lyrics

Bonnie ate a beachball and Thelma went to hell
Right there on the operating table for a spell
While she was there her husband waved from the fire
All of this was told to me on Christmas eve night, yeah

Bonnie ate a beachball and things were alright
Bonnie ate a beachball and things were alright

Years later I’m walking down the street just trying to live in the light
Now things have slipped, I’m doing the suicide slide
The suicide slide, the suicide slide
Bonnie ate a beachball and things were alright
Alright, alright, alright

Here comes Santa Claus walking down the street throwing pennies over orphanage walls
His little babies been there all along
While he was there, he danced around the fire
And all this was told to me around the funeral pyre
Bonnie ate a beachball and things were alright
Bonnie ate a beachball and ruined his night

Things are not alright
Oh things are not alright, no
Things couldn't be better, they’re alright
Oh things are not alright

Bonnie ate a beachball and things were alright
Bonnie ate a beachball and ruined his night
Bonnie ate a beachball and Thelma went to hell
Right there on the operating table for a spell
Bonnie ate a beachball and things were alright
Bonnie ate a beachball
Alright

Lazarus had to live twice. This was a raw deal. In accordance with the grandiose acts of divine men, we’re now playing for our lives. Devout music boys, just trying to keep things civil while the guitar sweats.
