the Paptacular Pappy the Sailor...

I remember the bus ride
Rainin' down as cold Mai Tais
Shadows of a hat
A face through a window
Imbibing all the night
The night goes into

Mornin', just another day?
Sippin' people pass my way
Lookin' in their eyes
I see a hazy memory
I never realized
How happy you made me, oh Pappy

Well, you came and you took lots o' pictures
But I sent you a lame thank you, oh Pappy
well, you greeted me and gave me some free stuff
you are my hero. oh, Pappy

I'm standing on a wedge of lime
I've walked away from the Bali Hai
Caught up in a world of cocktails and pupus
All the tikis in my mind
And nothin' is rhyming, oh Pappy

Well, you came and you took lots o' pictures
But I sent you a lame thank you, oh Pappy
well, you greeted me and gave me some free stuff
you are my hero. oh, Pappy

Yesterday's a dream
I face the mornin'
tail between my legs
The pain is callin', oh Pappy

Well, you came and you took lots o' pictures
But I sent you a lame thank you, oh Pappy
well, you greeted me and gave me some free stuff
you are my hero. oh, Pappy

Well, you came and you took lots o' pictures
But I sent you a lame thank you, oh Pappy
well, you greeted me and gave me some free stuff
you are my hero!

That's the most beautiful thing anyone's ever written about me. sniff I have to go now. I have something in my eye.
