Captain Beefheart Cardboard Cutout Sundown lyrics

You Hardly Know A Day Goes By
In The Cardboard Cutout Sundown
The Moon Popped Up Like A Gallery Duck
Sipped Up Gold From The Sunny Cup
And Longhorns Sawed The Buggy Grass
And A Cowboy Blew A Harp Sitting On His Chapped Ass
And The Prarie Flowers Didn?T Look A Bit Queer
And The Stars Struck The Sand Cartwheeled
And Poked In The Prarie
A Cactus Juice Stand The Only Place
The Crows Couldn?T Land
The Bluebottle Flies Were As Big
As A Cowboy?S Eyes

And Their Buzz Was As Loud As Rattlers
A Fire Engine Red Whistle Blows Raspberries
In A Cloud Of Whipped Steam
A Tungle Weed Ran Out Black Patent Yarn Stinkbug Hoops
From Above A Living Mail Thriving Dot
In Perfect Sympathy
With The Cardboard Cutout Sundown
You Hardly Know A Day Goes By
In The Cardboard Cutout Sundown
