Hen's Teeth And Goofa Dust Lyrics — The Dead Milkmen

Bring me some hen's teeth and some goofa dust
A one-eyed dog that I can trust
A coffin nail that's covered in rust
I need some hen's teeth and some goofa dust

Because I've got some chores
Before I can settle the score

Bring me the knot from a hangman's noose
The tailfeathers of an old blind goose
The toenails of Rabbit the Bruce
I need the knot from a hangman's noose

Because I've got some chores
Before I can settle the score

I need some wolfsbane and some tannis root
The eyelids of a lonesome newt
A cobra's tongue and a brand new suit
I need some wolfsbane and some tannis root

I need some black sand and some belladonna
A good review from a film with Madonna
A parking ticket from a town in Botswana
I need some black sand and some belladonna

Because I've got some chores
Before I can settle the score
Look back in anger
That's not your lawn tiger
Well, I've got some chores
Before I can settle the score

Bring me some hen's teeth and some goofa dust
A one-eyed dog that I can trust
A coffin nail that's covered in rust
I need some hen's teeth and some goofa dust

Bring me the knot from a hangman's noose
The tailfeathers from an old blind goose
The toenails of Rabbit the Bruce
I need the knot from a hangman's noose
