Man    From    Milwaukee

It started at a bus stop in the middle of nowhere.
And Sitting beside me was a man with no hair.
From the look on his face and the size of his toes,
He'd come from a place that nobody knows.
Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating,
Letting this big-toed ballad man sitting here tell me about the sky.
Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating,
If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why.

I've been sitting here to long by a man from Milwaukee. He's been talking to long on his yellow walkie talkie. He's been talking to mars but I think he's wacky. He says they'll come get him, come get him someday.

He says where he's from is called Albertane, There they use more then ten percent of the brain. But you couldn't tell it from the way they behave, They run around in underware and they never shave. Or maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating, Letting this big-toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky. Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating, If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why.

(Repeat Chorus)

This is mother bird calling baby bird, Baby bird come in, come in Baby Bird, For the lovin' of Pete come in!

This is Baby Bird, sorry I was watching Court TV, Do you copy? Do you copy?

Of course we copy...24 hours a day... in color!

You wouldn't believe me if I told you the rest. The man sitting by me who was just barely dressed, Flew off to Milwaukee or perhaps Albertane, And left me at the bus stop just barely sane.

Oh maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating, If you asked me now I couldn't tell you why.

I've been sitting here to long thinkin' bout Milwaukee. I've been talking to long on my yellow walkie talkie. I'm talking to Mars you might think that I'm wacky. I know they'll come get me, come get me someday. I know they'll come get me and take me away. I know they'll come get me, come get me someday. If not tomorrow then maybe today.
