Tropical Nightmare
The other night I fell asleep, the way I always do I usually dream of palm trees and beaches, and bikinis too
But this one was different, right away I could see When this man walked up and said, son you now work for me
It was a tropical nightmare, there was ice and snow everywhere
I was even wearing underwear, talk about a real big scare
Driving a big Cadillac, tailored suit was on my back Somebody wake me get me out of here, I'm in a tropical nightmare
He said we've taken away your band, and we've done away with all your fans
You're gonna sell widgets door to door, just like you used to do before
I was thinkin' bout my tiki bar when he said "man, you no longer can play your guitar"
If you don't believe it's true, here's one let's see what you can do
Solo
Well I tell ya, I don't know about that, I think that's one of the best performances I've ever had, you didn't take that away from me, now.
He said we've replaced you with an accordion, You're gonna be the Mile Marker 24 youpers.
Ya hay dare, Crimany Pete
It was a tropical nightmare, there was ice and snow everywhere
I was even wearing underwear, talk about a real big scare
Driving a big Cadillac, tailored suit was on my back Somebody wake me get me out of here, I'm in a tropical nightmare
Wait.
Is that Frankenstin over there?
wait he's wearin' my hat, my flip-flops and Cynderella's holding his hand.
And that's Darth Vader driving my boat.
I tell ya before I go to bed I gotta stop drinking Glen's painkillers and margaritas, and coconut rum and Tennessee moonshine, and Pinot Noir wine, and I say I'm kind of a red wine person, I will drink white wine occasionally, I like the taste of both., what am I talking about?
Wake up, wake up, Wait, hear steel drums Dave, bring me back buddy.
Come on Wake up Wake up Wake up Wake up Wake up Wake up, Howie.
wake up ...
Man, I'm glad that's over...
Good morning...
Huh?
Oh no.
