That Handsome Devil - Elephant Bones lyrics

Lord, send down some angels And they'd better have guns 'Cause everybody's crazy down here On everybody's d** Casinos, p**nos, talk shows Where white trash goes to die Bums push carts, crackhead squirrels And birds too drunk to fly Keep dancin' it's the end of the world She said "Oh baby, it's the end of the world" Come on baby, it's the end of the world She said "Smile, it's the end of the world" Keep dancin' to the end of the world She said "Oh baby, it's the end of the world" Come on baby, it's the end of the world She said "Smile, it's the end of the world" And they sent down some astronauts To study our bones Through the miles of garbage Beneath all the junk that we owned Carbon dating beer cans Condoms and Twinkie wrappers We were something beautiful, baby What the hell happened? Keep dancin' it's the end of the world She said "Oh baby, do the end of the world" Come on baby, it's the end of the world She said "Smile to the end of the world" Keep dancin' to the end of the world She said "Oh baby, it's the end of the world" Come on baby, it's the end of the world She said "Smile, it's the end of the world" Don't need no headstone to be dead in a hole I said they're gonna dig you up like some elephant bones Don't need no headstone to be dead in a hole I said they're gonna dig you up like some elephant bones Don't need no headstone to be dead in a hole I said they're gonna dig you up like some elephant bones, bones, bones Don't need no headstone to be dead in a hole I said they're gonna dig you up like some elephant bones, bones, bones If you were worth it, they'd skin you too For some new tennis shoes Or a couch that fits the motif of the living room And doesn't clash with your business suits I want to be in a museum Stuffed and in a realistic position like I'm huntin' Callin' someone or buyin' something Way too busy to look up and see what was comin' Keep dancin' it's the end of the world She said "Oh baby, do the end of the world" Come on baby, it's the end of the world She said "Smile to the end of the world" Keep dancin' to the end of the world She said "Oh baby, it's the end of the world" Come on baby, it's the end of the world She said "Smile, it's the end of the world" I want my bones kept next to somebody of cultural significance Like Fonzie or William Shatner, ha ha ha Yeah, somebody famous like Gilbert Gottfried or the dog from Frasier That caveman they found? He was a punk - I knew him in high school ( You know, it's an exciting thing to watch the way a new song becomes a hit song - the way it catches on and grows in ever-increasing popularity. And I'll tell you something, that's just the way I feel about another big popular hit I've got right here.)
