The Dead Milkmen
Watching Scotty Die
[Verse 1]
I've got a kid, his name is Scott
He's going blind and his blood just will not clot
The doctors line in rows
To stick tubes up Scotty's nose

[Verse 2]
There is the field where Scotty used to play
Until Ortho Orange Number 42
Was dumped in it one day

[Chorus]
I think it's so funny
I laugh until I cry
Just me and God
Watching Scotty die
Just me and God
Watching Scotty die

[Verse 3]
The chemical plant across the street
Leaves off steam that colors our white sheets
It's been happening for years
Now I'm crying rainbow tears

[Verse 4]
One day, my dog went out to play
Instead of grey, he came back colored yellow
The chemical men said "Stay mellow, it happens all the time"
Now Scotty's skin is lime
[Chorus]
I think it's so funny
I laugh until I cry
Just me and God
Watching Scotty die
Just me and God
Watching Scotty die
