When  I was little  someone pointed out  to me
Some  constellations  but the  big dipper's  all  I could see
That  brontasaurus  must have  stood a  thousand  miles high
That  brontasaurus  laying on  its side  up in  the sky
Bottoms  up and this  time
Won't  you let me be?
Bottled  up but this  time
Won't  you rescue me?
You  should have been  here last night and heard what the big dipper  said to me
Jack  thought it twice  and thought that that  that made  it true
Some  brains just work  that way
 that's what chemicals  can do
 He thought he'd have  a beer
 he  thought  he was alone
He  thought an Albertson's  stir fry
 dinner would  make  his apartment  a home
Bottoms  up and this  time
Won't  you let me be?
Bottled  up but this  time
Won't  you rescue me?
You  should have been  here last night and heard what the big dipper  said to me
 I thought I bored  me but
 I learned  to think  like you
 Now nothing bores  me
 that's that nothing  is thought  through
Bottoms  up and this  time
Won't  you let me be?
Bottled  up but this  time
Won't  you rescue me?
You  should have been  here last night and heard what the big dipper  said
