ADRIAN BELEW - Bird in a Box lyrics

I'm not a free lunch box car parked in the seat

Dead-end streetcar of desire caught by the tailpiece

I'm a jiffy pop tarts are bad for your teen-aged beef

There's a mando-linda evans talking on the

Phone call a porter wagoner tailor-made underwear

Every dog has his dayton ohio hitler

Says to button your fly tijuana place a bette midler

Oh drop dead lock stock and bugle coral reefer man

Every marlon brando gave him a great big handstand

What a lumpy guy lumbago embargo fish pants

Is there a groucho marxist doctrine in the

House calls about a lost set of keystone cops out

The same way you came in through the bathroom wind-

Oh look! a rock'n'roller skate and all skate slowly

Hey man a t-bone state of the aren't

You gonna finish your bird in a box

Hey man your witness to the stand still

Shoulder to shoulder the burden a box

Hey man and even colonel sanders' daddy

Was a thunderbird in a box

Loose tooth three of a perfect paradiced onions cheese

And beans from another planeteri gargoyle change

Every two thousand smiled at

Linda evans called again singing happy birthmark
