Fluffhead

Phish · Hampton/winston-Salem '97 [2011]

Fluffhead was a man

With a horrible disease

Could not find no cure

Wont'cha help him if you please

Fluff came to the door

Asking me for change

His eyes were clear and pure

But his mind was so deranged



Fluffhead

Fluffhead



Fluff went to a banker

Asking for some bills

The banker said

"I aint got that,

But I sure got some powerful pills"
