Despite the fact Jon and Wendy have not spoken to Lenny for twenty years and he is even more loathsome than ever, the Savage siblings feel obliged to take care of him.

It's really good.

Okay.

Come on, baby. Come on.

Let's go.

I'm sticking with you

'Cause I'm made out of glue

Anything that you might do

I'm gonna do, too

You held up a stagecoach in the rain

And I'm doing the same

Saw you hanging from a tree

And I made-believe it was me

I'm sticking with you

'Cause I'm made out of glue

Anything that you might do

I'm gonna do, too

Moon people going

to the stratosphere

Soldiers fighting with the Cong

But with you by my side,

I can do anything

When we swing

We hang past right and wrong

I'll do anything for you

Anything you want me to

I'll do anything for you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh, I'm sticking with you

Oh-oh
