Biography

The Meat Puppets are an American rock band formed in January 1980, in Paradise Valley, Arizona. The group's classic lineup was [a=Curt Kirkwood] (guitar/vocals), his brother [a=Cris Kirkwood] (bass guitar), and [a=Derrick Bostrom] (drums). One of the more notable groups on the roster of [l=SST Records] (who released most of their early albums), the Meat Puppets could be broadly classified as punk rock, but like most of their SST peers, the Meat Puppets established their own unique style, blending punk with country and psychedelic rock, and featuring Curt's warbling vocals.

LYRICS

The man laid his hat on the table
hung his coat up on the wall
Sat down to dinner said as soon as I am able
I'll say something nice to you all
Then he took a deck from his pocket
spread 'em so I saw 'em all
Then he turned his back to me shuffled 'em and drew me
the card that said I never would fall

Oh Mary Lou won't you tell me what to do
I got a dollar on the corner and a laser in my shoe
If I don't get an answer gonna split myself in two

He spun 'till a ton was glistening
turned to me and gave me a smile
He said I'm leaving now but I want what you owe me
I'll be back in a little while

That was the last time I saw him
Hope I never see him again
I know it sounds funny but I owe him some money
and I really don't want him for a friend

Oh Mary Lou won't you tell me what to do
I got a dollar on the corner and a laser in my shoe
If I don't get an answer gonna split myself in two
