Just got home from Illinois
Lock the front door, oh boy
Got to sit down
Take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in
Pretty soon I'm singing
Doo doo doo
Looking out my back door
There's a giant doing cartwheels
A statue wearing high heels
Look at all the happy creatures
Dancing on the lawn
A dinosaur Victrola
Listening to Buck Owens
Doo doo doo
Looking out my back door
Tambourines and elephants
Are playing in the band
Won't you take a ride
On the flying spoon?
Doo doo doo
Wonderous apparition
Provided by magician
Doo doo doo
Looking out my back door
Tambourines and elephants
Are playing in the band
Won't you take a ride
On the flying spoon?
Doo doo doo
Bother me tomorrow
Today I'll buy no sorrows
Doo doo doo
Looking out my back door
Forward troubles Illinois
Lock the front door, oh boy
Look at all the happy creatures
Dancing on the lawn
Bother me tomorrow
Today I'll buy no sorrows
Doo doo doo
Looking out my back door
