You wake
up in the morning, get something
for the pot
Wonder why
the sun makes the rocks feel hot
Draw on the

Forgive me
father for I have sinned
Benny turned
the dial on his Short Wave radio
Forgive me
father
Benny turned
the dial on his Short Wave radio

Citizen: Well it might work!
Concerned Citizen: Sure! Only it's going to be mighty dangerous for you, Cassidy Hoppys
faithful sidekick: guess you don't know
