Dead Milkmen - I Tripped Over the Ottoman lyrics

rate me

They call me Robert Petry and I live in New Rochelle

With my wife Laura and son Richie but now

My life's a living hell cause

I tripped over the ottoman

One too many times

I tripped over the ottoman

Until I lost my mind...

I was head writer for Alan Brady

Maybe you've seen his show

It's now funny and it makes my ears bleed

This week's guest star isn't Danny Thomas

Our special guest star is Death!

Once I laughed at Buddy's jokes but

Now my life's a living hell, 'cause...

CHORUS

Morey Amsterdam can make a sane man crazy

Morey Amsterdam can make a nice guy kill

Morey Amsterdam can make a sane man crazy

Morey Amsterdam can make a nice guy kill

What did you bring me Daddy?

What did you bring me Daddy?

What did you bring me Daddy?

Well, I BROUGHT YOU DEATH!
