Power Tools by Ray Stevens
Well, some folks say that grown-up men are still just little boys
But really, the only difference, is the price of our toys
We go from macho symbols, like guns and runnin' shoes
Pickup truck, huntin' ducks, and [**Vroom!**] Power Tools!
(Chorus)
Power Tools [(Power Tools)]
Power Tools [(Power Tools)]
Yeah, just plug 'em in the wall and think of all you can do!
You can plant a garden, fix your car
Build a house, if you want to
If you got the proper power tools [(Power Tools)]
(Spoken)
Hello, Emergency Room?
Yeah, I just fired up my new gas-powered weed whacker there
And somehow or another it got caught in the hammer loop of my Big Smith overalls
Yeah, before I could get her set down she plumb screwed me about three foot in the front lawn there!
Yeah, my wife hollered out the front door, "Hey, Shorty! While you're down there how 'bout checkin' the fescue for aiphids"
Huh! She's a real comedienne, that woman! Hardy Har Har!
Well, some folks say that macho men use tools to compensate
For a decline in virility, now I thought about that and wait!
There may be some validity in what those people say
But in my case it's the only way I get to go outside and play!
[**Udden Udden! Vroom!] Boy I love this stuff!
(Chorus)
