Zombie Squirrel

I was driving home, one strange Halloween - and then like a dream

Took a turn, by the old walnut tree - and there it was

In front of me - much too late - too slow down

Tell me why did the squirrel - cross the road - with that nut - in it's mouth

Well I veered to the right - and that squirrel dodged right too

Veered to the left - but that squirrel.. did not know.. what to do

Then I hit - felt the bump - heard the sound

People always told me - be careful out when you drive

And don't go around - running - those - squirrels - down

And mother always told me - put on clean underwear

Then that squirrel jumped up on my car - and gave me quite a scare

(oh mama)

Zombie squirrel you got run over

Now you are flat - and say that - I took your nut

But - my door - is - going to stay shut

You say that I took your nut - but my door is going to stay shut

(silly squirreley giggle-chatters)

Around the block - and - through - the car wash

You held my wiper blade

But I couldn't stand - your nutty squirrel demands

(For) - al.monds  and  pe.cans

Cause I crushed - the walnut - you had found

Look, I a-pol-o-gise

For your truly dubious demise

and I (sym-path-ize) sym-path-ize (yeah)

But I don't have your nut!

Gas tank nearing empty - I knew what had to be

Turned around - traveled back - crashed into that tree!

And the nuts began a-falling

From the sky but not in time (oh)

For I crushed - the walnut - you had found

eee eee nutty nut yummy yummy nut nut (in squirrely voice)

People always told me to pack along some spare cashews

In case a zombie squirrel ever came around

But that squirrel came chatty closer

In that moment, then I knew

That there was nothing I could do

Now it wanted macaroons

Nut nutty cookie please (in squirrely voice)

Zombie squirrel you got run over.  Zombie squirrel you got run over

You say that I took your nut

Zombie squirrel you got run over.  Zombie squirrel you got run over

You say that I took your nut - but my door is going to stay shut
