about

Written by Andy Furgeson/Red Yarn

lyrics

Last night I had the strangest dream
Believed I could fix most everything
So I called up my good friends
Said, “Come down right away”
Turned out to be a big mistake

Things started off okay
Everyone was dancin, feelin great
All it took was an angry word
Then the good times lost their hold
That’s when we lost control

Bill started kickin his hind legs
His hoof nearly caught Jim Dog in the head
Jim barked and bore his teeth
At the hepcat by his side
You can bet the mice got terrorized

With rodents skitterin around
Pig lost his foothold and fell down
Smack dab on rooster
Who crowed in goose’s ear
Goose started flappin round in fear

Sheep were creepin backward
Knocked a candle on a bale of wool
The sparks surprised the cow
Who jumped and bumped into the bull
Bull he rammed the rubble pile
Old boards and rubber tires

And now the barn’s on fire
Get out, the barn’s on fire
Help the cat down from the hayloft
Free the horse from the barbed wire
Good lord, the barn’s on fire
Good lord, the barn’s on fire

You don’t know the good in someone’s heart
Till the situation’s dire
Like when the barn caught fire
