Fly In The Ointment

I was on my wall

Minding my own business

When a man walked up to me

And he say "hey don't fall",

"and anyways

What's a nice guy like you doing sitting on a wall?"

And i say

"i don't like flies in my ointment

And that's what you are

You'll make me late for my appointment

Late for my appointment with my best friend in the bar"

Well i was down on the ground

Minding my own business when a snail slid up to me

And he said "hey, slow down,"

"and anyways, you ain't got no business rushing around"

And i said

"stop acting like a fly in my ointment

Cause that's what you are

You'll make me late for my appointment

Late for my appointment with my best friend in the bar"

I was high in the sky

Minding my ouwn business when a jumbo jet flew by

And all the people inside

Staring out the window giving me the evil eye

And i said

"i feel like a fly in the ointment

And i don't know why

Please help me i'm late for my appointment

Late for my appointment with my best friend in the bar

He's waiting in the bar

He's waiting in the bar"
