Money In The Bottle

 

Well it's time the band stepped down. We'll be back in just a bit.

See, the drummer's playing dead, and the bass man needs a hit.

So you know we'll be right back, after Chissy's snack attack.

 

Put the money in the bottle. We'll take 5 to let our fingers mend.

You know money in the bottle will bring us back again.

 

Well, our singers need a break or they'll lose their sonic charm.

If we don't get off this stage, we could trip the smoke alarm.

So we must stop real soon, or we might just flood the room.

 

Put the money in the bottle. We'll take 5 or else we'll wet the floor.

Put the money in the bottle we'll be back for more.

Put the money in the bottle. We'll take 5 or else we'll wet the floor.

If there's money in the bottle we'll be back for more.

 

End: Put the money... in the bottle... and. we.. will.. be.. right.. back
