Commandate

I'm gonna drink more whiskey than brendan behan.
And i'm gonna send my belongings all to tripoli.
And i'm gonna ride home to california
With a banjo on my knee.

I'm never gonna turn off the television.
I'm just gonna let it run all night.
I'm gonna plant root vegetables out in the backyard
And come summer i am going to treat you right.

So put on your chairman mao coat
And let me clear my throat.
Let's turn this whole town upside-down
And shake it 'til the coins come falling out of its pockets,
Yeah put on your che guevara pin
Call the troops on in
We're gonna sail through the night sky like a pair of bottle rockets.

I got a great big secret written down somewhere.
I got a rosary to protect us both from harm.
I got a storage locker full of cow figurines
And a laundry list of grievances longer than my arm.
And i am never going back to cincinatti.
All those bridges have burned down to the ground.
I got the jet pack strapped to my back
And i am waiting for you to come around.

Yeah, put on your chairman mao coat
And let me clear my throat.
Let's turn this whole place upside-down
And shake it 'til the coins come dropping out of its pockets.
Yeah put on your che guevara pin
Call the troops on in.
We're gonna sink through the night sky like a pair of bottle rockets.
