The Grass Is Greener (pop's Drunken Confession)

Hey-ho, Daddy's home!

Heeeerrrreeee's Johnny!!!

Where did everybody go??!!

Goodbye Chicago,

goodbye Miami skies,

"ground control to Major Tom,

my soul been psychodelisized..."

They say the grass is greener

on the other side of the fence

and the meat is sweeter,

it takes two to do the dance.

Man, the girl is a dream!

I ain't seen one like that since...

They say the grass is greener

on the other side of the fence.

Well, the girl from New York

digs Peter Tork and the girls

from Milwaukee do the Walkie-Talkie.

Cheerleaders in Atlanta do the

boom-shagga-lagga, shouting

"V-I-C-T-O-R-Y!!!"

They walk and they walk and

they talk and they talk and

theywalkandtheywalkandthey

talkandtheytalkandtheywalkand

theywalkandtheytalkandtheytalk

all night to get it right, but inside

They say the grass is greener

on the other side of the fence

and the meat is sweeter,

it takes two to do the dance.

Man, the girl is a dream!

I ain't seen one like that since...

They say the grass is greener

on the other side of the fence

on the other side of the fence

on the other side of the fence

Jimmy's dad says

"son, there's a small hotel,

two high on Ten High

and Chantilly. Man! I love the

smell of another man's life.

I love the smell of another man's wife.

Strike while the iron's hot.

I know it's wrong, but I can't stop.

I love your mom, but I'm a bum and

hey, c'mon..."

They say the grass is greener

on the other side of the fence

and the meat is sweeter,

it takes two to do the dance.

Man, the girl is a dream!

I ain't seen one like that since...
