Lyrics

Weird goings-on at the county jail Prisoners reading the sheriff's mail He's strapped down to a swivel chair Trying to swivel right out of there Pin-striped sweets in cell 15 Convinced his self it's all a dream He's got a pet black tabby cat Carries a gun and wears a Stetson hat The door flies open, in strides geek Looking like the front page of Newsweek He says to Lou in a voice of glee "What's the matter, ain't you glad to see me?" Lou's on the floor 'cause he can't stand up As green as a leaf in a tea-cup When on to geeks back jumps a Stetson-hatted cat Which breaks geeks neck like he was a rat? Eh, oh, my son Going on at the county jail Prisoners reading the sheriff's mail He's strapped down to a swivel chair Trying to swivel right out of there Pin-striped sweets in cell 15 Convinced his self it's all a dream He's got a pet black tabby cat Carries a gun and wears a Stetson hat Long gone geek Long gone geek Long gone geek Long gone geek Long gone geek Long gone geek Long gone geek Long gone geek Jesus! In this little room here, you've no idea It's boiling, absoluteley boiling Your Majesty, we've to slow down otherwise we will get some strugglles—
