When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket´s too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head
My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I´m listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door
I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more
Times were, I´d have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can´t get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door
The jabbering´s hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call
And slip in through my portable door
The unlikely event came upon me I wasn´t prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round the deck And the rest disappeared up the block
So here we are and everything´s changed Faster than ever before You gotta be jokin´, man what are you smoking Blow it out through my portable door
