I woke up in a strange room I'd never seen before Weird paintings on the walls, mirrors on the ceilings I bolted for the door Lookin' for my rent-a-car, was the Cordoba blue or red? Tryin' to remember where I put the keys Tryin' to remember what I said I pushed the fool button My night went haywire I pushed the fool button Set my brain on fire I was sittin' in the corner of a very laid-back bar A little three-piece band playin' on the stand Not knowin' what lay in store In a flash, a man with a hat and a harmonica stormed the stage The crowd went berserk, the band said, "What a jerk" As he went into a blues rampage It was a fool palace Double-knit on parade They pushed the fool button As the skinny boy played and played Push it, push it, push it Try to make a point of protectin' the innocent But none of them can be found It can happen any time, happen any place It can happen in your own home town If you don't believe my words Or think my story's true Get a bottle of rum and a Eskatrol And watch the same thing happen to you We'll push the fool button I'll meet you in the bar We'll push the fool button Where everyone's a star Jimmy pushed the fool button He pushed it like a fool, Bubba Pushin' like a fool Pushed the button like a fool Pushed the fool button Pushed it like a fool Pushed the button like a fool
