lyrics

I was lookin for a place to buy canned soup
when I thought I better make a baby to talk to
You said let's head down to Lute's Casino
Poor Bob, he's only got a few more days
His brain is beginning to decay
And his arms, oh his arms, they're all jello these days

But there in the window, a magazine
touched once or twice before me
There in the window a message all mine
It says, "This is how to stay alive."
This is how to stay alive.

Drink all your soup
Keep all your cans
Find a man or
Be a man
Drink all your soup
Keep all your cans
If you can
do what you can

See Julia in a sweater alone at the bar with a cough
See Jerry at the market, he's been taking time off
See Sandra, oh sweet Sandra, with a letter she signed by the mailbox
A letter she's been meaning to send
An end to an end
And end, oh let lay
Her heart, it's all jello these days

But there in the window, Melissa's daughter
She's wiser now, she's more than she bargained
There in the window, eyes right on me she sings
"This, this is all you need."
This, this is all you need.

Drink all your soup
Keep all your cans
Find a man and
Be a man
Drink all your soup
Keep all your cans
If you can
do what you can
If you can
do what you can
