I was home entertaining some guests
When I fell off the chair and cracked open my head
Bees flew out and they flew up their skirts
And they cracked open the window
And in came the myna birds
I was home entertaining some guests
When I fell off the chair and cracked open my head
Bees flew out and they flew up their skirts
Because they wanted to travel the world
These are the kinds of things we should worry about
These are the kinds of things we should worry about
But I keep it upstairs
I keep it upstairs
I just keep it upstairs
I keep it upstairs
I was out looking in cars
Practicing smiles for the grand finale
I got all day in Cadillac City
I got all day in Cadillac City
I was out walking, looking at posters
Someone famous to kidnap and love
But I keep it upstairs
I keep it upstairs
And I keep it upstairs
I keep it upstairs
I just keep it upstairs
I keep it upstairs
My head is a three-star hotel
Oh no, I might be missing something
My head is a three-star hotel
Oh no, killers are calling on me
My head is a three-star hotel
Oh no, feathers are falling on my feet
My head is a three-star hotel
Oh no, I might be missing something
My head is a three-star hotel
Oh no, feathers are falling on my feet
My head is a three-star hotel
