Testi

When I was a baby I kept a diary
Recently I was re-reading and it said "
Day one: Still tired from the move
Day two: Everybody talks to me like I'm an idiot"
I remember turning from one years old to two years old I
Was real upset 'cause I figured in one year my age doubled
If this keeps up by the time I'm six I'll be ninety
It was my birthday recently
For my birthday I got a humidifier and a dehumidifier
Put 'em in the same room and let 'em fight it out
Then I filled my humidifier with wax
Now my room's all shiny
Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time
A friend of mine named Dennis' parents are midgets
But he's not a midget, he's a midget dwarf
He's this big
He's the guy who poses for trophies
I used to work for the factory where they make
Hydrants but you couldn't park anywhere near the place
I used to be a proofreader for a skywriting company
I'm entering the stranger sweepstakes
It's a contest
You pay fifty cents and you get a little card that has a number on it
Then you go up to any stranger and you scratch a penny on his head
If the number under there matches the number you have
You win one hundred dollars
I won twice
I was beat up eleven times
I'm saving the money though 'cause I'm planning a trip to Spain
So I bought an album that teaches you the language
You put the album on, you put headphones on
You learn the language while you're sleeping
During the night the record skipped
I got up the next day I could only stutter in Spanish
When I go I'm flying, I'm flying Air Bazaar
It's a good airline
You buy a combination one-way round trip ticket
You leave any Monday, they bring you back the previous Friday
That way you still have the weekend
I went to court for a parking ticket, I pleaded insanity
I said "Your honor, why would anyone in
Their right mind park in the passing lane?"
Then I asked him if he knew what time it is and
He told me and I said "No further questions"
I'm going to court next week, I've been selected for jury duty
It's kind of an insane case
Six thousand ants dressed up as rice and robbed a Chinese restaurant
I don't think they did it
I know a few of 'em and they wouldn't do anything like that
