Kenny helping burn his poots away
And all the while on a shelf in a shed
Kenny's little creature's on display
VERSE 2:
Ronnie saves his numies on a window in his room
A marvel to be seen; dysentery green
While Kenny and his buddies had a game out in the back
LET'S MAKE THE WATER TURN BLACK!
BRIDGE:
We see them after school in a world of their own
To some it might seem creepy what they do...
The neighbors on the right sat and watched them every night
I bet you'd do the same if they was you
(CHORUS)
VERSE 3:
Ronnie's in the Army now and Kenny's taking pills
Oh! How they yearn to see a bomber burn!
Color flashing, thunder crashing, dynamite machine!
Wait till the fire turns green...
Wait till the fire turns green...
F G A(major)
WAIT TILL THE FIRE TURNS GREEN!
