Put A Lid On It - Squirrel Nut Zippers

Put a lid on it

What’s that you say?

Put a lid on it

Oh man, no way

Put a lid down on it, and everything will be all right

Put a lid on it

Don’t hand me that

Put a lid on it

I’m all right, Jack

Put a lid down on it, before somebody starts a fight

Say, every time I turn it loose you cats Come down and cook my goose

When I start I just can’t stop

But if you keep this up you’re gonna blow your top!

Put a lid on it

Too late this time

Put a lid on it

I’ve got to get what’s mine

Put a lid down on it, and everything will be all right

Well, grab your drink and clear a space I think it’s time to torch this place

Now the girl’s in overdrive

But some of your pals want to stay alive!

I’ll put a lid on it

I’ll put a lid down on it

Save it for another night
