Dancing cans of Strange Soup can be Yours for Free if you Call now.
Operators standing by.
Waiting to get to know you.
The way you talk when you think nobody can hear you.
The way you think when you swear you left your brain somewhere.
Dancing cans of Strange Soup
can get you through a viscious day.
Depends on what lives in them, I guess.
Government experts standing in line to let you know the truth.
Down the interstate where God and the Devil run a pretty fair cafe.
Operators on pogo-sticks,
bouncing up and down.
What happened to the equilibrium?
Call now. Call in any language you want.
We got all the speakers here.
They went to the best schools.
They all made movies when movies meant something.
Dancing Cans of Strange Soup
are coming now,
and you will have to cook them up
without adding water
because all the water
it sort of went dry.
