Out in the woods

Up to no good

I wanna make friends with the badger



The woodchuck likes me

We smoke PCP

I wanna make friends with the badger

I mean it!

I wanna make friends with the badger

For real!

I wanna make friends with the

Wanna make friends with the

Wanna make friends with the badger



Get drunk with owls

Drop acid with cows

I wanna make friends with the badger



I'll stand on my head till I'm legally dead

I wanna make friends with the badger

From the heart

I wanna make friends with the badger

You know it

I wanna make friends with the

Wanna make friends with the

Climbing the trees

Spreading disease

I wanna make friends with the badger

I wouldn't lie

I wanna make friends with the badger

He's my buddy

I wanna make friends with the

Wanna make friends with the

Wanna make friends with the badger



I wanna make friends with the badger (x2)

Smoking the leaves

I wanna make friends with the

Wanna make friends with the

Wanna make friends with the badger
