She¹s got time for the dog and none for her man

And I¹m no dope, but I can¹t cope so hit the fuckin road and piss up a
rope

A - you can --- piss.... up a rope
C
And you can put on your shoes hit the road get truckin¹
G
Pack your bag I don¹t need the ag
D
On your knees you big booty bitch start suckin¹
G
You ride my ass like a horse in a saddle
C
Now you¹re up shit¹s creek with a turd for a paddle
G D G
And I can¹t cope, a- piss up a rope
A you can piss up a rope and feel the pissy dribble
You can piss up a rope and watch me giggle
For the last six months I been packin¹ your bag
You can wash my balls with a warm wet rag
Till my balls feel smooth and soft like silk
I¹m sick of your mouth and your two percent milk
And I can¹t cope, a - piss up a rope

You Were the Fool
E
Bless the father bless the sun, cross your heart cause you're the on
Asus4 E
Collecting moonbeams in the morning
E
Curvy sticks and wooden poles assisting you in plugging holes
Asus4 E
Plug them holes until you see straight through to the minds eye
D A
Think about it turn around and go back to the quiet sound
Am7 A6/7sus4
Of Jim and Dan prancing around the pool
E A E
You were the fool, and I feel sorry for you, you were the fool
D A E
But there's something you can do
You can wash your arm in a pool of mud, you can chop a tree to prevent
a flood
You can speak with a turtle just by flipping him around
You can build a boat and sail the sea, you can buy a moat and forge a
key
Initiate the sequence, create catastrophe
CHORUS
REPEAT 1st VERSE
D A
Think about it turn around and go back to the quiet sound
Am7 A6/7sus4
Of Jim and Dan prancing around the pool
E A E
You were the fool, and I feel sorry for you, you were the fool
D C
E
But there's something you can do you were the fool

The pig says to Penny ³get Fluffy back on the porch²

So me and Fluffy and Penny are on the Porch
D Em D Em D F/D G REPEAT
