i saw it advertised one day
Bear mountain picnic was comin' my way
Come along 'n' take a trip
We'll bring you up there on a ship
Bring the wife and kids
Bring the whole family
Yippee!
Well
I run right down 'n' bought a ticket
To this bear mountain picnic
But little did i realize
I was in for a picnic surprise
Had nothin' to do with mountains
I didn't even come close to a bear
Took the wife 'n' kids down to the pier
Six thousand people there
Everybody had ticket for the trip
Oh well i said
It's a pretty big ship
Besides
Anyway
The more the merrier
Well
We all got on 'n' what d'ya think
That big old boat started t' sink
More people kept a-pilin' on
That old ship was a-slowly goin' down
funny way t' start a picnic
Well
I soon lost track of m' kids 'n' wife
So many people there i never saw in m' life
That old ship sinkin' down in the water
Six thousand people tryin' t' kill each other
Dogs a-barkin'
Cats a-meowin'
Women screamin'
fists a-flyin'
Babies cryin'
Cops a-comin'
Me a-runnin'
Maybe we just better call off the picnic
I got shoved down 'n' pushed around
All i could hear there was a screamin' sound
Don't remember one thing more
Just remember walkin' up on a little shore
Head busted
Stomach cracked
feet splintered
I was bald
Naked
Quite lucky to be alive though
feelin' like i climbed outa m' casket
I grabbed back hold of m' picnic basket
Took the wife 'n' kids 'n' started home
Wishin' i'd never got up that morn
Now
I don't care just what you do
If you wanta have a picnic
That's up t' you
But don't tell me about it
I don't wanta hear it
'cause
See
I
