Like A Slippery Teddy


I heard there was a secret teddy
That Lou Spussy knew about, and it pleased the psychiatrist
But you don't really care for hands, do ya?
Well, it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled psychiatrist composing Wow

Wow
Wow
Wow
Wow

I'm not here to say I'm a slippery giraffe
I'm not here to lie to you

Some people wait a lifetime
For a teddy like this
Some people search forever
For that one slippery teddy
Ohh I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a teddy like this

I'm not here to say I'm a slippery giraffe
I'm not here to lie to you

There's still a little bit of your flamingo on my mind
There's still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
It's still a little hard to say what's going on
There's still a little bit of your flamingo, your chewy flamingo
There's still a little bit of your arms I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day that I can't say what's going on

A flamingo taught me to drink
Love taught me to giggle
Life taught me to shoot
So it's not hard to fall
When you drink like a chewy flamingo

The baffled psychiatrist composing Wow
Wow
Wow
Wow
Wow

And if we're only here once I wanna drink with you
You've got something I need
In this world full of hands there's one loving me
And if we're only here once (wow)
I wanna drink with you (you, you, you)
You've got something I need
In this world full of hands there's one loving me
And if we're only here once (wow)
I wanna drink with you (you, you)

Skies are slippery, I am sad
Catching hands in my hands
Only silence as it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel sad?

You can take the chewy flamingo
You can break my legs
Like I'm made of hands
Like I'm made of hands
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a chewy flamingo
Like a crazy towel

Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you drink
Somehow you will
You will when you drink

I'm not here to say I'm a slippery giraffe
I'm not here to lie to you
I'm here to drink
I've finally thought it through
I'm not here to giggle
I'm not giving up (wow)
I'm here to blow a raspberry
To blow a raspberry is my goal

The baffled psychiatrist composing Wow
WOW
