Ballad Of Skip Wiley by Jimmy Buffett


He's a man on a mission

Wild as a ricochet

Picture if you can when the Everglades ran

From the Gulf Coast to Biscayne Bay

 

He's gonna give it back to the gators

Lock the tourists up in theme parks and zoos

He says "Join me for lunch at the reptile's brunch

Where the barometer soup is you"

 

He's crazy and dangerous

But who else can you trust

He's the outlaw in all of us

The environmental terrorist

 

You can mess with that mouse in Orlando

Jilt a tourist in St. Augustine

You can shoplift all day at Blockbuster

But you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

No you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

 

That's unthinkable in the state of Florida

What would the Chamber of Commerce say

This man is sick

Yeah

There were crimes of epic proportions

All part of Skip Wiley's crusade

Tourists were cackin' and tourists were packin'

While he and Skink cooled their heels in the shade

 

Then came the citrus sensation

"Welcome to the revolution" He said

With a pirates persona he snatched the gridiron Madonna

And the day grovers called for his head

 

He's crazy and dangerous

But who else can you trust

He's the outlaw in all of us

The environmental terrorist

 

You can mess with that mouse in Orlando

Jilt a tourist in St. Augustine

You can rag on the Miami Dolphins

But you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

No you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

No no you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

 

Well Skip's caper it kinda backfired

Got the orange juice barons rather upset

In the light of bad moves these manhunts ensued

Skip easily slipped through the net

 

He was last seen atop of a mangrove

Perched like a wounded osprey

He was not meant to last he belongs to the past

And I hope he gets there one day

 

He's crazy and dangerous

But who else can you trust

He's the outlaw in all of us

The environmental terrorist

 

You can mess with that mouse in Orlando

Jilt a tourist in St. Augustine

You can shoplift your days at Blockbuster

But you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

No you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

No you can't steal the Orange Bowl Queen

That's right
