Especially In Michigan Songtext / Lyric

Life is my friend

Rake it up to take it in

Wrap me in your cinnamon

Especially in Michigan

...well, I could be your friend



White clouds, I'm in

A mitten full of fisherman

C'mon Huckleberry Finn

Show me how to make her grin

...well I'm in Michigan



Cry me a future

Where the revelations run amok

Ladies and gentlemen

Lions and tigers come running

Just to steal your luck



(A rainy Lithuanian

Who's dancing as an Indian

Painted in my tiger skin

Especially in Michigan)






Double chins and bowling pins

Unholy Presbyterians

Land is full of medicine

I find it when I'm slipping in

...all into Michigan



(The tainted new librarian

Who fainted when she tucked you in

Let's float away like zeppelins

On stoic gusts of Northern wind)



Cry me a future

Where the revelations run amok

Ladies and gentlemen

Lions and tigers come running

Just to steal your luck



Out on the farm we'll be

Swimming with the mother duck

Deep in the mitten where

Lions and tigers come running

Just to steal your luck



Life is my friend

Underwater violins

Order now from Ho Chi Min

A porcelain that comes in twins

...when I'm in Michigan



(Throw me in the looney bin

'Cause I can take it on the chin

The cleavage of your pillow skin

Is moving like a violin)



Cry me a future

Where the revelations run amok

Ladies and gentlemen

Lions and tigers come running

Just to steal your luck

Out on the farm we'll be

Swimming with the mother duck

Deep in the mitten where

Lions and tigers come running

Just to steal your luck
