I got rid of my jackets and coats
I threw out all of my pants
I got sick of my stinking clothes
I had to get rid of them
I'm not yet considering replacing them
I'm only glad to be rid of them
and rest a while
Rest a while
( No Guitar )
I lay out in the sun too long
and burned off all of my skin
I felt so dizzy, I got into the car
and got into an accident
Out of the burning wreckage I fell
wanting only to lay there I fell
and Rest a while
Rest a while
Rest a while
I became friendly with Ruy Lopez
the author of works on chess
Ruy said you're incorrect
he cut me off and acted mad
He won't even talk to me now
but I don't care cos I'm sick of that guy
and I need to
Rest a while
Rest a while
Rest a while
Rest a while
