Mostly Harmless Lyrics by By Surprise

Mountain Smashers (Deluxe)

2011

[Verse 1]
Head, ears, hips, and heart
Patron saints of dirty bars
I'll never be, I'll never be, I'll never be
Like the people who inspire me

[Verse 2]
I want to live on an island
I want to live a simple life
For the simple island people
I'll make them sandwiches

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus]
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses

[Chorus]
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
Artichokes with lettuce
Corn on the cob with roses
(Eh?)
