Tripod - The Hot Dog Man lyrics
The hot dog man is packing up he's putting all his sauces away Scrapes the onion grease into a cup to use again another day other hot dog men might re-use their cheese but never this hot dog man He whistles a tune and bobs his head while sweeping out floor of his van The hot dog man once tried a line in gelati and soft serve treats but they didn't last long in the baine-marie in amongst the steaming meats The sauce bottle nozzles clog up everyday he is always surprised by how much A friend once suggested the sachets but he prefers the personal touch The hot dog man The hot dog man How beautiful is the hot dog man hey? He knows what life is all about It's the simple things thats the lesson. The hot dog man attends the normal events such as concerts and football games has his regulars at the stadium he takes the time to learn all their names whilst he knows it's a professional relationship he always asks about their lives how are the kids, is your mum still well hey tell me when the baby arrives The hot dog man maintains his van he works on it meticulosy he'd have it done by a mechanic but who would take as much care as he The hot dog man drops his daughter off at ballet practice three times a week he jokingly asks "Am I taxi" she laughs and smiles and kisses his cheek The hot dog man You love the hot dog man (The hot dog man) In fact i could sing about the hot dog man all night in fact.. The hot dog man earns a modest amount his overheads are more than you'd think when you add up the cost of his "hobby" plus the wholesale price of the drinks What's with "hobby" Yon? The hot dog man has certain needs not all of which his wife can fulfil he also has his favourite TV shows the one he likes the most is "The Bill" They aren't the lyrics guys! The hot dog man knows his hardware has certain brands he tends prefers he's been fitting out his cellar but he's not at all a wine connisuer The hot dog man drives his hot dog van In circuits round the local reserve He drives slowly but not too slowly casual so as not to unnerve I dont like the hot dog man anymore! The hotdog man The hot dog man's a bad hot dog man isn't he? guys? The hot dog man What the f** is going on? The hot dog man has cool room with independent power supply has a table on wheels and a lightsource he performs his operations by (OPERATIONS!) The hot dog man's identity changes every now and again for a time he was a woman or at least he wore a woman's skin(NNNOOO!) If you listen hard in the dead of night is that a scratching sound you can hear we use the woird evil so liberally... STOP! STOP THE fu*kING SONG STOP! What are you doing to the hotdog man? What do you mean what have we done to him? It's a whole range of factors not just us It's a whole nature vs nurture issue he might have parental problems, maybe he's just evil we just dont know he doesn't have to be evil Why dont we make the hotdog man a nice hotdog man again Hey you know remember: The hot dog man is packing up He's twisting all the ties on the bun bags He puts the ice bucket back in the freezer Where he also keeps the human heads (NOOOOO!) C'mon he's a multi dimensional character C'mon Gatesy dont you think were all a hot dog man deep inside It about the complexity of human relationships... and knives
