Mott the Hoople and the Game of LifeYeah-yeah-yeah-yeahAndy...

Mott the Hoople and the Game of Life
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Andy Kaufman in the wrestling match
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Monopoly, 21 checkers, and chess
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Mister Fred Blassie in a breakfast mess
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Let's play Twister, let's play Risk
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
I'll see you in Heaven if you make the list
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

So Andy, did you hear about this one?
Tell me, are you locked in the punch?
Hey Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? "Hey, baby"
Are you having fun?

If you believed they put a man on the moon
(Man on the moon)
If you believed there's nothing up his sleeve
Then nothing is cool

Moses went walking with the staff of wood
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Newton got beaned by the apple good
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Egypt was troubled by the horrible asp
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Mister Charles Darwin had the balls to ask
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

So Andy, did you hear about this one?
Tell me, are you locked in the punch?
Hey Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? "Hey, baby"
Are you losing touch?

If you believed they put a man on the moon
(Man on the moon)
If you believe there's nothing up his sleeve
Then nothing is cool

Come on

Here's a little agit for the never-believer
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Here's a little ghost for the offering
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Here's a truck stop instead of Saint Peter's
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Mister Andy Kaufman's gone wrestling
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

So Andy, did you hear about this one?
Tell me, are you locked in the punch?
Hey Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? "Hey, baby"
Are you having fun?

If you believed they put a man on the moon
(Man on the moon)
If you believe there's nothing up his sleeve
Then nothing is cool (nothing)

Come on

If you believed they put a man on the moon
(Man on the moon)
If you believe there's nothing up his sleeve
Then nothing is cool (nothing)

If you believed they put a man on the moon
(Man on the moon)
If you believe there's nothing up my sleeve
Then nothing is cool (yeah)

If you believe there's nothing up my sleeve
Then nothing is cool
Come on

A toast

To the fair of city
To a beautiful monument
To a beautiful people
The end
