The Grass Is Greener (pop's Drunken Confession) Lyrics - Happy Planet - Wall Of Voodoo

Hey-ho, Daddy's home! 

Heeeerrrreeee's Johnny!!! 

Where did everybody go??!! 

Goodbye Chicago, 

goodbye Miami skies, 

"ground control to Major Tom, 

my soul been psychodelisized..." 

They say the grass is greener 

on the other side of the fence 

and the meat is sweeter, 

it takes two to do the dance. 

Man, the girl is a dream! 

I ain't seen one like that since... 

They say the grass is greener 

on the other side of the fence. 

Well, the girl from New York 

digs Peter Tork and the girls 

from Milwaukee do the Walkie-Talkie. 

Cheerleaders in Atlanta do the 

boom-shagga-lagga, shouting 

"V-I-C-T-O-R-Y!!!" 

They walk and they walk and 

they talk and they talk and 

theywalkandtheywalkandthey 

talkandtheytalkandtheywalkand 

theywalkandtheytalkandtheytalk 

all night to get it right, but inside 

They say the grass is greener 

on the other side of the fence 

and the meat is sweeter, 

it takes two to do the dance. 

Man, the girl is a dream! 

I ain't seen one like that since... 

They say the grass is greener 

on the other side of the fence 

on the other side of the fence 

on the other side of the fence 

Jimmy's dad says 

"son, there's a small hotel, 

two high on Ten High 

and Chantilly. Man! I love the 

smell of another man's life. 

I love the smell of another man's wife. 

Strike while the iron's hot. 

I know it's wrong, but I can't stop. 

I love your mom, but I'm a bum and 

hey, c'mon..." 

They say the grass is greener 

on the other side of the fence 

and the meat is sweeter, 

it takes two to do the dance. 

Man, the girl is a dream! 

I ain't seen one like that since...
