lyrics

Wet Under the Ears

Can you wash rugs forever
Complain about your life
Make a poor decision
Afford a poor wife

If this is your life
You better get a knife
It's a hard way to exist
And a terribly tragic price

Hank is a labourer
He doesn’t have much choice
His heart is made of gold
But his car ain’t no Royce

And he someday dreams of being a singer
But he doesn’t have a voice
Does being wet under the ears
Mean he will always be moist

He’s a little wet under the ears
Afraid of all his fears
Works way too hard
And drinks too many beers

He’s knows nothings free
Still he prays for some luck
And he’ll never own a Royce
But maybe someday own a truck

He’s caught up washing rugs for rich guys
It’s run him in the muck
And he’ll never have a luck
A truck and for that matter even a buck

He’s a little wet under the ears
Afraid of all his fears
Works way too hard
And drinks too many beers
Yeah Yeah Yeah kick it

He’s a little wet under the ears
Afraid of all his fears
Works way too hard
And drinks too many beers
Yeah Yeah Yeah
He’s a little wet under the ears
Afraid of all his fears
Works way too hard
And drinks too many beers
Yeah Yeah Yeah
