She struts into the room
Well I don't know her But with a magnifying glance I just sorta look her over We have a drink or two,..well maybe three And then suddenly, she starts telling me her life story She says Baby, if you wanna, be my lover You better take me home Cuz it's a long long way to paradise And I'm still on my own.

I got the answers to all of your questions
If you've got the money to pay me in gold I will be living in old Monte Carlo And you will be reading the secrets of soul Daggers and contacts and bright shiny limos I've got a watch that turns into a lifeboat Glimmering nightgowns, poisonous as cobras Silencer under the heel of my shoe The elegance of China They sent her to lie here on her back But as she deeply moves me She'd rather shoot me in my tracks And while a Middle Asian lady She really came as no surprise But I still did destroy her And I will smash Halo of flies I crossed the ocean where no one could see And I put a time-bomb in your submarine Goodbye to old friends, the secret's in hand With full need of papers and counterfeit plans You never will understand |

Lookin hard and feelin mean I took a spit at the moon It's all in this luney tune Just a little insane A couple shots, I can't feel no pain Hey, where have I been? And who are these scary men? Is this all real? Is this all necessary? Or it this a joke? Many know I don't regret at all They locked me up for good Pinned me against the wall I can't find the exit I quit lookin for doors I stole a razor from the commissary I just couldn't take it no more I'm swimmin in blood Like a rat on a sewer floor No longer insane Just part of this crazy dream |

Finally got a ride, some old broad down from Santa Fe.
She was a real go-getter. She drawled so sweetly, "I think, child, that things'll get better." We pulled off the highway, night black as a widow. "Yes, I read the Bible," she said, "I wanna know of you." Hey, I think I've got a live one, Hey, I think I've got a live one, Yeah, Yeah, I think I've got a live one. Felt like I was hit by a diesel or a greyhound bus. She was no baby-sitter. "Get up, sugar, never thought you'd be a quitter." I opened the back door, she was greedy. I ran through the desert, she was chasin'. No time to get dressed, so I was naked, stranded in Chihuahua. Hey, I think I've got a live one, Hey, I think I've got a live one, Hey, hey, I think I've got a live one, Alone, raped and freezin', Alone cold and sneezin', Alone down in Mexico, Alone. |

Candy everywhere, got chocolate in my hair,
Aching to get me. Sticky sweet suckers in the Halloween air, Aching to get me. Saint Vitus dance on my molars tonight, Aching to get me. Aching to get me, get me oh ... Take it to the doc, I guess he ought to know, La, da, da, da, da. Which ones can stay, which ones gotta go. La, da, da, da, da. He looks in my mouth and then he starts to gloat. He says my teeth are O.K., But my gums got to go. Oh oh ... I come off the gas but I'm still seeing spies, Aching to get me. I can see them all through a glassy pair of eyes, Aching to get me. De Sade's gonna live in my mouth tonight, La, da, da, da, da, And the rotten tooth fairy is satisfied, La, da, da, da, da, Aching to get me, get me oh ... |

Please clean the plates, dear
The Lord above can see ya Don't you know people are starving in Korea? Alcohol and razor blades are straight pins and needles Kindergarten people-they use'em, they need'em Over-indulging machineswere their children there wasn't a way down on Earth to cool'em 'Cause they look just like humans at Kresges and Woolworths But decadent brains were ruling the streets Saying generation landslide closed the gap between'em And I laugh to myself at the men and the ladies Who never conceived of us billion dollar babies militant mothers hiding in their basement Using pots and pants as their shields and their helmets Molotov milk bottles haved from pink high chairs While Mothers' Lib burned son's hours But she owns a Maserati that's a gift from his father Stopped at full speed at a hundred miles per hour The Colgate invicible shield finally got'em |
