Lyrics
Flashing lots of cash and spending lots-o-loot
He’s sitting at the bar then he’s sittin’ at the booth
Across the dance floor he does scoot
He’s the skinny sweaty man in the green suit

The caboose that could he goes toot, toot
Been known to gag and sometimes puke
A very good friend of Granny Goose
He’s the skinny sweaty man in the green suit

Skinny sweaty man in the green suit

He’s half man and half cartoon
But good buddy, don’t be confused
He’s full blooded looney tune
He’s the skinny sweaty man in the green suit

Face to face with the man in the moon
His family doctor is Doctor Seuss
If you catch him in your soup, please don't shoot
He's the skinny sweaty man in the green suit

Skinny sweaty man in the green suit

He was new in town
A free wheeling clown
A very funny young duke hanging under the roof
Of a place in time, united sound

He’ll play a little guitar, sing a few blues
He’s the kind-a-guy that you can’t refuse
Despite the fact that he’s no brute
He’s the skinny sweaty man in the green suit

Strike the magic groove make him jerk and move
Like an eight legged freak in snake skin boots
Coming soon to a theatre near you
He’s the skinny sweaty man in the green suit

Skinny sweaty man in the green suit
