lyrics

Potato chips
How my mouth just drips
Potato chips
How my mouth just drips
Crunch, don’t bring lunch
All I want is chips

Potato chips
drip
Potato chips
drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip, don’t bring lunch
Just chips

It doesn’t matter where I am
I’ll always find a bag around
In a bar or a picinic
Or a baseball ground

Potato chips
How my mouth just drips
Potato chips
Drippy…
All I want is chips

Potato chips
The roof of my mouth is slit
Potato chips
Oh the salt just gets in there, it’s the pits
Crunch, crunchdon’t bring lunch
All I want is more chips

Potato chips
In Cananada they got salt and pepper chips
Potato chips
In Canada they got salt and vinegar chips
Potato chips
Oh and they smell like
All I want is my chips

I can’t control myself anywhere
Even when there’s no bags around
I get desperate, I get antsy
Oh and I start seeing them on the ground

Potato chips
Chips, oh potato chips
Potato chips
yummy… pooh
Crunchy crunchy, don’t bring lunchy
All I want is more chips

about

Willie Wisely Saint Paul, Minnesota

Equal parts Minnesotan music scene veteran and Laurel Canyon resident/devotee, Willie Wisely remains that rare bird mixing profound power pop with arena-sized showmanship, a troubadour on an all night rave up, a cold kombucha on a hot California day, a McCartney-ite taking a break from his Japanese import of “Ram” for a quick Canyon run listening to João Gilberto. ... more
