Let's make the water turn black

Now believe me when I tell you that my song is 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 went to work 

Selling lamps & chairs to San Ber'dino squares 

And I still remember Mama with her apron & her pad 

Feeding all the boys at Ed's Cafe! 



Whizzing & pasting & 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 saves his numies on a window in his room 

(A marvel to be seen: dysentery green) 

While Kenny & his buddies had 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 bet you'd do the same if they was you) 



Whizzing & pasting & 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! 

Color flashing, thunder crashing, dynamite machine! 

(Wait till the fire turns green . . . wait till the fire turns green) 

WAIT TILL THE FIRE TURNS GREEN! 



This would be a little bit of vocal teen-age heaven, right here on Earth!
