Break in the schedule

Sufficient coolant leak

We thought we were doing the right thing

You cannot be too picky in Cheyenne on a Sunday

And (G5)up walked the (C5)mechanic

With the (D5)perpendicular teeth

Perpendicular teeth (x4)

Oh yeah

Perpendicular teeth (x4)

Oh yeah

'Bout 17th hour they pulled us up into bay

And funky tooth started digging

down under the hood

After clearing a path to the water pump

And taking a four hour break

By (G5)hour twenty-(C5)seven

We were all (D5)good and

We sailed from little America (4x)

Oh yeah

We sailed from little America (4x)

Oh yeah

Only two days later

On the way down to Deep Elem

We broke down in Oklahoma

Where the wind come behind the (e5)rain

We got towed to a town called Perry

Where a woman's care took priority

She had a (A5)kidney in a (D5)cooler

So two (e5)nights we had to stay so she could

Deliver the kidney (4x)

Oh yeah

Deliver the kidney (4x)

Oh yeah

If you go down to Deep Elem

Down to the Gypsy Tea Room

Tell 'em I'm broke down in Perry

And I'll try to make it back soon

(play Fill 4 once)

Now I know I'll be paying

On the Conquest after she's through

Unrealistic maybe

But it's something I got to (e5)do

I need a big-ass bus with a satellite dish

A double-decker doublewide, what I wish

I (A5)dream open-eyed(D5) that this be (e5)true

My double-decker doublewide (4x)

Oh yeah

My double-decker doublewide (4x)

Oh yeah

(rapped; percussive guitar)

It's gonna have (A5)two icemakers

In both refrigerators

A silent but violent generator

To run the sub-woofer and disco ball

And the escalator up in the dance hall

On the second floor with a giant skylight

A driving range and jacuzzi just right

For skinny dipping right after the show

(e5)At 80 miles and hour it's worth all the dough

And 'til then I'll stand on the corner with a sign

Says will work for my double-decker doublewide

'Til then I will stand on the corner with a sign

Says will work for my double-decker doublewide

Perpendicular teeth

In little America

Deliver the kidney

In my double-decker doublewide

(repeat ad nauseum)
