It was a Friday I saw a movie but it wasn't very long, so I snuck into another one Employees caught me, they threw me out into the mall all in all, it was pretty fun. But then it happened: I bumped into a random guy, he said "excuse me" and he tried to walk away. (Walk away) But I had just had a psychic vision, I said "Sir, I don't know why, but I know your name", I said: I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know your name is... Your name is BOB! Your name is Bob Your name is Bob, I know The guy said "Sorry, my name is Fred" and then he slowly walked away, I never saw that guy again (again). Went back to my house Went to my room to feed my fish, which was lying on its back So I gave it to the cat When he was finished, I took the bones away But right before I reached the garbage something happened in my brain Well I had just had a psychic vision, I said "Cat, I don't know why, but I know your name" I said: I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know your name is... Your name is BOB! Your name is Bob Your name is Bob, I know The cat said nothing. And then threw up on to my freshly shampooed carpet, I rolled my eyes and walked outside It started raining, I ran for shelter in an alleyway that smelled as if an elephant had died There was a box there, I looked inside to see a homeless man, dresses in rags, bearded and insane And suddenly I had a psychic vision, I said "Sir I don't know why, but I know your name" I said I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know, I know your name I know, I know your name is... Your name is BOB! Your name is Bob Your name is Bob, I know (instrumental) (played reverse in the instrumental: Spongebob Squarepants Bob Dylan Bob Ross Bob Hoffman Bob Saget Bob Marley) The homeless man stared He looked a bit scared He asked me how I knew his name, I couldn't say And it was awkward He fell asleep, and I walked back home in the rain (in the rain) But then it happened Another vision came to me Another psychic idea from my dreams I knew I had to burn down the supermarket to achieve world peace So I did.
