The Lovin' Spoonful - Pow (Theme From "What's Up, Tiger Lily?") lyrics

I've always been the guy with the finger in his nose When the pa**port picture gets taken When the big guys took me out stealin' chickens It was me caught holdin' the bacon When they're droppin' a piano from the 47th floor I'm the guy underneath lookin' up And when the tidal wave strikes a hundred miles at sea I'm always at the rail throwin' up Whee until Pow! Somehow I woulda met you anyhow You fix it up and then holy cow You folks should oughta see me now.... I was standing in the artsy-fartsy uptown restaurant a few frozen dinners ago When I stumbled on a waiter full of crepes suzettes And I ran out the door flambeaux Then I ran down to Chinatown doused myself with soy sauce And grabbed some moo goo gai-pan to go When I got wiped out by a stray bean sprout that was landin' on the floor Whee until Pow! Somehow I woulda met you anyhow You fix it up and then holy cow You folks should oughta see me now.... Well I finally got so fed up I was off to blow my head off With the gun inside the cash box at the store Then I thought I'd grab a fistful Just in case I weren't successful But instead I got my tie caught in the drawer When you're riding down the road at a hundred miles an hour And the guy ahead is hitching someplace Honey don't you be surprised I'll be wiping out my eyes If you pa** me leaving dust in my face Whee until Pow! Somehow I woulda met you anyhow You fix it up and then holy cow You folks should oughta see me now.... Whee until Pow! Somehow I woulda met you anyhow You fix it up and then holy cow You folks should oughta see me now....
