And you know that she’s half crazy but that’s why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China
I stood at the top of the mountain
And China sang to me
In the peaceful haze of harvest time
A song of eternity
When you climb to the top of the mountain
Look out over the sea
Think about the places perhaps, where a young man could be
Then you jump back down to the rooftops
Look out over the town
Think about all of the strange things circulating round
Why try? I know why
This feeling inside me says it’s time I was gone
Clear head. Life ahead
It’s time I was king now and not just one more pawn
It’s good to be king, if just for a while
To be there in velvet, yeah, to give 'em a smile
It’s good to get high, and never come down
It’s good to be king of your own little town
I’m a fast movin’ baby I can show you around
I got so much cocaine ain’t never comin’ down
Snortin’ whiskey and drinkin’ cocaine
Got this feelin’ I’m gonna drive that girl insane, insanity
What in the world ever became of sweet Jane?
She lost her sparkle, you know she isn’t the same
Livin’ on reds, vitamin C, and cocaine
All a friend can say is “Ain’t it a shame?”
The shrieking of nothing is killing me
Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis
And I ain’t got no money and I ain’t got no hair
But I’m hoping to kick but the planet is glowing
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom’s a junkie
Strung out in heaven’s high
Hitting an all-time low
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin’ for a train
And I’s feelin’ near as faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained
It rode us all the way to New Orleans
Take me back to New Orleans
And drop me at my door
Cause I might love you yes
But I love me more
Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
There lived a girl that I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame
Polk salad Annie polk salad Annie
Everybody said it was a shame
Cause her mama was working on the chain-gang
(a mean, vicious woman)
She lived in these parts, she was a big old girl
Miss Annie, what a wonder
Three hundred pounds and six foot eight, in her bare feet
Annie Christmas
She could drink and she could fight, she had a curly black moustache
She was famous, on the river
She was madly in love with a wild gambling man
That was Charlie and she loved him
But old Charlie never even noticed her at all
Until one day, what a one day
When she wore a very special necklace
Just to prove that she was tough and reckless
With a bead for every ear and nose
She had bitten off, as the story goes
When she bit every man who ever did her wrong
And the necklace was already thirty feet long
And the upshot was, and the upshot was
Old Charlie was impressed and the next thing you know
They were married, what a wedding
And the next year she gave him a dozen sons at once
They were giants!
Your butt is wide, well mine is too
Just watch your mouth or I’ll sit on you
The word is out, better treat me right
'Cause I’m the king of cellulite
Ham on, ham on, ham on whole wheat, all right
Because I’m fat, I’m fat, come on
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, come on you know
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
Don’t you call me pudgy, portly or stout
Just now tell me once again who’s fat
Don’t want to be a fat man,
have not the patience to ignore all that.
Hate to admit to myself half of my problems
came from being fat.
[^^^ nice username/post combo!]
Big bottom, big bottom
Talk about bum cakes, my girl’s got 'em
Big bottom, drive me out of my mind
How could I leave this behind?
I got the blues so bad one time
It put my face in a permanent frown
You know I’m feelin’ so much better
I could cake walk into town
I want to go on a picnic in the country, mama
And stay all day
I don’t care but don’t do nothing
Just while my time away
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And I love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
Lazy, just stay in bed
You’re lazy, just stay in bed
You don’t want no money, you don’t want no bread
All is well
The distant horizon
It’s there in wait
Get so close
You’re so much wiser
But wake up late
On the way to paradise
Ornamental
Or warm and gentle
On the way to paradise
Ornamental
Or warm and gentle
On the way to paradise
As you will some day
You left me here on your way to paradise
You pulled the rug right out from under my life
I know where you goin’ to I knew when you came home last night
'Cause your eyes had a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
