Big Redrum Taxi

I don't want to get off on another rant here, but why did Joe destroy the one good thing about Summers? Joe, why did you pave paradise?

They painted the old back room, put up the new Redrum
With a pink ascot, a Yuengling, and a swinging hot spot
Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got til its gone
They painted the old back room, put up the new Redrum

They took all the good bartenders, put them in a good bartender museum
Overcharged all the people on their drinks just to see 'em
Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got til its gone
They painted the old back room, put up the new Redrum

Hey Terry, Terry, put away the Red-Headed Sluts now
Give me sparks on my apples, but tell me about the birds & the bees
Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got til its gone
They painted the old back room, put up the new Redrum

Late last night, I heard Summers New Door Slam
And the Big Yellow Taxi took away my cd of Wham
Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got til its gone
They painted the old back room, put up the new Redrum

Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got til its gone
They painted the old back room, put up the new Redrum

  1. It didn't take the Red Room for me to know that Green was better.

    The Courts are winding down
    The cabs are calling it a night
    It’s raining in the Red Room twenty paces south
    Where no one should be, everyone’s around
    I need some green paint
    I need a paint brush
    I need some splash guard
    I need some green paint

  2. Did I hear my name?

    Green is better, but I prefer that you address me as Mr. Green, so as not to confuse me with Reverend Green, a less handsome inanimate object from the game Clue. My fans aren't the sharpest light bulbs in the bunch, so you need to be clear.

    Crystal clear.

  3. Dear Mr. Green,

    I do not like your bobblehead.
    I want to beat it… with a loaf of bread.
    Or rip it off with a tweezer.
    It makes you look like an old geezer.

  4. He's a bobblehead, what did you expect EMT? He's shorter than a smurf so my guess is that he has a serious Napoleon complex. And he may even have blue balls like a Smurf. Plus, he's a real shitty hockey player so he's got other things to worry about besides earning your approval.
