I'm relaxing myself out by the pool....thinking life has been so kind....
Anticipating all the hard times are over...lots of pleasant thoughts on my mind....
Then someone sat down on my door bell....I jumped for my robe in surprise....
Standing there was my oversize cousin...crazy Clyde and his bride....
Verse Two:
There they stood...so glad I could see 'em....with luggage for a family of ten....
Clyde...give him a hand with our bags...invite yourself on in....
Why don't you show me the bedroom...been on the road and we're tired....
Clyde's my devoted and my name is Hopeful...gonna rest here easy a'while....
The Chorus:
YOU JUST DON'T WANT SOME PEOPLE...
SLEEPING IN YOUR WATERBED....
IF YOU CHERISH & LOVE THE PLACE....
YOU REST YOUR BONES & PUT YOUR HEAD...
WHEN THEY START...SPLASHING AND THRASHING AND BOUNCING AROUND....
SLOSHING WATER...ALL OVER TOWN....
YOU JUST DON'T WANT SOME PEOPLE...
SLEEPING IN YOUR WATERBED....
Verse Three:
I patched up the roof...painted the ceiling...got rid of my waterbed...
Got a statue of Jesus...a bunch of candles...no pillows for their head....
Put a little mat in the middle of the floor...meditating how to get rid of some more..
Just in case old crazy Clyde and Hopeful come back to my door....
Repeat The Chorus
YOU JUST DON'T WANT SOME PEOPLE...
SLEEPING IN YOUR WATERBED....
IF YOU CHERISH & LOVE THE PLACE....
YOU REST YOUR BONES & PUT YOUR HEAD...
WHEN THEY START...SPLASHING AND THRASHING AND BOUNCING AROUND....
SLOSHING WATER...ALL OVER TOWN....
YOU JUST DON'T WANT SOME PEOPLE...
SLEEPING IN YOUR WATERBED....
The Fade Out
Next year...I'm gonna buy a condo in the tropics....
I'm taking myself a really long vacation...maybe I'll even change my name...
Just about lost my mind over that waterbed deal...
Clyde sleeping in my bed...taking all the food out of the refrigerator...
Eating cookies in my bed...ate up all my ice cubes....
And drank up all my drinks and now I've got nothing in there...
Thought the neighbors were gonna sue me...
Didn't think I was ever gonna get em out of my waterbed....
Tag
You just don't want some people...sleeping in your waterbed....
