The Pen Songtext
von Telethon

I′d known my neighbor Greg for years
We'd talk about the Rangers and have a few beers
He liked my garage
I liked his garage

But Greg didn′t sleep much
I could see, so eventually, I intervened
And he said, Listen carefully
You see, I built this new contraption
Lets you punch in any date you want to go to
And the room goes white, and you're there

Well, Greg, sweet friend, on August 8th, 2010
I lost a jet blue ballpoint pen I loved much more than all of my other pens
I feel like this could be my opening


Now, Greg shot straight
He never lied to me
The room went white, and suddenly
The TV showed a commercial for Couples Retreat
Coming soon to DVD

I crawl outside and sniff around the block
To find my jet blue ballpoint pen
Which, I guess, erased my wife and my kid

Live from the Everglades
I tend to an airboat
Perform all its maintenance
It's no Zihuatanejo, but I can′t complain
Though often I do
Yes, I do
The humidity gets to me
Get lonely when I drink
And that pen′s out of ink

And Greg, if you're out there
Come find me
I have an idea
I think
