Lyrics

Now believe me when I tell you that my story's really true I want everyone to listen and believe It's about some little people from a long time ago And all the things the neighbors didn't know Early in the morning Daddy Dinky goes to work Selling lamps & chairs to San Ber'dino squares And I still remember Mama with her apron & her [...] Feeding all the boys at Ed's Cafe! Whizzing and pasting and pooting through the day . . (Ronnie helping Kenny helping burn his poots away!) And all the while on a shelf in the shed: KENNY'S LITTLE CREATURES ON DISPLAY! Kenny saves his numie on a window in his room (A marvel to be seen: dysentery green) While [...] have a game out in the back: LET'S MAKE THE WATER TURN BLACK We see them after school in a world of their own (To some it might seem creepy what they do . . . ) The neighbors on the right sat & watched them every night (I'll bet you'd do the same if they were you) Whizzing and pasting and pooting through the day . . (Ronnie helping Kenny helping burn his poots away!) And all the while on a shelf in the shed: KENNY'S LITTLE CREATURES ON DISPLAY! Ronnie's in the Army now & Kenny's taking pills Oh! How they yearn to see a bomber burn! Colors flashing, thunder crashing, dynamite machine! (Wait till the fire turns green . . . wait till the fire turns green) WAIT TILL THE FIRE TURNS .
