Two Lips - The Residents

Oh, we have to buy a tulip

Yes, we have to buy a tulip

Oh, we have to buy a tulip

So we’ll sell our home

And we’ll sell our clothes

And we’ll sell our shoes

Everything we own

We’ll sell to you

Well, my doctor bought a tulip

And my banker bought a tulip

And my lawyer bought a tulip

So I’ll buy one, too

Maybe I’ll buy ten

Maybe I’ll buy more

All my friends have scored

Tulips in galore

Yes!

We have to buy!

No!

We don’t know why!

Yes!

We’ll buy or die!

Yes!

We have to buy!

No!

We don’t know why!

Yes!

We’ll buy or die!

No!

We don’t know why

Yes!

We’ll buy or die!

Would you like to buy a tulip?

Would you like to buy a tulip?

Would you like to buy a tulip?

You can pick and choose

I have sold my wife

And my children, too

I have nothing but

Tulips to lose

No!

(Yes! We have to buy!

No!

We don’t know why!

Yes!

We’ll buy or die!)
