I remember one night the kid cut off his right arm
In a fit to save a bit of power He got fifty thousand watts In a big acoustic tower Security's so tight tonight Oh they're ready for a tussle Gotta keep your backstage passes 'Cause your promoter had the muscle And so it goes and so it goes And so it goes and so it goes But where it's goin' no one knows And so it goes and so it goes And so it goes and so it goes But where it's goin' no one knows In the tall building sit the head of our nations Worthy men from Spain and Siam All day discussions with the Russians But they still went ahead and vetoed the plan Now up jumped the U.S. representative He's the one with the tired eyes 747 put him in that condition Flyin' back from a peace keepin' mission In the air there's after shave lotion in the wake of a snakey Persian On his arm there's a skin tight vision Wonder why she ain't mine shes his But where it's goin' no one knows |

Once I was a soldier
I rode on a big white horse Silver pistols at my side Carryin' the flags of war And I Iost track of the men who fell In the canon's roar I never got over bein' a soldier Once I was a tax man Collectin' dollars and dimes I heard the rich man grumble I heard the poor man cry Some few couldn't afford to pay Were put to a shackle and key I never got over bein' a tax man Once I was a ruler About twelve inches long Three times me made a yardstick 36 inches high 36 inches high was I 36 inches high I never got over 36 inches high |

Marie Provost did not look her best
The day the cops bust into her lonely nest In the cheap hotel up on Hollywood West July 29 She'd been lyin' there for two or three weeks The neighbors said they never heard a squeak For hungry eyes that could not speak Said even little doggie's have got to eat She was the winner That became the doggie's dinner She never meant that much to me Woe, poor Marie Marie Provost was a movie queen Mysterious angel of the silent screen And run like the wind the nation's young men steam When Marie crossed the silent screen Oh she came out west from New York But when the talkies came Marie just couldn't cope Her public said Marie take a walk All the way back to New York She was the winner That became the doggie's dinner She never meant that much to me But now I see, poor Marie Those twin balms didn't help her sleep As her nights grew long and her days grew bleak It's all downhill once you've passed your peak Mary got ready for that last big sleep The cops came in and they looked around Throwing up everywhere over what they found The handywork of Marie's little dachshund That hungry little dachshund She was the winner That became the doggie's dinner She never meant that much to me Woe, poor Marie Poor Marie, poor Marie, poor poor Marie Poor Marie, poor Marie, poor Marie |

Well I heard they castrated Castro
I heard they cut off everything he had What a dirty low down thing to do To mess him up like that They dumped him in a jungle In the land of the sugar cane Ever since the day they fiddled around I said he ain’t never been the same I say Oooh-La I say Oooh-La I say Oooh-La Well I heard they castrated Castro Because he was the people’s friend They told him once and they told him twice Said I ain’t gonna tell you again They put a bit of pressure on him That’s when he told them what they could do So the word came down from a northern town "Set up a jungle rendezvous" I say Oooh-La I say Oooh-La We say Oooh-La He had been livin’ in a different world Then he was nutted by reality He had been living in another tree Then he flew down To see what happened I went out to see my sister She was not in So I went and bought a paper Then I returned She was well into the racing On the TV She has never been that fond of me I went and turned her over See I’d been livin’ in a different world Then I was nutted by reality I had been living in another tree Then I flew down To see what happens I was listening to an echo I was impressed Even though I couldn’t see it It was the most I was jumping and a-gleeing at every one I was speaking in a foreign tongue My pleasure gave no pleasure See I’d been livin’ in a different world Then I was nutted by reality I had been barking up another tree Then I flew down To see what happened |
