Ain't this the good life, I think you would agree
Grillin' food outside, an escape from the rut for me
Watch the smoke rise, up into the skies I see
Sippin' a Rob Roy under a shady tree
Asked all my friends to come, folks I know, little Di, big fat Joe
Even cousin Lynn shows, she looks really fatter to me
To me

Mama, just grilled some ham
Back yard table has been spread
And the charcoal's glowing red
Mama, bring the burger buns
Hope it don't rain, the clouds look kind of gray
Mama ooooh, How much cole slaw did you buy?
Aunt Imogene's new dress looks so bizzarro
Grab a bun, grab a bun, there's some cold cuts on the platter

Hors d'eouvres, would you like some?
Aunt Liv you look devine
Would you like a glass of wine?
Chateau Rauzan-Segla, it's French Bordeaux
Or some Puerto Rican Rum, one hundred proof
Mama, ooooh (napkins in the wind blow)
I don't like to fry, I grill the fish, now lets start the corn to boil

I see my brother coming over in his van
Such a mooch, Such a mooch, but he brought us some mangos
Mosquitoes are biting, stop the kids from fighting
Cherry Jello (Cherry Jello)
Cherry Jello (Cherry Jello)
Cherry Jello in a bowl (where did it go?)
Yard's full of kid's toys, burned grass from dog pee
Hey kid next door boy, don't use profanity
Here comes my wife with a salad for me
Leafy greens, tomato, in the salad bowl
E. choli! oh, it's in the salad bowl (salad bowl)
E. choli! it's in the salad bowl (salad bowl)
E. choli! it's in the salad bowl (salad bowl)
In the salad bowl (salad bowl)
In the salad bowl (salad bowl)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Diarrhea, Diarrhea, Diarrhea gotta go
Don't feel so good, there's a devil in my gut, oh me, oh me, oh me!

So I tell all my guests "gotta go now, bye-bye"
Got the trots now it's off to the bathroom I fly
Oh baby, did you wash those greens baby?
Oh no this darn cramp, Oh no this darn cramp's so severe

Toilet bowl got splattered, anyone can see
Toilet bowl got splattered, Toilet bowl got splattered by me
Open up a window
(Sound of toilet flushing instead of gong)
