Lyrics

somebody?s leg

there?s a man on the street got nowhere to go
he loves a girl got nowhere to go
they?ve got three kids got nowhere to go
the kids got a dog got nowhere to go
the dog wags his tail, what does he know
the world is his bathroom and he?s got to go
aint so easy for people as you probably know
can they come by your place,?..well gee, I dont know..?

if this is cool, I want to be hot
if this is hip I guess I?m not
somebody?s pulling somebody?s leg
somebody?s leg, somebody?s leg

sometimes it seems the whole towns on drugs
lining the pockets of a growing band of thugs
get so messed up they dont know where they?re at
all they want is more, what knid of fun is that?
up in the morning, buzzing all day
down at night dream your blues away
you smoke and drink and sniff and inject
and never quite achieve the desired effect

if this is cool......

you can go to the bishop he?s the nicest of cats
he?s got a big ring and some wonderful hats
we are his flock, he is our shepherd
got an in with the guy who put the spots on the leopard
claims not to partake of our carnal excesses
always appears in long black dresses
he?s a busy man with a powerful thirst
you can kiss his ring if you kneel down first

if this is cool.........
