Lyrics:
They calal me Robert Petry and I live in New Rochelle
With my wife Laura and son Richie but now
My life's a living hell cause
CHORUS
I tripped over the ottoman
One too many times
I tripped over the ottoman
Until I lost my MIIIIIIIIIIND
I was head writer for Alan Brady
Maybe you've seen his show
It's now funny and it makes my ears bleed
This week's guest star isn't Danny Thomas
Our special guest star is Death!
Once I laughed at Buddy's jokes but
Now my life's a living hell, 'cause...
CHORUS
Marey Amsterdam can make a sane man crazy
Morey Amsterdam can make a nice guy kill
Morey Amsterdam can make a sane man crazy
Morey Amsterdam can make a nice guy kill
What did you bring me Daddy?
What did you bring me Daddy?
What did you bring me Daddy?
WELL, I BROUGHT YOU DEATH!
Take it, boys.
Yeah, my sister's really movin' up in the world.
She dates a full-blown professor! Goes by the name
of Professor Griff. He's a great guy; he's a good
ol' boy, that wild ol' Professor Griff. I think
that he's a history professor. The other day, he
told me the wildest story about the history of
jewelry.
Anyway, come nightfall, we all love to sit on the
porch, an' Sis plays the banjo, I play the jug, an'
Professor Griff breaks out his Jew's harp and just
flails away. God, I love that guy!
