Flaming Lips - Guy Who Got A Headache & Accidentally Saves The Wo lyrics

Every time my ship comes in

A hurricane blows it out again

Stormy weather seems to hang around my door

My sweet bird of paradise

Flew the coop on me last night

Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

I got a letter from the I.R.S

They said, son, you're in a hell of a mess

Our computer shows you owe ten-thousand more

That machine's made a bad mistake

'Cause that's more than this poor boy makes

Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

Every time it rains I just wash my car

The whole neighbourhood goes

Swimmin' in my front yard

Well, my mother-in-law says she's

Stayin' three weeks more

Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

Just got my car out of the shop

Two blocks down the street it stopped

I went to use the telephone at the grocery store

I walked back to my Chevrolet

But they towed that sucker away

Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour

Every time it rains I just wash my car

The whole neighbourhood goes

Swimmin' in my front yard

Well, my mother-in-law says she's

Stayin' three weeks more

Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don't it pour
