Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singing

Chorus:
Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door
There's a giant doing cartwheels
A statue wearing high heels
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
A dinosaur Victrola listening to Buck Owens

Chorus

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band
Won't you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo doo
Wond'rous apparition provided by magician

Chorus

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band
Won't you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo doo
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows

Chorus

Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows

Chorus
