Futz Said Julie lyrics

There we stood on a dark and isolated planetoid
Shivering like a San Andreas windowpane,
Suddenly looking up and seeing for the first time
The high suspended moon.

Vain attempts with rocks to dislodge the thing
Failed like spring-loaded boots and cowboy lassooing.
Suddenly we heard Julie for the very first time
And her voice was warm as June.

She said, `What you need is a rocket
But a rocket`s not an easy thing to make.`
`We got one,` we said.
`It`s too low on gas
To get three feet
Above the grass.`

And Julie said `Futz.`
`Futz,` said Julie,
`Futz around until my return.`
The definition of `futz` was something we had yet to learn,
But we tried to do it anyway, anyway,
`Cause Julie, we`ll do anything you say.

We paroozed our ramshackle rocketship.(da da da da)
We observed its myriad requirements.
We saw it needed a stronger hull and electrical boost
And a year`s worth of supplies.

Well the news stretched out like an octopus (da da da da)
And in time attracted a following,
A following made of freaks and geeks of the very best kind
To enable us to fly.

What we had was a rocket when we finished,
But a rocket`s incomplete
With empty tanks.
It`s too low on gas
To get three feet
Above the grass.

And Julie said `Futz.`
`Futz,` said Julie,
`Futz around until my return.`
The definition of `futz` was something we had yet to learn,
But we tried to do it anyway, anyway,
`Cause Julie, we`ll do anything you say.

Moms! Dads! People that we`ve never seen,
People that we have and ones we never hang around:
With no battalion every general stands alone.
Moms! Dads! People that we`ve never seen,
People that we have and ones we never hang around:
With no battalion every general stands alone.

Be strong - honest - try and keep your nose clean
Julie`s coming back with gasoline, yeah!

Yeah! And Julie said `Futz.`
`Futz,` said Julie,
`Futz around until my return.`
The definition of `futz` was something we had yet to learn,
But we tried to do it anyway, anyway,
`Cause Julie, we`ll do anything you say.

And Julie said `Futz.`
`Futz,` said Julie,
`Futz around until my return.`
The definition of `futz` was something we had yet to learn,
But we tried to do it anyway, anyway,
`Cause Julie, we`ll do anything you say.
But we tried to do it anyway, anyway,
`Cause Julie, we`ll do anything you say.
