• Mister, would you please help my pony?
  He's over there behind the tree
  He's down in the dirt, would ya help him?
  I think it's his lung
  
  Mister would you please help my pony?
  He's chewin' bark and not the leaves
  He's cryin' like a baby, would you help him?
  I think it's his lung
  
  Mister, would you please help my pony?
  He's down and he ain't gettin' up
  He coughed up snot in the driveway
  And I think his lung's fucked up
  
  Pony, Pony, Pony
  
  Mister, would you please help my pony?
  I think it's his lung
  
  Mister, would you please help my pony?
  He's over there lookin' at me
  He can't talk because he's a pony
  I think it's his lung
  
  Mister, would you please help my pony?
  He's over there behind the tree
  He's down in the dirt, would ya help him?
  I think it's his lung Writer/s: AARON FREEMAN, MICHAEL MELCHIONDO

• Sean from Melb, AustraliaYeah... seems pretty likely.
  
  Jeremy this is a site about song facts... if theres a fact about a song, why not post it?
• Andy from Custer, SdMillions have "actually ever heard this one". That's why it is posted. This song rocks and is hilarious. His lung is F-ed up!
• Zoloft from Milton, WvThis song is a classic and it is on one of Ween's finer albums. Musically, there are very few acts who can match the enthusiasm of Ween. Never taking themselves seriously, they do rock and roll right.
• Tom from Mount Joy, PaThis is a GREAT album from begining to end. the story behind this is funny as hell.
• Ash from Charleston, WvYes, I have heard this entire album. I've only listened to it a couple of times. My brother made a copy of it for me a few years back. I don't really remember this song, but the song "Spinal Meningitis" is one that will probably be stuck in my head for the rest of my life. It is extremely disturbing, and I may never listen to it again.
• Jeremy from Winner, SdO.K. so has anyone actually ever heard this one? I'm kind of wondering why it's even posted.
