Songtexte Abominable Snowman in the Market - Jonathan Richman , The Modern Lovers

Well, look, see there's an abominable snowman in the supermarket
And apparently the housewives have never seen anything like that before
Hear the housewives complaining to the manager (oh, how disgusting)
"Get that snow-thing out of this store"

Abominable snowman in the market
That's right, you heard me right, gang
And the housewives, they all remarking
"It looks like a dirty marshmallow with fangs"

Well, there's an abominable snowman in the market
Now he's down by the peas and carrot
Abominable snowman in the market
And they cannot chase him away, what you sayin'?

Abominable snowman in the market, alright
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Abominable snowman in the market, oh my
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

See, there's an abominable snowman in the market
And the situation is grave
Well, the housewives hurt and confuse him
And I can't see him treated this way

Well, there's an abominable snowman in the market
And I think he's a real nice guy
I like the snowman, I wanna help him, but
I don't wanna see him hurt this way

Well, abominable snowman in the market, alright
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Well, there's an abominable snowman in the market
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Look, we have to talk to this abominable snowman man
And we have to say something that he can understand
That's right, there's abominable snowman in the market
And he's doin' better every day

I know it's helped him to have a more tolerant feeling
And I like to see him treated this way
Well, there's an abominable snowman in the market
And he's down by the peas and carrot

Abominable snowman in the market
And that is what I now say
I was talkin' about

Abominable snowman in the market, alright
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, abominable snowman in the market
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (me and Dave)

There's an abominable snowman in the market
Down by the peas and carrot
Abominable snowman in the market
He just arrived by plane yesterday

Well, there's an abominable snowman in the market
And the housewives never seen something like that before
Housewives treat him like a stranger
They want him away from the supermarket door, what you say 'bout

Abominable snowman in the market, alright
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Abominable snowman in the market, get it
