lyrics

Cinnamon Wells

I got a letter postmarked Cinnamon Wells
Edged in black and full of living cells
I put it down to nothing quite so much
Had ever stoned my rock proof sense of touch

Thought I’d go to hell
But now I’ve changed my mind
Gonna let you in on my very latest crime
Found it by myself and I ain’t going blind
If I catch you with the mountain
Gonna eat you alive, yeah

Called up the bakery called Wally & Son
I asked for happiness
And they said they had none
Speak of jelly donuts paving the way
I rolled in the jelly on my way home today

I did it by myself but that don’t change the news
Wally’s son invented bakery blues
Along with chockeruts and closed shop dues
No wonder I can’t sleep, I just blew another fuse, yeah
