lyrics

I met Mary Ann in the meat department
Of a grocery store
I hid behind a rack of lamb
And shouted her name
She was a vegetarian going insane

Me and Mary Ann know well.

She slept in a coffin to overcome
Her fear of death
Looming dreams laugh in the dark
Wondering why it’s the way it is

Me and Mary Ann know well.

It seems like a long time ago
Now she’s far away and living in Japan
Teaching English to all these kids
And it makes me laugh just thinking
What will they learn? What will they learn?

Me and Mary Ann know well.
