Smash Mouth Fush Yu Mang Lyrics
1.Heave-Ho

Neighbor called my landlord
She said that she was pissed
Up all night making noise
And she can't get no rest
She said we was running a flop house
Full of thieves and thugs
Musicians and hooligans and we were all on drugs
So she got bent and raised the rent
Said it would only take one more
Phone call from my whiny neighbor

What's up with my neighbor
What's it gonna take to get a break
She's got us tiptoeing around in fear
Church mice at St. Leo's down my street
Have moved so far away
She has sent them packing and running scared
How much more does she think we will take

Maybe someday when I'm old and fat and bored
I'll understand why my neighbor makes me feel like hell
I can't even watch TV or sneeze or fart can't even breathe
For fear my landlord will come and ring my bell
How much more does she think we will pay

No more flop house no more fun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
Shooting cans with BB guns
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
She says these punks have to go
I think we're gonna get the old heave ho

Neighbor called my landlord
It was a Sunday afternoon
She couldn't hear the TV set
We were having a barbecue
We were listening to Louis Prima
And drinking Meisterbrau
If she would have come to talk it over
And wasn't a lazy cow
So she got bent she raised the rent
Said it would only take one more
Phone call from my whiny neighbor

Maybe someday when I'm jaded
9 to 5 at a job I hate
I'll come home and razz my neighbors too
But I'd have a strategy
And catch them when the rent is late
And all the other bills are overdue
After all this is the neighborly way

No more music no more fun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
Barbecues in the sun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
She says that these punks must go
I think we're gonna get the old heave ho

Don't even hide the dog
Or put the bong away
We don't want to live here anyway

Neighbor called my landlord
She said we didn't care
The lawn is dead
Dogs and cats are stinking everywhere
She said that we had crazy parties every night
The yard is littered with bottles and cans
Skateboards and bikes
She didn't get bent
Didn't raise the rent
We only got a note
In 30 days we'll get the old heave ho

WAAAAAOO.....WAAAAAaaAAOO.....

No more music no more fun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
Barbecues in the sun
I've got a whiny neighbor
I've got a whiny neighbor
She says that these punks must go
I think we're gonna get the old heave ho


2.Pet Names

Just when I thought everything would be okay
Just when I started to believe that everything was going my way
Out came the cloud from under my feet
Crashing back down to reality

You used to call me pumpkin now I'm Halloween
Remember when I used to be your jelly bean
You used to call me schnookums and shit like that
Now you're after me with a baseball bat

I remember when I used to be the king
Your honey sweety darling baby everything
I used to be your tall dark mystery man
Now I'm just straight up history man

Just when I thought everything would be alright
Just when I started to believe that everything was out of sight
You left me with nothing but a scribbled note
That said I would no longer be your love boat
From here on out my pet name would be X
Your X your X your X

It used to be sugar then it turned into salt
I used to rock your world now I'm standing on a fault line
Lying naked in a hail storm in the dark
You're my little tornado and I am your trailer park
You used to call me names too cute to repeat
Like honey bunch hairy bear and piccolo peet
Goochy goochy goo gaga shit like that
Now you're after me screaming you dirty rat

I don't remember applying for a name change
So why is it you're calling me Mister Deranged
Psycopathic pornographic stinking drunk
Failing fast lying ass worthless punk

You used to call me sweety pie and baby doll
I guess another stud's kicking in my stall
You'll probably call him superman or loverboy
You'll probably disregard him like a broken toy

Just when he thought everything was going his way
Just when he started to believe that everything was hunky dory
He'll look at that cloud that he's standing on
And with an itsy bitsy teeny little almost inaudible squeak
He'll notice
It's gone

From here on out his pet name would be X
Your X your X your X

Sweety pie?
No X
Honey bunch?
No X
Bubble butt?
No X
Pumpkin face?


3.Flo

Your friends keep telling me
I bear a striking resemblance to
Someone you used to know
But baby it's me
So why the hell do you keep calling me 'Flo'
And I would hope
That you would have the decency to
Let me go
In case of an emergency

But you keep reassuring me
Telling me to just quit tripping on it
And maybe it's me
I guess that I should probably get a grip on it
'But' it's hard to do
Every time I see that tattoo
Over your heart
It ain't right I can't even look at you

Why you doing what you're doing
You should be doing what you want
Who the fuck you think you're fooling
She's the one the one you want

Florence if you hear this won't you
Come and take your girlfriend back
She's been calling out your name
Every time we're in the sack
She's been a mess since you've been apart
So Flo if you had half the heart
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo

We've been going for awhile
But lately she's been somewhere else
She don't even smile
And I think it's a cry for 'Help'
And I would pray
That you would have the common courtesy
To take her away
It ain't right she don't belong to me

Why you doing what you're doing
You should be doing what you want
You're the only one you're fooling
She's the one the one you want

Florence if you hear this won't you
Come and pick your girlfriend back
She's been talking in her sleep
And I think that I've had enough
She's been a wreck since you've been away
So Flo if you have something to say
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me Flo
Florence can you hear me
Can you hear me


4.Padrino

Life imitates the game of chess
You can be the rook or the pawn
But if you have the strategy that's best
You can be the King or in this case the Don
It's easy to get knocked out of the game
Depending on which way you want to play
You've got to have eyes on the back of your head
Now that we have that out of the way

CHORUS:
Rev up the Lincoln
And let's get to drinking some caffeino
Let's go to Nicolletis
Cause he makes a mean spaghetti sauce
I'm a connoisseur of the finer things in life
I'll talk any flick with Al Pacino
I'm a man of respect and I prefer to be addressed as Padrino

If you're the type that likes to spill the beans
You could be a stone in someone's shoe
You'll receive a kiss on each cheek
And then you'll know that pretty soon the stone will be removed
Everyone knows that crime doesn't pay
It doesn't pay the taxes away
You've got to be slick if you don't want it to stick
Now that we have that out of the way

I know it's not a wise thing to do
Writing funny songs about the mob
But if it's all the same to you
I don't see it as a gang but a club
Where men sit like gentlemen
Plotting their events about
Things I shouldn't understand, comprehend or care
Like...oh, I don't know maybe I shouldn't go there
After all it is a family affair

Stay out of the papers
Don't get caught
Leave the singing to Sinatra and always keep your big trap shut
Capice?

The underworld is like an undertow - If you don't respect it
It will surely bring you down - When you least expect it -
Hey expect it from all sides
Once you're in it it's for life
Don't be famous be infamous and you will live to see another day
Be wise about with whom you discuss
Now that we have that out of the way


5.Walkin' on the Sun

It ain't no joke I'd like to buy the world a toke
and teach the world to sing in perfect harmony
and teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars
hey i know it's just a song but it's spice for the recipe
this is a love attack i know it went out but it's back
it's just like any fad it retracts before impact
and just like fashion it's a passion for the with it and hip
if you got the goods they'll come and buy it just to stay in the
clique

CHORUS:

So don't delay, act now supplies are running out
Allow, if your still alive, six to eight years to arrive
and if you follow there may be a tomorrow but if
the offer's shun, you might as well be walkin' on the sun

Twenty five years ago they spoke out and they broke out
of recession and opression and together they toked
and they folked out with guitars around a bonfire
just singin' and clapin' man what the hell happened
some were spell bound some were hell bound
some they fell down and some got back up and
fought against the melt down
and their kids are hippie chicks all hypocrites
because fashion is smashin' the true meaning of it

CHORUS:

It ain't no joke when mamma's hankercheif is soaked
with the tears because her baby's life has been revoked
the bond is broke up so choke up and focus on the closeup
Mr. Wizard can't perform no GOD like hocus pocus
so don't sit back kick back and watch the world get bushwacked
news at 10:00 your neighborhood is under attack
put away the crack before the crack puts you away
you need to be there when your baby's old enough to relate

CHORUS:


6.Nervous in the Alley

She's 15 and she's leaving home
Living on the streets where she don't feel alone
Daddy's always gone and mommy's on the sauce
Living in a mansion it's easy to get lost
She's going to a place where they understand
Baby's on the way her womb's a garbage can

Who said anything about a good life
This one's bad bad bad bad
Gonzo again - just another entry to the neverending story
Wasted again - I think you need a new best friend

Nervous in the alley off the boulevard
Shaking all over and the panic starts
You see she needs to get her prescription filled
And she knows exactly how she'll be billed
Nervous in the alley waiting for a fix
She ain't got no money just a couple of tricks

Who said anything about a charmed life
This one's sad sad sad sad
Gonzo again - just another entry to the neverending story
Wasted again - I think you need a new best friend

Who said anything about a good life
Who said anything about a charmed life
Who said anything about a fair life
It's mad

Dying in the alley waiting for her man
Carrying her child and a sleeping bag
Should have would have could have never crossed her mind
So she passes on to the other side
Here he comes suit shades car and a beeper
Sugar daddy pimp pushing f***ing grim reaper

Who said anything about a fair life
This one's mad mad mad mad
Gonzo again - just another entry to the neverending story
Wasted again - I think you need a new friend
Gonzo again - just another entry to the neverending story
Wasted again - she's got herself a new best friend


7.Disconnect the Dots

Today you sat up half asleep and stared
Into this cluttered empty apartment and died
What the where the how the why the hell
You can watch your step and still you'll never see the mines

CHORUS:
Stay up man don't drown
It's time to go to town
Today is just another yesterday
You're back in the game again
You're going to win it in the end
Disconnect the dots and be on your way

Every day I see you sinking low
Dragging around like it's the end of the world
She's gone she's gone she's gone man let it go
Cause in the end she didn't turn out to be much of a girl

CHORUS 2:
Stay up man don't sink
Before you have time to blink
Your number one will walk through the door and want to play
You're back in the game again
You're gonna to win it in the end
Disconnect the dots
Disconnect the dots and be on your way

RAP:
Thought you had it good so secure so sure
Looking at the map and didn't see the detour
D.I.V.O.R.C.E. or something of that sort
Disconnect the dots my man the ball's in your court
Get yourself a shave and put on your best hat
The world is your aquarium and you are the cat
So dive right in and don't forget to swim
You're back in the game again

CHORUS:
Stay up man don't drown
It's time to go to town
Today is just another yesterday
You're back in the game again
You're gonna to win it in the end
Disconnect the dots
Disconnect the dots
Disconnect the dots and be on your way


8.The Fonz

I wanna try your shoes on
And wear them for a day
Learn to walk like you do
And say what I see
I'd talk like I know something
That everyone wanted to hear

But you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
But you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz

The definition of icy
The measure of what's up
You could play the tuba
And everyone would clap
Well I can play the tuba
And they all just shake their heads

Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz

I know it's over for me
I know it's over for me
I know it's over for me
I know it's over

I drove my car to the top floor
And stood at the edge
When I woke up in heaven
Looked down and no one cared
But when you pulled your own trigger
They all gathered around to watch

Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Cause you're the Fonz
You're the Fonz

Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the Fonz
You're the Fonz
Because you are the


9.Why Can't we be Friends

Why can't we be friends (4x)

I seen ya I seen ya I seen ya 'round for a long long time
I really I really I really remember when you drank my wine

Why can't we be friends (4x)

I seen ya I seen ya I seen ya walkin' down in Chinatown
I called ya I called ya I called but you did not look around
I pay my I pay my I pay my money to the welfare line
I seen ya I seen ya I seen ya standing in it everytime

Why can't we be friends (4x)

The color the color the color of your skin don't matter to me
As long as as long as long as we can live in harmony
I kinda I kinda I kinda like to be the president
And I could and I could and I could show you how your money's
spent

Why can't we be friends (4x)

Sometimes I don't speak right
But did I know what I was talking about
I know you're working for the CIA
They wouldn't have you in the mafia

Why can't we be friends (4x)
Why can't we be friends (4x)
Why can't we be friends (4x)
Why can't we be friends (4x)
Why can't we be friends (4x)

Why can't we be friends (4x)
Why can't we be friends (4x)


10.Push

Why don't you condone it
Why don't you set me free
I don't think you own it
Cause it belongs to me
And if I ever want to take it back
You try to lie and hide it
Look who's laughing last
Everyone around me thinks they know
They try to see it
But I don't let it show
Stay out of my business
Keep your hands off my door
I've got a bed
I'd rather sleep on the floor
Screaming in my head
I don't like it anymore

No place to go
Leave me alone
I don't want to know

Nobody ever seems to understand
Every day I wake up
And do the best that I can
I've got my problems
You've got yours too
You try to label me
Have you ever looked at you
Nobody's perfect
I really think you do
And if you are why am I standing next to you

No place to go
Leave me alone
I don't want to know

I spin my wheels and try to figure it out
What's going on
And what's it all about
Where did I go wrong
I think I'm having my doubts
About what you said
And what you're going to do
I'm so pissed off
I blame it on you
I've done it all
There's nothing left for me to do
What's going on
Piss on you

No place to go
Leave me alone
Don't want to know


11.Beer Goggles

I don't love you but I want to
Just give me something I can hold on to
Come on baby and speed your lust to me
Here's my number on a cocktail napkin
Think about it like a loaded weapon
Cock the hammer and point that thing at me

Why don't you call
Why don't you call
Why don't you call
Kill me for the thrill of it all

I want someone anyone
Tall ones short ones skinny ones
I want someone anyone

You spend your nights at home crying
I spend mine death defying
I call it testing morality
So pull the goggles down over your eyes
And say good night to the rest of the barflies
I'm forever yours temporarily

Why don't you call
Why don't you call
Why don't you call
Kill me for the thrill of it all

I want someone anyone
Drunk ones spun ones anyone
I want someone anyone
Fat ones whacked ones give me some
I want someone anyone
Spend some rent one lend me one
Fun ones dumb ones gypsy chicks on rocks
Done ones even chicks with chicken pox

I want someone anyone
I want someone anyone
I want someone anyone
I want someone anyone
Drunk ones spun ones give me some
I want someone anyone
Fat ones whacked ones anyone
I want someone anyone


12.Let's Rock

Lately I've been thinking about the past
About the good times
And have they all come and gone
And are there more years behind than ahead
Then I say to myself

Fuck it let's rock
Let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock

Lately I've been thinkin' who's in charge
About who they are
And are they looking down and laughing hard
And are they aliens or robots or humanoids or gods
I think I'm just paranoid

Fuck it let's rock
Let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock

BRIDGE:
What if someone takes my cat what if she runs away
What if she gets hit
What if someone takes my chick what if she runs away
I won't be blue
Cuz I know what to do

Lately I've been thinking about my vices
And about the prices
That I'll later have to pay
I've been thinking about myself
And about my health
Then I'll say what the hell

Let's rock let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock
Let's rock let's rock let's rock


13.Why Cant We Be Friends
