Come on!

Your Uncle Walter's going on and on

'Bout everything he's seen and done

The voice of 50 years experience

He's drunk, watching the television

You know, he's been around the world

Last night he flew to Baghdad in his magical armchair

With cigarettes and a six pack, yeah, he just got back

Now the spit's flying everywhere

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Your Uncle Walter's going on and on

Oh, you're back so late

Where did you go that you were gone so long?

How could you leave me here so long with Uncle Walter?

Yeah

Your Uncle Walter saw who fired the shots

He drove his chair in the cavalcade

He's flown from South Africa to countries where

They beat themselves on the backs with chains

Was a fleet of battleships and one reclining chair

Headed north on the Arabian sea

Now he's back to tell us what he and his oldest boy Blair

They're getting rich with their mail order scheme

Your Uncle Walter's going on and on

We're so glad you're home

Where did you go that you were gone so long?

How could you leave me here so long with Uncle Walter?

Your Uncle Walter told me everything he'd do if he was president

No, what a perfect world this world would be if he was president now

But he's not!

And he sees the children smoking pot

He knows that, in a moment, they'll be shooting up heroin

Teardrops in his armchair

A 50 minute lecture, tobacco juice rolling down his chin

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Your Uncle Walter's going on and on

You're back so late

Where did you go that you were gone so long?

How could you leave me here so long with Uncle Walter?

Come on!
