The Indians send signals
From the rocks above the pass
The cowboys take positions
In the bushes and the grass
See them tumbling down
Pledging their love to the ground
Lonely but free I’ll be found
Drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds.
You got to roll me and call me the tumblin’ dice
Snake eyes cry
And boxcars sigh
Seven’s stuck in the middle just wonderin’ why
Lido put the money down let em roll
He said one more job ought to get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One for the road
Operation : Mindcrime
We’re an underground revolution working overtime
Operation : Mindcrime
There’s a job for you in the system boy, with nothing to sign
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign
Blockin’ out the scenery, breakin’ my mind
Do this, don’t do that, can’t you read the sign?
Yeah the sign I see it
Yeah the times I see it
All I need to know from you
Is all I see
You ain’t seen nothin’ yet
B-b-b-baby, you just ain’t seen n-n-nothin’ yet
Here’s something that you never gonna forget
B-b-b-baby, you just ain’t seen n-n-nothin’ yet
I’m just talkin’ 'bout my g-g-g-generation
Ah, ba ba ba ba Barbara Ann
Ba ba ba ba Barbara Ann
You gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, or I will get you
You know you gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, before I get you
I love you Ma-Ma-Ma Belle
I keep my underwear up with a piece of elastic
I use a bullshit mic that’s made out of plastic
To send my rhymes out to all the nations
Like Ma Bell, I got the ill communication
Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch!
Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead.
I got a girl named Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong
She’s everything to me
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley,
Ring, ring, ring went the bell
The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
All through the town
I don’t care how much I pay (Too much, Magic Bus)
I wanna drive my bus to my baby each day (Too much, Magic Bus)
Better catch a cab or get on the bus
I ain’t got no time for you
Oh, it’s time to start living
Time to take a little from the world we’re giving.
Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall.
In just no time at all.
