1-2-8 |
They played something |
They made something |
Brand new a baby blue machine |
Brass tacks, duct tape |
For the great escape |
Packed in there like sardines |
Back and forth |
East, south, west, north |
Shred the atlas burn the map |
Often lost and paths criss-crossed |
Wake me up I need a nap |
They did something |
Which meant something |
And that got them some attention |
Eyes wide |
A roller coaster ride |
Great pride in this invention |
I think they’re selling Snake oil |
At the dog and pony show |
In the garden gee |
Would you pardon me And by the way how does it grow |
The explanation’s unexplainable |
Holding onto something |
Once dreamt unattainable |
The course was never charted |
So don’t look into the books |
The secret’s not the recipe |
It’s got to be the cooks |
They made something |
They played something |
Blood, sweat, and elbow grease |
If you can’t stand the heat in the kitchen |
Get out it will increase |
Last train to where? |
Hey get out of here |
Nothing’s measured and nothing’s weighed |
A dash of honesty in the recipe |
That’s the first mistake you’ve made |
1, 2 what’s in the stew |
3, 4 no one’s really sure |
5, 6 what’s in the mix |
7, 8 this stuff tastes |
