lyrics
"Mickey Mouse Teeth"
It was the black out, you see
The night was a stranger to me
Apparently I was at sea, evidently at night
Ebony talking to me, fingering all the white keys
Doing it naturally, everything was alright
I’m gonna get out of this state
I’m gonna hit downtown late
I’m gonna pour wine on my slate
And I’m gonna get right
I’m gonna live elegantly
I’m gonna get down from my tree
I’m gonna take four 4 o'clock tea
And I’m gonna look nice
Remember those old rotten days
Putting that smile on my face
You could just snap like a lace because you used to burn bright
I rattle my Mickey Mouse teeth
My afternoons shake like a leaf
We all know time is the thief because he ain’t got life
I’m gonna keep rolling along, singing my old sailor song
I’m gonna do everything wrong but it’s gonna be right
I’m gonna live elegantly
I’m gonna get down from my tree
I’m gonna take four 4 o'clock tea
I said, I’m gonna take four 4 o'clock tea
And I’m gonna look nice
Na na na na na na
It was the black out, you see
The night was a stranger to me
Apparently I was at sea, evidently at night
Ebony talking to me, fingering all the white keys
Doing it naturally, everything was alright
I’m gonna get out of this state
I’m gonna hit downtown late
I’m gonna pour wine on my slate
And I’m gonna get right
I’m gonna live elegantly
I’m gonna get down from my tree
I’m gonna take four 4 o'clock tea
And I’m gonna look nice
Remember those old rotten days
Putting that smile on my face
You could just snap like a lace because you used to burn bright
I rattle my Mickey Mouse teeth
My afternoons shake like a leaf
We all know time is the thief because he ain’t got life
I’m gonna keep rolling along, singing my old sailor song
I’m gonna do everything wrong but it’s gonna be right
I’m gonna live elegantly
I’m gonna get down from my tree
I’m gonna take four 4 o'clock tea
I said, I’m gonna take four 4 o'clock tea
And I’m gonna look nice
Na na na na na na
