The Bobs - Something In My Ear lyrics

I got Persian rugs I got exterminated bugs I got a house that goes from over there to here Yeah, my basement's full of fine imported beer. But I got somethin' -- somethin' in my ear I got ducks that float I got a power boat I got a wife who's almost got her MBA In every argument I always get my way But when I walk my dog, he always runs away One inch away from heaven I'm on a train that's bound for glory But as I ride those shining rails I always bite my nails I got tubeless tires I got phones without wires I got a hundred-year-old bonsai redwood tree I've had successful arthroscopic surgery (on his knee) But last Friday a pigeon pooped on me One inch away from heaven I've almost made it to Nirvana It's the little things that teach Perfection's out of reach I got a way with girls I got natural curls I got a straight man when I want to take a fall There's an autographed photo of the Pope on my wall But when I phone him, he never returns my call But when I phone him, he never returns my call But when I phone that Pope, he never returns my call (Pope John Paul)
