GODSONG 

God never really did like man anyway
At least not after they started walking around
On their hind leg(s)
And talking on the telephone
Of course poor God's point of view wasn't easy now (to) understand
He had invented man from dead things
At that time there were no grave yards to rob
So He had been forced to use dead worms, some sea weed
That had laid out on the beach for quite a while
For quite a while.
At that time man had four legs and no telephone
A major mistake came when God decided that man should think
(A trait that He'd long desired for Himself)
What God no doubt intended was
For man to think about Him
And that was important because
God just wanted to be
Just another normal deity
Deity Deity Ty Ty Ty Ty Ty
All that God wanted to be
Was just a normal deity
All that God wanted to be
Was just another normal deity
All that God wanted to be
Was just a deity
Just a normal deity
All that God wanted to be
Just a normal deity
All that God wanted to be
Just a normal deity
All went well for quite a while
Man was a wonderful creature
With long rich engraved face
Four fine legs ending in five mini-legs
And a coat of satiney hair
And large genitals
His thoughts were pure and
Full of wonder
The wonder part was God's favorite,
(at least at first)
Because that's the part that gave Him
His Identity Identity Identity Identity
Oh, it was so wonderful for God
Man's... Man's questions turned to visions
And visions gave God
All kinds of exciting things to do
Someday He would be a God of wrath
Reeking havoc upon undiscipline mankind
And at other times He'd be a God of love and compassion
Of course these were all things that man had invented
So God had a hard time getting the full grasp
But...
One of His favorite things
Was man's believing in Him, and then not believing in Him
One of His favorite things
Was man's believing in Him, and then not believing in Him
Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
...Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
.......Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
...........Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
...............Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
...................Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
.......................Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
...........................Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
...............................Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
...................................Believing in Him, Not believing in Him
.......................................Like some hide and seek game
...................................Over
...............................And
...........................Over
.......................And
...................Over and Over
...............Believing in Him
...........Believing in Him
.......Believing in Him
...Not believing in Him...
Not believing in Him?
I think He liked believing in Him much better...
But I'm not sure...

GONE AGAIN 

Amusement parks are caked with sounds
A solid hunk of meat
A barker's sweat flings from his tongue
His tattoo shines with heat

A wary stranger stands and sways
Enraptured by his stance
Two-headed goats come stumbling by
And give a troubled glance

The barker looks into the eyes
The stranger tries to bend
The barker swears to more delights
For all who seek within

The stranger enters canvas doors
Smells the fresh cut hay
The barker points to Siamese twins
The stranger looks away

The eyes of horse faced women
Watch the few who wander through
They sense the tension in the air
And smell the sweet taboo

A heart beats fast against a chest
The stranger leaves the tent
The waves of people drown the sounds
Of loss of innocence

GUYLUM BARDOT 

The love that we've been through
Was splintered and sent to
The end of
The rainbow today
Now that its over
The grass and the clover
Grow over
The ground where I lay
Come back Petonia
Come back I say
I'm hopin' soon ya'll
Be with me to stay
Be with me to stay

HANDFUL OF DESIRE 

Sinews crackled in the heat
Of noonday raptured thrill
A moisture laden syncopated
Automated drill
A handful of desirous needs
That's much too soon fulfilled

HARD AND TENDERLY 

They called me "Mr. X, Indeed", the special ones that saw so deep inside
the souls of those who were so lonely. I was down beneath the bottom, when
my vacant staring caught them gaily parading up and down the
street-followed by some stinking masses, freeing fumes and giving gasses
to the brown and nearly worn out air. But they had that certain presence
like the ether or the essence of the cleansing upper atmosphere. Laughing,
loving, and without a doubt, they simply strode about the streets that
other creatures left alone. I ran across, myself compulsive, with the
feeling of a pulsing drum that pounded underneath my skin. A tingling in
my tangled brain was screaming that this was insane, but it also told me,
"Touch it," too.
"Stand aside," I told the masses, and with that I made my passage frome
lonely to the only side. Openly they smiled to greet me, like they always
knew they'd meet me somewhere walking up and down the road. I knew I must
appear as someone far beyond the common come-on, so I could not say my nae
was Ed. So I said, "I'm Mr. X who wants to come and who expects to help
and guide your efforts to succeed." They laughed a little bit at me, and
then said, "Mr. X-Indeed," and hugged me somehow hard and tenderly.

HARRY THE HEAD 

The Head was hardly human
The head is finally dead
"I can live forever
In formaldehyde", he said.
Once he made me so mad
I knocked him on the floor;
He rolled around and found a
little paint brush
by the door;
As he held it in his teeth
he painted angels
On the skirt I wore.
Harry
Harry
Harry
Harry - The Head is dead.
Harry - The Head is dead.
Harry - The Head is dead.
Herman - The Human Mole
Herman
Herman
Herman isn't happy
Herman isn't well
Herman is an albino
Not that you could tell.
Herman
Herman
Herman is dirty
Herman is cold
Herman is thirty and
Wishes he was old
But he isn't.
Herman has a trailer
On top of it is grass
He filled the inside up with dirt
And made the sides of glass
He lets you climb the steps
Up to the top for free
And look down through a little hole
Above his old TV.
But if you want some more
You pay to go inside
The tent that goes around the trailer
In which Herman hides.
Herman plays piano
When no one is around
He has an upright baby Steinway
Underneath the ground.

HERE COME THE BUMS   

Here come the bums
They're after me
Can't you see me coming
They're gonna get me
Gonna get me
"We're taking you to the shadow land,
and only you know we're after you!"
I don't wanna go
Asking for dimes
Inside my mind
Every night I see them
When I'm sleepin'
When I'm sleepin'
Sometimes I think
That I'm a bum
But nobody told me
How can I tell?
How can I tell?
"We're taking you to the shadow land,
and only you know we're after you"
I don't wanna go.

HITLER WAS A VEGETARIAN 

Too many teardrops for one heart to be cryin'
Too many teardrops for one heart to carry on
You're way on top now
Since you left me
You're always laughin'
Way down at me
But watch out now
I'm gonna get there
We'll be together
For just a little while
And then I'm gonna put you
Way down here
And you'll start cryin'
Ninety-six tears
Cry
Cry cry cry

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you

Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone
But Judy left the same time
Why was he holding her hand
When he's supposed to be mine

[spoken]
Yes, it's your party, I know it's your party
And, you know that you can cry, and, it's cool
But you have to remember that I too cried my 96 tears
And... it's just something we all have to go through
some time or another
And, you know, it would be unfair and it would be
untrue
If I was to say to you that you couldn't get much
higher
So, you know, even if it's your party and all...

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire

Fearless men fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret

Yummy yummy yummy
I got love in my tummy
And I feel like lovin' you
Love, you're such a sweet thing
Good enough to eating
And that's what I'm gonna do.
Ooh love, to hug you,
Ooh love, to kiss you,
Ooh love, I love it so.
Ooh love, you're sweeter,
Sweeter than sugar.
Ooh love, I won't let you go.

Yummy yummy yummy
I got love in my tummy
And I feel like lovin' you
The lovin' that you re giving
is what keeps me livin'
And your love is like
Peaches and cream.
Kinda like sugar
Kinda like spices
Kinda like, like what you do
Kinda sounds funny.
But you know, honey
Honey. I love you.

Pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' too hard
Pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' too hard
Pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' too hard
Pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' pushin' too hard

Good lovin'
Good lovin'

Good lovin'

I was feelin' oh so bad,
I asked my family doctor just what I had,
I said "Doctor,
Mr. M.D.
Can you tell me
What's ailin' me?"

He said, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah"
And said "all you really need..."
Good lovin'
Good lovin'
Good lovin'
Good lovin'

I'm crazy about my baby
You know she comes around
She make me feel so good
From her head to the ground

And her name is G
L
O
R
I
Gloria

In-a-gadda-da-vida, honey,
Dont you know that I love you?
In-a-gadda-da-vida, honey
Dont you know that Ill always be true?

Oh, wont you come with me
And take my hand?
Oh, wont you come with me
And walk this land?

HOME AGE CONVERSATION 

Walking where the windy stops
The tops of trees are bare
Where'd you go, you didn't say
And I was so upset
And I saw a thousand motorcycles
As they made meat out of Mars.
Way to go
You know the way
To San Jose in cars.
Let the best of Wild Wild West
Digest and have some tea.

HONEY BEAR 

Tell me why I am so scared

Tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me
Tell me, tell me, I'm your honey bear
Tell me, tell me, I can be your cubby
Tell me I am your chocolate ?clair
Tell me that you are somewhere above me
Tell me, tell me, and I won't be scared

Once I was a linebacker in college
Once they put my picture on the wall
Once I ate much more than I could swallow
Once I had so very far to fall
Once I had a father I could follow
Once he hardly hated me at all

Now I am an unemployed policeman
Now my pickup needs to be repaired
Now I wait for you to gag and grease me
Now I hope you'll hold me by the hair
Now I live in shadows of my dreams and
Want you to be humble honey bear
