Have you seen my girlfriend 
She lives in a pig pen 
Have you seen my girlfriend 
I can't seem to find her 
Perhaps she is hiding 
Underneath a blade of grass 

CHORUS 
Let's take the whole day off 
Let's take the whole day off 
Let's take the whole day off . . . 

Have you seen my new house 
Looks just like a dog house 
Have you seen my new house 
Someone saw it walking 
Straight into the ocean 
He thought it was an ivory boat 

CHORUS 

BRIDGE 
Maybe--it's just a bad dream and I'll wake up soon 
But I don't think I'll be so lucky 
Maybe--it's just one of those strange days when nothing seems right 
No nothing seems right at all 
Went up to a pay phone on a bathroom wall 
But I can't remember who I want to call 
Operator can you help me 

Have you seen my garden 
It is most peculiar 
Have you seen my garden 
Nothing there that grows 
Looks anything at all like plants 
I hear their voices . . . 
Let's take the whole day off . . . 

CHORUS 
Have you seen my girlfriend 
Have you seen my girlfriend . . .
