Drink! Drink! Drink!  
To eyes that are bright as stars when they’re shining on me!  
Drink! Drink! Drink!  
To lips that are red and sweet as the fruit on the tree!

Lemon tree very pretty  
And the lemon flower is sweet.  
But the fruit of the poor lemon  
Is impossible to eat.

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,  
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine.  
A million tomorrow shall all pass away, 'ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today.

Drunk all the time  
Feeling fine on elderberry wine  
Those were the days  
We’d lay in the haze  
Forget depressive times  
How can I ever get it together  
Without a wife in line  
To pick the crop and get me hot  
On elderberry wine

She’s turnin’ on the heat  
She’s got the magic touch  
She’s turnin’ on the heat  
And it’s a little too much  
She’s turnin’ on the heat  
And it’s a hundred above, yeah!  
Hot girls in love… I’m in love

I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise  
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies  
Singing come sail away, come sail away  
Come sail away with me  
Come sail away, come sail away  
Come sail away with me

Haul the sheet in as we ride on the wind that our  
Forefathers harnessed before us.  
Hear the bells ring as the tide rigging sings.  
It’s a son of a gun of a chorus.

Well, I hits him with everything I had right square between the eyes.  
I says, “I’m gonna gitcha, you son of a bitch ya, for spoutin’ that pack of lies.  
If there’s one thing I can’t abide, it’s an ethnocentric racist;  
Now you take back that thing you said ‘bout Aristitle Onassis.

No, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore,  
We don’t turn the other cheek the way we done before.  
You could hear that honky holler as he hit that hardwood floor  
“Lord, they sho’ ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore!"  
All right!

Slaves - Hebrews born to serve, to the Pharaoh  
Heed - To his every word, live in fear  
Faith - Of the unknown one, the Deliverer  
Wait - Something must be done, four hundred years

So let it be written, so let it be done  
I’m sent here by the Chosen One  
So let it be written, so let it be done  
To kill the firstborn Pharaoh son… I’m creeping death!!!

Now, when I die,  
Now don’t think I’m a nut,  
Don’t want no fancy funeral,  
Just one like ole king Tut. (king Tut)

He coulda won a Grammy, (king Tut)  
Buried in his Jammies, (king Tut)  
Born in Arizona, moved to Babylonia,  
He was born in Arizona, got a condo made of stone-a,  
King Tut!

She can see him on the jetty where they used to go  
She can feel him in the places where the sailors go  
When she’s walking by the river and the railway line  
She can still hear him whisper  
Let’s go down to the waterline

She’s got wonderful eyes, and a risque mouth  
And when I ask her before, she said she’s holding out  
She’s a frozen fire  
She’s my one desire

And I don’t want to hold her down  
Don’t want to break her crown  
When she says: “Let’s go,  
I like the nightlife, baby.”  
She says, “I like the nightlife, baby.”  
She says, “Let’s go!”

She’s so mean but I don’t care  
I love her eyes and her wild, wild hair  
Dance to the beat that we love best  
Heading for the nineties  
Living in the wild, wild west

In dark sorrow  
They gaze down into the darkest heart  
If I leave you  
You say not even you can tear us apart  
Say you’re leaving  
You say you don’t even know how to start  
How to start… how to start…  
Well… believe it then  
And don’t blame it on my soul  
Blame it on my wild heart  
Ooo… on my wild heart… Ooo…

Goodbye, Earl  
Those black-eyed peas?  
They tasted all right to me, Earl  
You’re feeling weak?  
Why don’t you lay down and sleep, Earl  
Ain’t it dark?  
Wrapped up in that tarp, Earl
