Moses come ridin' up on a quasar His spurs were jingling, the door was ajar His buckle was silver, his manner was bold And I asked him to come in out of the cold His brain was boiling, his reason was spent He said: If nothing is borrowed, then nothing was lent I asked him for mercy, he gave me a gun Said: Now 'n' again these things just got to be done Abraham and Isaac Sitting on a fence You'd get right to work If you had any sense Y'know the one thing we need Is a left-hand monkey wrench Gideon come in with his eyes on the floor Says: Y'ain't got a hinge, you can't close the door Moses stood up a full six-foot-ten Says: You can't close the door when the wall's caved in I asked him for water, he poured me some wine We finished the bottle, then broke into mine You get what you come for, you're ready to go It's one in ten thousand just come for the show Abraham and Isaac Digging on a well Mama come quick With the water witch spell Cool clear water Where you can't never tell Abraham and Isaac sitting on a fence You'd get right to work if you had any sense You know the one thing we need is a left-hand monkey wrench
