Lyrics for Sam

Maybe they had a ridiculous statement to make About something they hadn't experienced Possibly Sam had a different opinion That nobody'd ever considered important And damn it if Norman and Betty were listening Somebody would have become a phenomenal Howling lightning tampering with the Electrical evidence shown to be relevant Possibly with the exception of ivory Everyone else had abandoned the obvious Chipping away at erroneous garbage Which definitely is as exciting as pudding Deliciously spooned from the lap of the Ludicrous Into the mouths of the questionless idiots Licking their lips as their eyeballs are rolling And flapping their tongues as they're losing their marbles That's the way Sam play around That's the way Sam play Someone who wasn't related to anyone Twisted the facts till the truth was apparent And dished up a dollop of dubious doo-doo That sparkled like something folks scrambled to swallow Slipping the rich through the eye of a needle Is easy as getting a camel to heaven And granny transgressing had blubbered A bibful of classified info on Milton's imbroglio That's the way Sam play around That's the way Sam play That's the way Sam play around That's the way Sam play That's the way Sam play around That's the way Sam play Maybe they had a ridiculous statement to make About something they hadn't experienced Possibly Sam had a different opinion That nobody'd ever considered important And maybe they had a ridiculous statement to make About something they hadn't experienced Possibly Sam had a different opinion That nobody'd ever considered important
