    A happy and yet sad song with remarkable lyrics. It's a camp fire song, a love song and a tribute to the magical man who made and sold hot dogs like no other.
    CD: Basement Dog Licks   Label: Dirigible Records
    Credits: Recorded, produced, mixed and mastered by the boys from nowhere.

    Story Behind the Song
    This song could be a Ball Park Franks commercial if it weren't for the sad truth that the song is about how Figby started stealing hot dogs from a great and wise man. The chorus is happy and yet kinda melencholy when you think about it. I remember the weenie man.

    Lyrics
    The Weenie Man

    © the boys from nowhere

    I remember the weenie man
    Try to sell dogs as fast as you can he'd always say
    I looked up to the weenie man
    He took me by the hand and he said

    There's a special spell in every dog I sell

    I woke up in the morning, yeah
    Just to wait for the weenie man to show up
    He showed me the ropes of the job
    He said someday you'll cook those hot dogs

    So open up and shove a little hot dog love inside

    CHORUS:
    I remember the weenie man
    Corn dogs, chili dogs, He'll make'em any way you can
    And ever hot dog was better than the last
    I remember the weenie man

    Then one day the dogs spoke to me
    They said they were very sad and ill at ease
    They feared that they'd be grilled and ate
    So that night we made our escape far away

    I hid them with my socks in an old shoe box and cried

    CHORUS

    Now I go to the grocery store
    I grab the hot dogs and I bust out the door
    But I fear I'm hunted by the law these days
    And I fear the green beans are talking to me

    I am a spectacle I've helped the vegetables escape

    CHORUS (x2)
