All the night it`s bli-bli-bli
`N blop-blop-blop `n drip, drip, drip
I`m turnin` the faucet off
Pretty uptight from bli-bli-bli
`N blop-blop-blop, I hate this trip
I`m turnin` the faucet off
That faucet`s drippin`
Turnin` the faucet off
Tryin` t`sleep, I need my rest
But there`s no rest f`me, I guess
I`m turnin` the faucet off
(Repeat Top)
My mind is flippin`
Turnin` the faucet off
I`m tryin` my best to sleep
I`m tryin` without success
I tell y` it just ain`t fair a faucet
Measures in this mess
That`s it, I guess!
Every night I gotta git up in the middle of the gol`durn night
An` it`s colder`n a Swedish well-digger`s behin`
But I gotta do it
Otherwise I`m outta` m`min. stone crazy
Stop the faucet from drippin`
`N drivin y`nuts - stone nuts
It`s drivin` you crazy
One more drip an` you`ll scream
No stuff, you can look him
An` tell he has enough
Whoa-oh, lemme tell y`really
It`s rough
Talkin` `bout them blee blop blues
I`m hip to that drip goofin` my sleep
I`m so tired o`gittin` up in the night
What a catastratrose
Pride`s got me feelin` I`m boun`t`
Behave like an oaf
I`ll git me a hammer - Bam!
Quite the difference in the way
The faucet soun`s now
I`m gonna go bam-bam-bam-bam
Bam-bam-bam on that faucet
Damn that faucet for the stupid ol`
Drip that it is I tell y`
I really am sick o`that drip
Maybe the plumber man`s
Got him a better, prettier tip
About stoppin` that drip
But as f`now
Background:
When you be deep within y`nightly nap
An` nothin worser than a drippin` tap
You try t`lay there an` preten` you deaf
But soon y` fin`ly know there ain` nothin` left
That you jus` cannot stand it anymore
You`re hip
Drip drip drip drip
An` so y`git up an` you`re half asleep
You`re so disgusted that`cha wanna weep
You bump your knee while tryin` t`find the lamp
Your throat is dried up and y`feelin` a cramp
You can`t feel dum`r an` you`d like t`kill the plum`er
You envy children in summer camp
But as for now
But as for now
The drippin` soun`
The drippin` soun`
Has got me so I`m `bout t`tear the plumin` down
I`m `bout t`tear the plumin` down I`m talkin` down
Y`gotta stop
Y`gotta stop
The constant seep
The constant seep
Because it makes it real impossible t`sleep
Real impossible t`sleep, I`m talkin` sleep
Your plum`er goofed
So face the fact
Y` gotta use
A lot o`tact
Your plumber really gotta` straighten
Up his act
Next time you`re li`ble to crack
Folks with leaky faucets
Think o`wakin` up millions o`times
T`stop the faucet drippin`
Part o`the trouble o`livin` with plumbin`
Is the dues a fella always pays
Adoptin` fancy citified ways
That`s what`cha git f`livin in the city
Whenever a nature lover hears your tale
You ain` gonna git lots o`pity
Dig - when y`r bothered by the blee bop blues
Dig this - turn the faucet off`n you`ll stop blues
Then dig this - you won`t have t`sing th`
Blee bop blues
When pipes`re drippin` nerves`re strainin`
People jus` can`t help complainin`
Everybody really c`n dig that
Stuff that pipe
End this endless incredible gripe
End this endless gripe
That`s them dues` - Blee blop blues
Yeah - - - - - - -
