From the recording The Benefit of Doubt
Lyrics
I was looking for a girlfriend
I was thinking it might be you
You had a special plan
And it looked a lot like voodoo
Some strands of hair from my hat
A little drool, 'cause I sleep like that
Some drops of blood from your damn cat
And you think that's why I love you
You can stab the doll all day
You can even shake and dance
Lookin' back, it seems more likely
Everything's a game of chance
I was looking for salvation
Feeling bad about things I've done
And you seemed like a very nice person
Well, you were certain about the Cross
Gave me a mighty howdy-do
You've got a dead-man walkin' boss
Sounds a lot like voodoo
You can press your hands together
Pray yourself into a trance
Lookin' back, it seems more likely
Everything's a game of chance
Maybe there's something certain
Maybe there's a road to hell
Maybe there's a friendly god
Who loves us even when we smell
That would be cool
But you seem inexplicably hopeful
I don't really wanna mess with that
This is where some people yodel
Happiest sound far and away
Five-string banjo distant second
I should really learn how some day
Yodellee yodellee yodellee yodellay
Maybe I'm yodeling
I doubt I'm yodeling
Yodellee yodellee yodellee...
Maybe there's a goblin somewhere
Maybe magic's in your pants
Lookin' back, it seems more likely
Everything's a game of chance
Ahhh Alice
Remember Alice?
It's a song
