Pardon me, garcon, it seems there's something wrong

[Pre-Chorus]

You with your Terraplane and your hair like an Aeroplane

[Chorus]

Need a nickel for the Nickelodeon

Need a nickel for the Nickelodeon

Need a picture from my picture postcard rack

Also Mister Man, I want my money back

[Pre-Break]

You you're a chess game, you're my flower, I'm your shower of rain

[Break]

La La La La La La La La La La, La La La La La La La La La La

Pardon me, garcon, it seems there's something wrong

[Pre-Break]

You with your Cadillac, it's like a winged starbacked crystal shack

[Break]

La La La La La La La La La La, La La La La La La La La La La

You with your Terraplane and your hair like a (Mouth Plane Sounds)
