Guided by Voices - Redboots And The Helmet lyrics

(R. Pollard - J. Pollard)

Redboots smiled like an electric child

The gift his father gave him

Came straight from God

"Journey onward, Son

Through porcupine nights and daffodil days..."

This was in 19 something and 5

Before the rise of the faceless union

In the heart of Mork and Mindy

Spit through tubeless transportation

This catastrophic nightmare endured

Just a burning fart away

From the terminal tooth decay

The landscapes

The algoythms

Penelope

The head shrinkers

We're all too much

Like a sunburn in the arctic

The best Elvis on Earth

The final calculation of slaughtered Indians

On reruns of Rawhide

Redboots picked up a rock

And threw it through an adjacent window

Angry looking people sat luridly in the press box

And the lucky passers-by who stood

Gawking at the new messiah

If you're gonna take a look

Do it by the book

Question the plot?

Obviously not

And the last thing under construction was my mind...
