Lyrics:

Rip van ruben

Youve been asleep for a hundred seconds

Now the whole world has changed

Theres no home on the range

For rip van ruben



Youve been asleep for a hundred minutes

Now youve woke and shes gone

All alone in a dark new dawn

Sits rip van ruben



Dont let it get you down

Hop on a tram and go up town

Watch a silent film

See the biplanes fly bye bye



Everything new and upside down

Pinching yourself through your dressing gown

Wont bring her back

But your bruise is real and black



Jump into bed and dream her back where she was

Dream youre frank l. richards and this is the great land of oz

When your alarm clock goes off

You will find that she has too!



Rip van ruben

Youve been asleep for a hundred seconds

Now your whole worlds turned round

And the house makes an empty sound for

Rip van ruben



Dont let it freak you out

Youll find another girl no doubt

And someday soon

Maybe man will reach the moon



Jump into bed and dream her back where she belongs

Dream youre fu manchu and shes a slave to your tongs

When all the past evaporates

You will find that she has too



Rip van ruben

Youve been asleep for a hundred seconds

Now youve woke and shes gone

Instant desserts just for one

Rip van ruben
