Making Flippy Floppy Lyrics

Nothing can come between us

Nothin gets you down

Nothing strikes your fancy

Nothing turns you on

 Somebody is waiting in the hallway

 Somebody is falling down the stairs

 Set someone free, break someone's heart

 Stand up help us out

Ev'rything is divided

Nothing is complete

Ev'rything looks impressive

Do not be deceived

 You don't have to wait for more instructions

 No one makes a monkey out of me

 We lie on our backs, feet in the air

 Rest and relaxation, rocket to my brain

Snap into position

 Bounce till you ache

Step out of line

 And you end up in jail

Bring me a doctor

 I have a hole in my head

But they are just people

 And I'm not afraid

Doctor Doctor

We have nothing in our pockets

We continue

But we have nothing left to offer

 Faces pressed against the window

 Hey! they are just my friends

 Check this out don't be slick

 Break our backs it goes like this . . .

We are born without eyesight

 We are born without sin

And our mama protects us

 From the cold and the rain

We're in no hurry

 sugar and spice

We sing in the darkness

 We poen our eyes (open up)

I can't believe it

 And people are strange

Our president's crazy

 Did you hear what he said

Business and pleasure

 Lie right to your face

Divide it in sections

 And then give it away

There are no big secrets

 Don't believe what you read

We have great big bodies

 We got great big heads

Run-a-run-a-run it all together

Check it out - still don't make no sense

Makin' flippy floppy

 Tryin to do my best

Lock the door

 We kill the beast

 Kill it!
