Sonic Bummer (Parsons)


I called the big man at the field
And I told him what he'd done
He laughed and said 'go back to bed
My boys just having fun
My boys just having fun'

I said 'first you killed my chickens
Then you wiped out all my sheep'
He said 'Don't you know we're protecting you
Now go on back to sleep'
He said 'Go on back to sleep'

Sonic booms they killed my chicken
A sonic boom well, it treed my cow
Sonic booms bust my dishes
Them jets are bound to get me now
Them jets are bound to get me now

So if you were yelled at as a boy
For slamming your screen door
And swore that you'd get back at mom
If it took ten years or more
If it took ten years or more

Well, you can join the men that fly at night
And protect us while we sleep
You can make a boom that'll kill your mom
And she'll never make a peep
No, she'll never make a peep

A sonic boom shocked my horses
Sonic boom squashed my goats
Sonic boom'll fry your brain
Until you want to slit your throat
Until you want to slit your throat

A sonic boom shocked my horses
Sonic boom squashed my goats
Sonic boom'll fry your brain
Until you want to slit your throat
Until you want to slit your throat
