Battery Man, Chew

Lyrics

[Intro] Chew, you got that hood up again? How long can one battery take? [Verse 1] You rolled that truck beside the shed Said, “Give me ten, I’ll be right back” A socket set, a rag, a wrench Now lunchtime’s gone and so’s the jack You lean in close, then step away You study every rusty screw That old truck hasn’t moved an inch But we’ve all been waiting on you [Pre-Chorus] You said the cables looked all right You said the terminals need a clean The whole block’s heard your latest plan And nobody knows what that can mean [Chorus] Battery Man, Chew, what’s the hold-up? That truck’s still parked where you left it before Battery Man, Chew, come on, show us One little change and we’re out the door Turn it over, turn it over, let the engine say go Battery Man, Chew, how slow can you go? [Verse 2] You found the right one at the parts store You brought it home like a trophy prize Then took one call, then checked the fit Then wiped your hands and checked it twice The neighbors bring you lemonade The kids have learned your every move You say, “I’m nearly finished now” That was a whole afternoon ago [Pre-Chorus] You found the clamp, you found the key You’ve got the new one in your hand We’re all prepared to celebrate The moment that you make a plan [Chorus] Battery Man, Chew, what’s the hold-up? That truck’s still parked where you left it before Battery Man, Chew, come on, show us One little change and we’re out the door Turn it over, turn it over, let the engine say go Battery Man, Chew, how slow can you go? [Bridge] Lefty loose, righty tight You’ve been out here half the night One more turn, connect the lead Chew, that truck is all you need [Breakdown] Chew! (Battery Man!) Chew! (Get that truck to run!) Chew! (Battery Man!) We’re still waiting, having fun! [Final Chorus] Battery Man, Chew, you got it started! That old truck’s rumbling out by the door Battery Man, Chew, the whole gang cheered it One little change took a little bit more Turn it over, turn it over, now the engine says go Battery Man, Chew, you finally stole the show [Outro] Chew, don’t park it too far away We might need another battery someday
