george washingtub james and the giant peach şarkı sözleri
James was eating a giant peach
While Gilbert sipped on a purple drink
When James decided he wanted to go to town
So James took his giant peach
And he put it on a giant leash
And he said now hey Gilbert I'm going to giant town
He wanted to fight giants there
With his giant peach on a giant leash
But there were too many giants to fight alone
But James was really still in his shed
This was all imagined in his head
For James was doing acid again
When in through the door walked Mary
Released from jail early unexpectedly
Come to seek some vengeance on James
You see James had tipped off the authorities
About the dead body in his alley
Forgetting that it was him and Mary who put it there
But Mary claimed she never killed nobody
It was just a john who allegedly O.D.'d
After a night of doing drugs and amorosity
Oh Mary had a little lamb
She slit his throat filleted it and fried it in a pan
And that's what she's come to do to you now James too
But James reacted quickly and ran out the back door
Which was really just a hole in the shed wall
And he hopped a train for Albuquerque
And it was while crossing the great prairie
The acid started to wear off and James had an epiphany
He thought maybe it's time to clean my life up
I'm gonna get off of drugs and go back to school
Get a good job and meet a nice girl
Maybe I'll even marry a librarian
I'll work for the electric utility
We'll buy a ranch house and raise a family
We'll have two kids who play in the Little League
I'll drive a Chevrolet pick-up truck and eat apple pie
Grill hot dogs on the grill and we'll go bowling on Wednesday night
We will be living the American dream
Well it was at that moment James slipped and fell off the train
Cracked his head open and died in a ravine
Oh well, and so it goes
