lyrics

I'm walking down the yellow dashed line looking for bugs that have been hit by cars, and I'm thinking to myself why am I looking for bugs? What would I do with the bugs when I found them? Maybe I should find a hobby or something I could collect spaghetti noodles and keep them on velvet and satin pillows. I could build a shrine out of macaronni and leave offerings of parmasean and lettuce.
parmasean and lettuce
I could pray to the pasta gods, and sacrifice small children and bowling balls. I could do all of this, but right now I'm looking for dead bugs on the road. Usually they stick to the windshield or sometimes the grill where they look like some kind of gruesome garden of sin. Bits of black and green and other insect colors.
black and green
I'd probably just eat the noodles though, then where would I be? I'd be walking down the middle of the road looking for dead bugs that have been hit by cars. I'd have no hobbies and I'd be wondering, Who shot Elvis? Its been years yet nobody has found his killer he could be roaming free. He could be walking down the middle of the street looking for dead bugs. His killer could be me
I shot Elvis it was me
Oh wait, Elvis wasn't shot...I'm sorry I was wrong.
If I was wrong about Elvis perhaps I'm wrong about what I'm doing now. Maybe I'm an astronaut, or maybe...maybe I am a plumber. Imagine if I was a plumber, I wouldn't be walking down the middle of the street, no way! Thats not what a plumber does
not what a plumber does
Plumbers lead much more interesting lives than that.
I'd be on a wonderful adventure looting and pillaging with all the other plumbers on the high seas. We'd fly the jolly roger...and use plungers for peg legs because I'd be the best plumber that any scurvy dog had ever met.
scurvy dog.
