Lyrics
Brown Eyed Suzy
Words and music by Debbie Clemmer & David Osti
I?m gonna tell you a story about a padded cell
Psycodelic windows of my private hell
When it?s time to check myself
I just can?t get in line
A messenger of happiness
Is the one I?m gonna stand behind.
A feathered moon come down and fucks
The angel of inspiration
Step inside my little cell
It?s a magical parade
Of limitless intangibles
And ya got to get blown away
A giant butterfly of love
That spreads out across the nation.
Brown eyed Suzy
Brown eyed Suzy
Brown eyed Suzy
Stick out your thumb
Hold out your hand
Here comes the one they call the garbage man
The garbage man
The garbage man
The garbage uh man
He don?t need no carousel
He don?t need no lights
He got what you want in the back of his truck
And it?s gonna be outta sight.
Brown eyed Suzy
Brown eyed Suzy
Brown eyed Suzy
Stick out your thumb
Hold out your hand
Here comes the one they call him the garbage man
The garbage man
The out your thumb
Hold out your hand
Here comes the one they call him the garbage man
The garbage man
The garbage man
The garbage man
