I finally got around to transcribing the new lyrics from the 2013 revamp of Morris' Nightmare!
Morris' Nightmare is my favorite Jimmy Buffett tune! It was severely underplayed (a few times in the 70s and 2013). By far one of his funniest songs!
(Right after the musical bridge)
You know up in the city
everybody's on their cell
nothing much to do
when it feels like winter fell
ice scape
but mainly hibernate
now we're checking in on mars
got a new trophy wife
honey loves to tan
has she seen the surgeon's knife
full blown
blown to silicone
so they built the biggest boat
the world has ever seen
put a fire in the hole
and turned it into a matrine!
shadies on the pool deck
never been to cozumel
towed to alabama
couldn't lose that fucking smell
dream trip
now they're all on the big shit ship!
down in the islands where the happy folk say
never to be better (?)
they're stuck in mobile bay
it's okay
it's okay
it's alright
it's alright
you gotta do what you wanna
do what you like!
