Little Dennis Wilson

She raises her hand
And counts in the band
Then beats the floor tom numb
Doing wipe out on the drums
Only five foot two
But you know she has you
When she plays her white pearl slings
better than you do
I used to write songs about
ex-girlfriend woes
but that's all behind me now
because I know
She's my little Dennis Wilson
Wakes up at seven
Drives to the ocean
And her car has got cassette tapes
of Misfits and Beach Boys
She takes her twin fin
And duck dives her way in
While the surfers hesitate
she catches the next wave
I try to keep up
But I'm a kook for sure
Laying on my foam board and
Waiting on shore
For my little Dennis Wilson

Baby Mushroom Cloud

Sometimes I feel
I have the sex appeal
Of Groucho Marx
Though I might look strange
Love burns like a range
In my heart
Under her spell
A Hollywood bombshell
Like Marilyn
And I walk over coals
And sell my soul
Til I was a skeleton
She drink her roommates Tanqueray
And pours water back in its place
She gets high on the holidays
Oh now I know
She's my baby mushroom cloud
Knocking all the walls down
She's my baby mushroom cloud
And what's the use of regular guys
Living out their regular lives
Let's hold a stick of dynamite
And watch the fuse go real slow
She's my baby mushroom cloud
Knocking all the walls down
She's my baby mushroom cloud

Cherry Coke

At work I'm an everything guy
Don't know what I do half the time
At night I need to unwind
So glad that I've got you
When I'm alone with you
Cherry Coke - Cherry Coke
When I'm alone with you
Mountain Dew - Mountain Dew
My heart is filled with newspaper
My blood is high fructose goo
My bones are breaking like Legos
Wherever I go
I'm sad without you
When I'm alone with you
Cherry Coke - Cherry Coke
When I'm alone with you
Mountain Dew - Mountain Dew
I can shake you up like a soda can
I can ball you into a fist
I make you take off your wedding ring
And feel like you don't exist
When I'm alone with you
Sugar free - Pepsi blue
When I'm alone with you
Code Red - Mountain Dew
