Take The Skinheads Bowling

Camper Van Beethoven
 CFCF
   Every day I get up and pray to Jah   
 CFCF
   And he increases the number of ??? by exactly one   
 CFCF
   Everybody's coming home for lunch these days  
 CFCF
   Last night there were skinheads on my lawn  

(chorus)
 GFC
 Take the skinheads bowling, take them bowling (x2)

(verse 2)
Some people say that bowling alleys got big lanes
Some people say that bowling alleys all look the same
There's not a line that goes here that rhymes with anything
Had a dream last night but I forget what it was

(chorus)

(verse 3)
Had a dream last night about you my friend
Had a dream, I wanted to sleep next to plastic
Had a dream, I wanted to lick your knees
Had a dream, it was about nothing

(chorus x2)

A member of Camper came to our uke circle and led us in a sing-along of this song.  The line ...increase the clocks by exactly one."  That's the way he sang it and, hey, he was there during the birthing process of this classic tune.

I'm sorry, that should read ..."increase the number of clocks by exactly one."

I'm pretty sure that it's "clouds"... as in "praying to Jah", man
