Lyrics for Stranded In A Limousine

He was a mean individual He had a heart like a bone He was a naturally crazy man And better off left alone Well he stopped one night At a traffic light And when that light turned green He was a mean individual Stranded in a Limousine Hey hey hey hey All the children in the street They come running out their front door Running out their back doors Flying on their feet They said Mama oh Papa oh See what I have seen Theres a mean individual stranded in a Limousine Then everybody came running Everybody said Lord Lord Everbody was gunning Theyre gonna divy up the reward And then wah wah wah wah wah wha wah With a siren and a flashing light But the mean individual He vanished in the black of night Hey hey hey hey They wondered where to begin Cause he left that neighborhood Just like the rattlesnake sheds its skin Well then they searched the roofs And they checked out the groups And they photographed the scene For the mean individual Stranded in a Limousine Then everybody came running Everybody said Lord Lord Everbody was gunning Theyre gonna divy up the reward And then wah wah wah wah wah wha wah With a siren and a flashing light But the mean individual He vanished in the black of night The mean individual He vanished in the black of night The mean individual He vanished in the black of night
