Stan Ridgway - Funzone lyrics
rate mespoken:
You know, when we were all like, uh, about this high, knee-high to a jackelope,
We always figured that the fun thing to do was to go to a funzone.
Let's go––let's go to a funzone.
Heads up in the sky and all the animals are waiting for the big show for tonight
Fat man calls my name, and calls me over to the tent he's waiting in by the ones « that » fight
« ????? » at night and every weekend in his trailer in the back while « ? the weather clowns hold? » a poker game
Even the fat man pays
Chorus:
Let's go to the funzone
We'll have a whole lot of fun
It's all there at the funzone
It's over when the fun is all done
Ride the fastest ride, you get a ticket from the man there in the booth all painted black
Corn dog for a buck, you take three bites and then you chuckle––there's some ice cream down your back
Meet a girl at night, she's talkin' to ya while you coax her to a trailer in the back
While Ronald kicks his dog around
Now there's some weird ice cream stuck on my shoe
It used to be a buck––well, now it's two
And there's a ferris wheel where you spin around
Someone didn't like it––they got sick on the ground
Chorus:
Let's go to the funzone
We'll have a whole lot of fun
It's all there at the funzone
But why does that clown have a gun
At the funzone
The funzone
At the funzone
We'll be there or we'll all be left at home
« Passed that » girl at night, you're talkin' to her while you coax her to a trailer in the back
While Ronald kicks his dog around
Now there's some weird ice cream stuck on my shoe
It used to be a buck––well, now it's two
And there's a ferris wheel where you spin around
Someone didn't like it––they got sick on the ground
Chorus:
Let's go to the funzone
We'll have a whole lot of fun
It's all there at the funzone
It's over when the fun is all done
At the funzone
The funzone
At the funzone
The funzone
Let's go to the funzone
We'll have a whole lot of fun
It's all there at the funzone
But be sure to wash your hands when you get home
