Smash Mouth Lyrics
Words in Bold are what Greg Sings.
FLO
Your friends keep telling me
I bear a striking resemblance to
Someone you used to know
But baby it’s me
So why the hell do you keep calling me “Flo”
And I would hope
That you would have the decency to
Let me go
In case of an emergency
But you keep reassuring me
Telling me to just quit tripping on it
And maybe it’s me
I guess that I should probably get a grip on it
“But” it’s hard to do
Every time I see that tattoo
Over your heart
It ain’t right I can’t even look at you
Why you doing what you’re doing
You should be doing what you want
Who the fuck you think you’re fooling
She’s the one the one you want
Florence if you hear this won’t you
Come and take your girlfriend back
She’s been calling out your name
Every time we’re in the sack
She’s been a mess since you’ve been apart
So Flo if you had half the heart
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
We’ve been going for awhile
But lately she’s been somewhere else
She don’t even smile
And I think it’s a cry for “Help”
And I would pray
That you would have the common courtesy
To take her away
It ain’t right she don’t belong to me
Why you doing what you’re doing
You should be doing what you want
You’re the only one you’re fooling
She’s the one the one you want
Florence if you hear this won’t you
Come and pick your girlfriend back
She’s been talking in her sleep
And I think that I’ve had enough
She’s been a wreck since you’ve been away
So Flo if you have something to say
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me
BEER GOGGLES
I don’t love you but I want to
Just give me something I can hold on to
Come on baby and speed your lust to me
Here’s my number on a cocktail napkin
Think about it like a loaded weapon
Cock the hammer and point that thing at me
Why don’t you call
Why don’t you call
Why don’t you call
Kill me for the thrill of it all
I want someone anyone
Tall ones short ones skinny ones
I want someone anyone
You spend your nights at home crying
I spend mine death defying
I call it testing morality
So pull the goggles down over your eyes
And say good night to the rest of the barflies
I’m forever yours temporarily
Why don’t you call
Why don’t you call
Why don’t you call
Kill me for the thrill of it all
I want someone anyone
Drunk ones spun ones anyone
I want someone anyone
Fat ones whacked ones give me some
I want someone anyone
Spend some rent one lend me one
Fun ones dumb ones gypsy chicks on rocks
Done ones even chicks with chicken pox
I want someone anyone
I want someone anyone
I want someone anyone
I want someone anyone
Drunk ones spun ones give me some
I want someone anyone
Fat ones whacked ones anyone
I want someone anyone
WALKIN ON THE SUN
It ain't no joke I'd like to buy the world a toke
And teach the world to sing in perfect harmony
And teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars
Hey I know it's just a song but it's spice for the recipe
This is a love attack I know it went out but it's back.
It's just like any fad it retracts before impact
And just like fashion it's a passion for the with it and hip
If you got the goods they'll come and buy it just to stay in the clique
CHORUS:
So don't delay act now supplies are running out
Allow if you're still alive six to eight years to arrive
And if you follow there may be a tomorrow
But if the offer's shun you might as well be walkin' on the sun
Twenty-five years ago they spoke out and they broke out
Of recession and oppression and together they toked
And they folked out with guitars around a bonfire
Just singin' and clappin' man what the hell happened
Then some were spellbound some were hellbound
Some they fell down and some got back up and
Fought back 'gainst the melt down
And their kids were hippie chicks all hypocrites
Because fashion is smashin' the true meaning of it
(Chorus)
It ain't no joke when a mama's handkerchief is soaked
With her tears because her baby's life has been revoked
The bond is broke up so choke up and focus on the close up
Mr. Wizard can't perform no godlike hocus-pocus
So don't sit back kick back and watch the world get bushwhacked
News at 10:00 your neighborhood is under attack
Put away the crack before the crack puts you away
You need to be there when your baby’s old enough to relate
(Chorus)
LETS ROCK
Lately I’ve been thinking about the past
About the good times
And have they all come and gone
And are there more years behind than ahead
Then I say to myself
Fuck it let's rock
Let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
Lately I’ve been thinkin’ who’s in charge
About who they are
And are they looking down and laughing hard
And are they aliens or robots or humanoids or gods
I think I’m just paranoid
Fuck it let's rock
Let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
What if someone takes my cat what if she runs away
What if she gets hit
What if someone takes my chick what if she runs away
I won’t be blue
Cuz I know what to do
(Gregs Awesome guitar solo)
Lately I’ve been thinking about my vices
And about the prices
That I’ll later have to pay
I’ve been thinking about myself
And about my health
Then I’ll say what the hell
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
HEAVE-HO
Neighbor called my landlord
She said that she was pissed
Up all night making noise
And she can't get no rest
She said we was running a flop house
Full of thieves and thugs
Musicians and hooligans and we were all on drugs
So she got bent and raised the rent
Said it would only take one more
Phone call from my whiny neighbor
What's up with my neighbor
What's it gonna take to get a break
She's got us tiptoeing around in fear
Church mice at St. Leo's down my street
Have moved so far away
She has sent them packing and running scared
How much more does she think we will take
Maybe someday when I'm old and fat and bored
I'll understand why my neighbor makes me feel like hell
I can't even watch TV or sneeze or fart can't even breathe
For fear my landlord will come and ring my bell
How much more does she think we will pay
No more flop house no more fun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
Shooting cans with BB guns
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
She says these punks have to go
I think we're gonna get the old heave ho
Neighbor called my landlord
It was a Sunday afternoon
She couldn't hear the TV set
We were having a barbecue
We were listening to Louis Prima
And drinking Meisterbrau
If she would have come to talk it over
And wasn't a lazy cow
So she got bent she raised the rent
Said it would only take one more
Phone call from my whiny neighbor
Maybe someday when I'm jaded
9 to 5 at a job I hate
I'll come home and razz my neighbors too
But I'd have a strategy
And catch them when the rent is late
And all the other bills are overdue
After all this is the neighborly way
No more music no more fun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
Barbecues in the sun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
She says that these punks must go
I think we're gonna get the old heave ho
Don't even hide the dog
Or put the bong away
We don't want to live here anyway
Neighbor called my landlord
She said we didn't care
The lawn is dead
Dogs and cats are stinking everywhere
She said that we had crazy parties every night
The yard is littered with bottles and cans
Skateboards and bikes
She didn't get bent
Didn't raise the rent
We only got a note
In 30 days we'll get the old heave ho
WAAAAAOO WAAAAAAAOO
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
Barbecues in the sun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
She says that these punks must go
I think we're gonna get the old heave ho
THE FONZ
I wanna try your shoes on
And wear them for a day
Learn to walk like you do
And say what I see
I'd talk like I know something
That everyone wanted to hear
But you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
But you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
The definition of icy
The measure of what's up
You could play the tuba
And everyone would clap
Well I can play the tuba
And they all just shake their heads
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
I know it's over for me
I know it's over for me
I know it's over for me
I know it's over
I drove my car to the top floor
And stood at the edge
When I woke up in heaven
Looked down and no one cared
But when you pulled your own trigger
They all gathered around to watch
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the
