Lyrics
The lonesome friends of science say The world will end most any day Well, if it doesn't, that's okay 'Cause I don't live here anyway I live down deep inside my head Well, long ago I made my bed I get my mail in Tennessee My wife, my dog and my family Uh-huh Poor ol' planet Pluto now He never stood a chance no how When he got uninvited to The interplanetary dance Once a mighty planet there Now just an ordinary star Hanging out in Hollywood In some ol' funky sushi bar The lonesome friends of science say The world will end most any day Well, if it doesn't, that's okay 'Cause I don't live here anyway I live down deep inside my head Well, long ago I made my bed I get my mail in Tennessee My wife, my dog, my kids and me Uh-huh The Vulcan lives in Birmingham Sometimes he just don't give a damn His head is full of bumblebees His pride hangs down below his knees Venus left 'em long ago For a guy named Mars from Idaho The Vulcan sent a wedding gift Three-legged stool and a wheelchair lift Uh-huh The lonesome friends of science say This world will end most any day Well, if it doesn't, that's okay 'Cause I don't live here anyway I live down deep inside my head Well, long ago I made my bed I get my mail in Tennessee My wife, my dog, my kids and me Uh-huh, uh-huh Uh-huh, uh-huh Uh-huh Those bastards in their white lab coats Who experiment with mountain goats Should leave the Universe alone It's not their business, not their home I go to sleep and it never rains My dog predicts a hurricane She just smell a storm a mile away That's all the news we have today Uh-huh The lonesome friends of science say This world will end most any day Well, if it doesn't, that's okay 'Cause I don't live here anyway I live down deep inside my head Well, long ago I made my bed I get my mail in Tennessee My wife, my dog, my kids and me Uh-huh, uh-huh Uh-huh, uh-huh Uh-huh
