Lyrics
Potato Heads From Hell Wally Ford - 1996
One Saturday night I was eating french fries
When I felt the cold stare of Potato Head eyes
A Mr. Potato Head ran through the door
Behind him an army, a thousand or more
They shot me with beams and I knew it was real
I grabbed some utinsils and started to peel
I became overcome by the horrible smell
And they took me away to Potato Head Hell
CHORUS:
Mr. Potato Heads from Hell (x4)
They stuck me with toothpicks on into the night
Whipped me with switches by the Hell-fire light
My body was aching, I screamed and I moaned
But those greasy spud devils wouldn't leave me alone
They made me talk and I told all I knew
I confessed once or twice I had made Irish Stew
Some say it's crazy but I know too well
'Cos I was a prisoner in Potato Head Hell
REPEAT CHORUS
Those devil potatoes beat my body till dawn
Till some tattered old rags was all I had on
They stunk to high heaven as they started to bake
And the deafening screaming was all I could take
I broke all their ropes like a madman possessed
And stuck a pick through the head of the devil himself
I kicked and flung spuds in the fire as I yelled
And escaped with my life from Potato Head Hell
REPEAT CHORUS
