Cross Country Lyrics by Steven Wright

I Have a Pony

0

The Stones. I love the Stones. I can't believe they're still doing it after all these years. I watch 'em whenever I can. Fred and Barney.
Last summer, I drove cross-country with a friend of mine. We split the driving. We switched every half-mile.
The whole way across, we only had one cassette tape to listen to... but I can't remember what it was.
We were in Salina, Utah when we were arrested for not going through a green light. We pleaded maybe.
And for absolutely no reason, we went to Canada. I was feeling good. I had just received my degree in calcium anthropology - the study of milkmen.
When we were driving over the border back into the United States, they asked me if I had any firearms. I said, "What do you need?"
I was traveling with my friend George. Some people think George is weird 'cause he has sideburns behind his ears.
I think he's weird 'cause he has false teeth but he has braces on them.
George is a radio announcer and when he walks under a bridge, you can't hear him talk.
When I first moved into my house, there was a switch on the wall that didn't control any lights or anything. I'd just flick it up and down every once in a while. Then, about a month later, I got a letter from a woman in Germany saying, "Cut it out."
