Cauliflower Jackson
Have you heard of my friend, Cauliflower Jackson?
Raised 17 boys and 11 girls working for Matson.
He jumped a train to Idaho,
Now all his kids are outside my window.
You recall a Samantha Guntwrench?
Assistant librarian, only spoke French.
Other day she jumped off the library roof and landed in the water.
Now she's lying on my kitchen floor thinking she's my daughter.
You recollect a Lil' Johnny Bieranbrat?
Why you lookin' at me like that?
He used to jump the fence and ride the gorillas at the zoo.
Until finally one day the gorillas do what the gorillas do.
They invited him to their cousin's party, my boss,
As it turns out, though we're leaving for it now, wanna join us?
