lyrics
I got a friend in Fremont,
He sells used cars, ya know.
Well, he calls me up twice a year
Just ask me how'd it go.
Pretty good, not bad, I can't complain
'Cause actually everything is just about the same.
--
I met a girl from Venus,
Her insides were lined in gold.
Well, she did what she did said "How was it, kid?"
She was politely told.
Pretty good, not bad, I can't complain
Cause actually everything is just about the same.
--
Moonlight makes me dizzy,
Sunlight makes me clean.
Your light is the sweetest thing,
That this boy has ever seen.
--
Molly went to Arkansas,
She got raped by Dobbin's dog.
She was doing good till she went in the woods,
And got pinned up against a log.
Pretty good, not bad, she can't complain,
'Cause actually all them dogs is just about the same
--
Moonlight makes me dizzy,
Sunlight makes me clean.
Your light is the sweetest thing,
That this boy has ever seen.
--
I heard Allah and Buddha,
Were sitting at the Savior's feast.
And up the sky and Arabian rabbi,
Fed Quaker oats to a priest.
Pretty good, not bad, they can't complain.
'Cause actually all them gods is just about the same.
--
Pretty good, not bad, I can't complain,
'Cause actually everything is just about the same.
