Bathtub Gin

Phish

Brett is in the bathtub making soup for the ambassadors 

And I am in the hallway singing to the troubadours 

The kings are all lined up outside the gate 

And the autumn bells are ringing but they'll just have to wait 


Where is the joker? Have you seen him around 

With his three coned cap that he wears like a clown? 

Have you seen his stripped stockings and heard his sad tale 

About the kids under the carpet and the purple humpbacked whales? 


Here come the ambassadors, they show up one by one 

Brett is tasting all the soup to see if it is done 

Wendy's on the windowsill waiting to be let in 

And we're all in the bathtub now making bathtub gin 


The kings storm the hallway they've climbed up through the gate 

they didn't mean to be impolite but they just couldn't wait 

Here comes the joker with his silly grin 

He carries a martini made of bathtub gin 


Here comes the joker we all must laugh 

Cause we're all in this together, and we love to take a bath.
