6
The sins of memphisto
7
Sally used to play with her hula hoops
8
Now she tells her problems to therapy groups
9
Grampa's on the front lawn staring at a rake
10
Wondering if his marriage was a terrible mistake
11
I'm sitting on the front steps drinking orange crush
12
Wondering if it's possible if I could still blush
13
Uh huhoh yeah
14
A boy on a bike with courduroy slacks
15
Sleeps in the river by the railroad tracks
16
He waits for the whistle on the train to scream
17
[The Sins of Memphisto lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]So he can close his eyes and begin to dream
18
Uh huh oh yeah
19
The hands on his watch spin slowly around
20
With his mind on a bus that goes all over town
21
Looking at the babies and the factories
22
And listening to the music of mister squeeze
23
As if by magic or remote control
24
He finds a piece of a puzzle
25
That he missed in his soul
26
Uh huh oh yeah
27
Adam and eve and lucy and ricky
28
Bit the big apple and got a little sticky
29
Esmeralda and the hunchback of notre dame
30
They humped each other like they had no shame
31
They paused as they posed for a polaroid photo
32
She whispered in his ear "exactly odo quasi modo"
