Dead Skunk Lyrics - Live At The Cactus Cafe - Loudon Wainwright Iii

Crossin' the highway late last night 

He shoulda looked left and he shoulda looked right 

He didn't see the station wagon car 

The skunk got squashed and there you are! 

You got yer 

Dead skunk in the middle of the road 

Dead skunk in the middle of the road 

You got yer dead skunk in the middle of the road 

Stinkin' to high Heaven! 

Take a whiff on me, that ain't no rose! 

Roll up yer window and hold yer nose 

You don't have to look and you don't have to see 

'Cause you can feel it in your olfactory 

You got yer 

Dead skunk in the middle of the road 

Dead skunk in the middle of the road 

You got yer dead skunk in the middle of the road 

Stinkin' to high Heaven! 

Yeah you got yer dead cat and you got yer dead dog 

On a moonlight night you got yer dead toad frog 

Got yer dead rabbit and yer dead raccoon 

The blood and the guts they're gonna make you swoon! 

You got yer 

Dead skunk in the middle of the road 

Dead skunk in the middle of the road 

You got yer dead skunk in the middle of the road 

Stinkin' to high Heaven! 

C'mon stink! 

You got it! 

It's dead, it's in the middle 

Dead skunk in the middle! 

Dead skunk in the middle of the road 

Stinkin' to high heaven! 

All over the road, technicolor man! 

Oh, you got pollution 

It's dead, it's in the middle 

And it's stinkin' to high, high Heaven!
