Have I got cow eyes? Madman thinks I'm mad
Bums, they say: "it's not so bad."
Well the weather's fine, it hasn't rained
When it does i'll just lay down again

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

And prairie dogs that live out west
Want to build the softest nest
Some will do their very best
So their sweet babies can rest

And wild rice that grows down south
May avoid the hungry mouth
They more they grow, the more starved shouts
Will dry out in another drought

Is it true that you have been feeling better?
Well, you're just tired of the temperate weather
Pull your knees into your chest, do your best
To be of good character
We're just tired of the temperate weather

Don't go out in the rain, the rain
You might come home with wet hair and a cane
Your poor bird you found yesterday
Has gone half bald, and all you can hear him say is:
I love you, I do, I do
I love you, my darling, so true
I love you, I do, I do
I love you, big water so blue

Husband says to wife in bed:
"Will you still kiss me when we're dead?'
She said: "What are lips but extensions?
What are arms but awkward limbs?
What are eyes but an aging lens?
And what am I but an old tin can?"

Is it true that you have been feeling better?
Well, you're just tired of the temperate weather
Pull your knees into your chest, do your best
To be of good character
We're just tired of the temperate weather

La-da da-da da-da-da da

Dear grand jury, this is my sad story
My father, the flesh, has gone astray
He said "don't get married
Or start a family
Cause they are just children, they will die someday."
So please hold my mother
Console my brother
Tell my sister, please
Albuquerque is too far away

And the sun was awful
As I grew unthoughtful
'Til the coyotes and the cacti
Were all coming out to sing
And they say:


"Is something wrong?"
"Is something
"Is something wrong?"
