Lyrics

You may think my hat is funny, but I don't
I'm the Grand Wazoo
Keeper of the mystic scroll
And roll of parchment from the lodge

And I'm a Veteran

Every day on coffee break at the hardware store,
I tell Fred
What to expect because we play pranks during the... initiation

I'm the Grand Wazoo

I'm the Grand Wazoo

I'm the Grand Wazoo, from the hardware store
Fuck you if you don't like my hat
