Fishy,

Boy, did you experience the worst of thread drift. Here's one of your requests.

Duct Tape Blues
by Joel Mabus

You say the world is going to pieces,
Things just fell apart,
You want to put things back together,
But you don't know where to start.
Well, I got your solution,
The stuff you need to use.
It's a thing called Duct Tape,
There ain't nothin' it can't do.

CHO:
I say the world is going to pieces,
What's a poor boy going to do?
I'm just holdin' things together.
Singin' the Duct Tape blues.

Duct Tape is the answer,
In a little silver roll.
It'll mend the wildest crack,
It can patch the deepest hole.
I put Duct Tape on my sneakers,
When they start to fall apart,
And since my baby left me,
I'm wearing Duct Tape on my heart. CHO:

Now, I'm goin' down to the Pentagon,
Gonna help my country out.
Tell them five star Generals,
What it's all about.
I'll show 'em my roll of Duct Tape,
And I'll explain what it can do.
I'll say it's only 99 thousand dollars,
This week's special just for you. CHO:

Sorry I took so long. I like this song, but it was not in my memory banks any longer. Finally found my file of old songs.

Enjoy the music.
