Lyrics
Clearinghouse for Misfits
Verse: Angeline runs a Clearinghouse for Misfits
She always got a pot a stew boiling away
And every loony-toon and crackpot in the valley
Shows up at Angeline?s for the holidays.
Verse: She always got a hot cup of coffee
For every hard luck case that fall off the highway
And I know I?m just another bowl in her soup line
But I?ll love Angeline to my dyin? day.
Verse: Over in the corner
That?s my best friend Paranoid Pete
He keeps his back against the wall
And a pair of fresh sneakers on his feet
Verse: And Ichobod loves his briefcase
It was a gift from IBM
He could manage five-hundred yuppies
But he couldn?t manage him.
Chorus: Designated angel watch over me tonight
There?s a bad moon bearin? down on me
Designated angel watch over me tonight
Oh Angeline, you?re my guiding light.
Verse: Well they call Jerome the groove king
He can make those high-hats sing
If he ever gets his cymbals out of hock
He swears he gots a steady thing.
Verse: And we all know the secret
Of the Woman In White
She?s saving herself for Elvis
On their wedding night.
Chorus: Designated angel watch over me tonight
There?s a bad moon bearin? down on me
Designated angel watch over me tonight
Oh Angeline, you?re my guiding light.
Verse: Instrumental
Chorus: Designated angel watch over me tonight
There?s a bad moon bearin? down on me
Designated angel watch over me tonight
Oh Angeline, you?re my guiding light.
Verse: Angeline runs a Clearinghouse for Misfits
She always got a pot a stew boiling away
And I know I?m just another bowl in her soup line
But I?ll love Angeline to my dyin? day.
Oh Angeline, you?re my guiding light.
