Bill Madden - Prick Up Your Ears Lyrics

Pack up the mule
Untie the camel
Fill up the Humvee
And the Mercedes Benz
We’re headin’ for the dunes
To a tent party
To listen to the Imam
Sing a blue hymn

Smell the sweet hookah
Burning with hashish
Not quite the same scent
As phosphor on skin
A few miles away now
Clusters are falling
Like toys from the sky
For precocious kids
O mama, look what we did
Prick up your ears
Prick up your ears
Prick up your ears
And get what’s
Goin’ down now

Life is precious
Life is dear
War’s a waste
Prick up your ears

Pack up the mule
Untie the camel
Fill up the Humvee
And the Mercedes Benz
We’re headin’ for the dunes
To a tent party
To listen to the Imam
Sing a blue hymn
How in the world
Did we get here
Fire the hookah
Pour some more beer
O mama, what a mess
Prick up your ears
Prick up your ears
Prick up your ears
And get what’s
Goin’ down now
