I got Elvis on my elbow
When I flex, Elvis talks
I got hula girls on the back of my leg
and she hulas when I walk.
Screeching cherry red,
screaming 'lectric green
purple mountain's majesty
C'mon, talk to me! Talk to me babe!

Show me your dragon magic!

So auto-bio-graphic.
Best believe that needle hurt you.
Best to see these true colors
Than follow one of your false virtues
A little secret to make you think:
Why is the crazy stuff we never say
poetry in ink?
Smokin' day-glow red;
explodo pink!
Purple mountains majesty -
Show me you? I'll show you me.

Uncle Danny had a coal tattoo
He fought for the union
Some of us still do
On my shoulder is the number
of the chapter he was in
that number is forever like
the struggle here to win.
Everybody!

I'm pretty sure that "trampstamp cat" is "trampstamp tat" and "mousewife to mombshell" is "housewife to bombshell". Just my 2 cents.

You're right about "tramp stamp tat"but "mousewife to momshell" is the correct lyrics
Shane007
Definately "mousewife to momshell" and it is also "Trampstamp Tat" . How do I know this? The inside sleeve of the CD ! Van Halen Rock !!!

Dang, now I'm not sure.

I think "So I don't buy your graphic" should be so auto-bio-graphic in the first chorus.
Also..."Why is the crazy stuff we never say always written in ink?" should be Why is the crazy stuff we'd NEVER say, POETRY in ink."
THANKS!
