lyrics

I've got a sack of marbles
It's supposed to be my wife
Now you sit there while I'm up here
Singing about my life

I was born on a Saturday
And it was really great
But it was weird cause I had a beard
And I was born inside of a cake

My father worked a carwash
It was quite a bore
He told me to avoid my mom
Because she was a whore

I had eight brothers and sisters
And we had a pet bird
It flew out of the window
Got hit by a bus
And landed in some turd

My life has been such a mess
I don't know what to say
My wife and I were happy
But she died just yesterday

I bought a sack of marbles
And I cried I'm pretty sure
A tear fell on those balls
And it reminded me of her

So that is why I carry marbles
Everywhere I got
And if you had your ticket stamped
And you got your ticket back from the person who stamped it
And you walked down the aisle
And you found your seat
And you said "I'm sitting over there where that fat guy's NOT sitting"
And you went to the concession stand
And you got your popcorn and drinks
And you're completely ready
Then I hope you enjoy the show
"My Lovely Sack Of Marbles"
