Don't Blow Your Mind
I said one day I'd find the game
Well now you know I'm not insane
You tried to take me for a ride
Now all you feel is suicide
We're two of a kind
Take what you can find
But don't blow your mind away
You led me to another life
Of work and pain and sacrifice
I broke away from you somehow
And look who's goin' through it now
We're two of a kind
Take what you can find
But don't blow your mind away
So now you know the reason why
I'm laughing here and why you cry
Cuz you don't mean a thing no more
And I'm just like I was before

Lay Down And Die, Goodbye
[Tom Smothers]
You are the only censor. If you don't like what
I say, you have a
choice. You can turn me off..
(chainsaw sound)
[Tom Smothers]
If you don't like what I say, you have a choice.
You can turn me off..
Well I've written home to mother
The ink ran from my tear
I said "Momma, momma please
Tell me why you brought me here"

Levity Ball
I got my invitation to the annual levity ball
Seeing the location is within the mirrored room
Walking in my room I found I had nothing to find
I got into my evening wear and left my clothes behind
I sat down at the stairway seven hours at a time
Writing all of this poetry that I knewq would never
rhyme
The memory I know I must have had when I came in
Was of some place I'd never ever been
And then in came a cake all decorated in my name
With four paper brown candles are all spelling out
this name
The clock was passing out from time to time
I saw it all at the beginning of the ending of my
first levity ball

Reflected
Look upstanding with your head held high
You will be reflected
You look outstanding with your eyes in disguise
Just beyond your glasses
Holy, how he would keep, it's devine
I'm surely glad, I'm surely over town
And even though I'm you will always here
Very rarely worry almost constantly
Could you be receptive
Our life's outstanding in a shower please
Wet my skins a plenty
Baby, what a day I love our town
I'm surely glad, I'm surely all around
And even since I knew it all so clear
You will be reflected
You will be reflected
You will be reflected
You will be reflected, reflected

Refrigerator Heaven
(screams)
I'm freezing, I'm freezing, I'm icicle blue
(So low, low cool)
Cyber, neurotic, technicians imbue
(So low, low cool)
I've been admitted to Refrigerator Heaven
Until they discover a cure for cancer, I'm low
Refrigerator Heaven
So low, Refrigerator Heaven
I'm ice packed, I'm hand-stashed, I'm waiting for
you
I'm older and younger, preserved in a tomb
I've been admitted to Refrigerator Heaven
I feel like I told you, on my heart
I won't get back 'till the sun sets down on the
moon
Won't get back 'till the sun sets down on the moon

with a gun in my back
tryin' to catch a ride in a Cadillac
Thought that I was livin'
but you can't really tell
been tryin' to get away
of that success smell
I need a houseboat
I need a plane
I need a butler
and a trip to Spain
I need everything

and I agree
CHORUS
I'm caught in a dream
So What!

turned out to be hell
Whoa-o-oh
When you see me with a smile on my face
Whoa-o-oh
Then you'll know I'm a mental case
Whoa-o-oh Oh

Whoa-o-oh
CHORUS
I'm caught in a dream
So what!
I don't know what I'm going through
I'm right in between
So I'll
I'll just play along with you

I'm Eighteen
Lines form on my face and
hands
Lines form from the ups and downs
I'm in the middle without any plans
I'm a boy and I'm a man
I'm eighteen
and I don't know what I want
Eighteen
I just don't know what I want
Eighteen
I gotta get away
I gotta get out of this place
I'll go runnin in outer space
Oh yeah
I got a
baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talkin' about
Feels like I'm livin in the middle of doubt
Cause I'm
Eighteen
I get confused every day
Eighteen
I just don't know what to say
Eighteen
I gotta get away
Lines form on my face and my hands
Lines form on the left and right
I'm in the middle
the middle of life
I'm a boy and I'm a man
I'm eighteen and I LIKE IT
Yes I like it
Oh I like it
Love it
Like it
Love it
Eighteen!
Eighteen!
Eighteen!
Eighteen and I LIKE IT

Is It My Body
What have I got
that makes you want to love me
Is it my body
or someone I might be
or somethin' inside me
CHORUS
You better tell me
Tell me
It's really up to you
Have you got the time to find out
Who I really am
What does it take
to get inside of your mind
Give me a break
and take a chance for the very first time
CHORUS
You better tell me
Tell me
It's really up to you
Have you got the time to find out
Who I really am
What have I got
that makes you want to love me
Now is it my body
or someone I might be
or somethin' in side me
CHORUS
You better tell me
Tell me
It's really up to you
Have you got the time to find out
Who I really am

Ballad Of Dwight Fry
Mommy where's daddy? He's been gone for so long.
Do you think he'll ever come home?
I was gone for fourteen days
I coulda been gone for more
Held up in the intensive care ward
lyin on the floor
I was gone for all those days
but I, was not all alone
I made friends with a lot of people
in the danger zone
See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my only mind explode
Since I've gone away
I think I lost some weight there
and I---I'm sure I need some rest
Sleepin don't come very easy
in a straight white vest
Should like to see that little children
She's only four years old---old
I'd give her back all of her play things
even, even the ones I stole
See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my lonely mind explode
when I've gone insane
I wanna get out of here
I wanna, I wanna get out of here
I gotta get out of here
I gotta get out of here
IgottagetoutahereIgottagetoutahereIgottagetoutahere
Ya gotta let me out of here
Let me outta here
I gotta get outta here
Let me outta here
I gotta get outta here
Let me outta here
I gotta get outta here
See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my only mind explode
Blow up in my face
I grabbed my hat and I got my coat
and I, I ran into the street
I saw a man that was choking there
I guess he couldn't breathe
Said to myself this is very strange
I'm glad it wasn't me
But now I hear those sirens callin'
and so I am not free
I DIDN'T WANNA BE
I DIDN'T WANNA BE
I DIDN'T WANNA BE
(See my lonely life unfold)
I DIDN'T WANNA BE
(I see it every day)
LEAVE ME ALONE I DIDN'T WANNA BE
DON'T TOUCH ME!!!!
See my lonely mind explode
when I've gone INSAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNE!
Note: The "letmeouttahere" and the "I didn't wanna
be"/CHORUS intercut sections might not be *exact*,
but I
think the idea is there enough to make it out.

Under My Wheels
The telephone is ringing
You got me on the run
I'm driving in my car now
Anticipating fun
I'm driving right up to you, babe
I guess that you couldn't see, yeah yeah
But you under my wheels
Why don't you let me be
'Cause when you call me on the telephone
Saying take me to the show
And then I say, honey, I just can't go
Old lady's sick and I can't leave her home
The telephone is ringing
You got me on the run
I'm driving in my car now
I got you under my wheels
I got you under my wheels
I got you under my wheels
Yeah yeah

Be My Lover
She struts into the room
But I don't know her
But with a magnifying glance
I just sort of looked her over, hmm
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
'Cause it's a long long way to paradise
And I'm still on my own
Told her that I came
From Detroit City
And I played guitar
In a long-haired rock and roll band
She asked me why
The singer's name was Alice
I said listen, baby
You really wouldn't understand
And I said
Oh baby, if you wanna
Be my lover
You better take me home
'Cause it's a long long way to paradise
And I'm still on my own
Ooooooooh (shucks)

Desperado
I'm a gambler
And I'm a runner
But you knew that
When you lay down
I'm a picture
Of ugly stories
I'm a killer
And I'm a clown
Step into the street by sundown
Step into your last goodbye
You're a target just by living
Twenty dollars will make you die
I wear lace
And I wear black leather
My arms are lightning
On my gun
My shots are clean
And my, my shots are final
My shots are deadly
And when it's done
You're as stiff as my smoking barrel
You're as dead as a desert night
You're a notch
And I'm a legend
You're at peace
And I must hide
Tell where the hell I'm going
Let my bones fall in the dust
Can't you hear that ghost that's calling
As my Colt begins to rust
In the dust
I'm a killer
I'm a clown
I'm a priest
That's gone to town

Dead Babies
Little Betty a pound of
aspirins
She got them from the shelf up on the wall
Betty's mommy wasn't there to save her
She didn't hear her little baby call
(Waaah!)
Dead babies
Can take care of themselves
Dead babies
Can't take things off the shelf
Well we didn't want you anyway
Lalala-la, lalala-la, la la la
Daddy is an agrophile in Texas
Mommy's on the bar most every night
Little Betty's sleeping in the graveyard
Living there in burgundy and wine
Dead babies
Can take care of themselves
Dead babies
Can't take things off the shelf
Well we didn't love you anyway
Lalala-la, lalala-la, la la la
Goodbye, Little Betty
Goodbye, Little Betty
So long, Little Betty
So long, Little Betty
Betty, so long
Dead babies
Can take care of themselves
Dead babies
Can't take things off the shelf
Well we didn't need you anyway
Lalala-la, lalala-la, la la la
Goodbye, Little Betty
(Order in the court! Order in the courtroom!
Order! Order in the court! Order!...etc.)

Killer
What did I do to deserve such a fate
I didn't really want to get
Involved in this thing
Someone handed me this gun and I
I gave it everything
Yeah, I gave it everything
I came into this life
Looked all around
I saw just what I liked
And took what I found
Nothing came easy
Nothing came free
Nothing came at all until they
Came after me
Yeah-hey, yeah
(Whispering)
I didn't really want to get
Involved in this thing
Someone handed me this gun and I
I gave it everything
Yeah, I gave it everything
I gave it everything (sigh)
(Chanting in Latin, etc.)

Call It Evil
I've been around watching little late shows
Drink a lot of beer
Like playing cards with my friends
Call it evil
Call it pain
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, on
my door
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, on

Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my

Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my

Going to get as my babe.
It goes knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock,

Playing sopwith in the back of my head

People look at me, they look at me, but you're dead
Call it evil
Call it pain
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, on
my door
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, come

Gutter Cats Vs. The Jets
I met an alley cat
Pussyfootin around
Till the break of dawn
Found me knocked out flat on my head
Some feline beauty
Waved her tail my way
I just had to stay
I couldn't get the blood off my hands
She made my eyes bug out
Her tail stand up
And I ain't even in heat for a month
(Meow)
House cat
You really got it made
Sleepin all night
And purrfect delight of day
Some feline beauty
Waved her tail my way
I just had to stay
I couldn't get the blood off my bed
She made my eyes bug out
Her tail stand up
And I ain't even in heat for a month
(Meow...mrreow...meow! Meow! Meow!)
Some bad cats from 4th Street
Come down to our alley
Well we say that's cool
But just stay away from me and my boys
Eyes clash
And claws slash
And green-eyed fur goes flyin
Midnight
Catfight
Neckbite
Die
When you're a Jet
You're a Jet all the way
>From your first cigarette
Till your last dyin day
When you're a Jet
Let 'em do what they can
Little boy, you got friends
You're a family man
The Jets are in gear
They're always well-respected
You're never alone
When company's expected
You're well-protected
Here come the Jets
Like a bat out of hell
Somone gets in our way
Someone don't look so well
When you're a Jet
You - Stay - A - Jet
(Pow!)

School's Out
Well we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin all that noise
'Cause they found new toys
Well we can't salute ya
Can't find a flag
If that don't suit ya
That's a drag
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces
No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Well we got no class
And we got no principles
And we got no innocence
We can't even think of a word that rhymes
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces
No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Out for summer
Out till fall
We might not go back at all
School's out forever
School's out for summer
School's out with fever
School's out completely
