Vic ChesnuttOnion Soup Lyrics:
thin and unshaved, drunk and mysteriousooh, I must
say lifestyle is curiouswith a little touch of the
sniffles and filthy socksgnawed, crumbled
fingernails never doing tomahawk chops a flaky
head dandruff is distinguishedlacquer is red vain
is the varnishwhat is at the root of this, she'll
say, whatcha got what participle do you possess
she'll say, which I have not
one blustery day we rode out to the meadowlandswe
saw and were amazed then hauled it back into town
againMississippi is a mess sometimes and not only
when it rainshow come you went back to that
malaria island'cause our friendship is strained
those were the days when you were so
cosmopolitanthese are the days, my letters they're
so maudlinI wrote you an eloquent postcard
onceabout this most exquisite onion soupbut of
course I never mailed though'cause it was your
turn in the loop
those were the days when you were so cosmopolitan
these are the days, my letters they're
increasingly maudlin
