What Do You Want from Life (Live Radio Broadcast Record Plant San Francisco November 1974)
Copyright 1975 pseudo songs and swiveltone music
What do you want from life
To kidnap an heiress
Or threaten her with a knife
What do you want from life
To get cable tv
And watch it every night
There you sit
A lump in your chair
Where do you sleep
And what do you wear
When you're sleeping
What do you want from life
An indian guru
To show you the inner light
What do you want from life
A meaningless love affair
With a girl that you met tonight
How can you tell when you're doin' alright
Does your bank account swell
While you're dreaming at night
How do know when you're really in love
Do violins play when you're touching the one
That you're loving
What do you want from life
Someone to love
And somebody that you can trust
What do you want from life
To try and be happy
While you do the nasty things
You must
Well, you can't have that, but if you're an american citizen you are entitled to:
A heated kidney shaped pool,
A microwave oven--don't watch the food cook,
A dyna-gym--I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home,
A kingsize titanic unsinkable molly brown waterbed with polybendum,
A foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
Real simulated indian jewelry,
A gucci shoetree,
A year's supply of antibiotics,
A personally autographed picture of randy mantooth
And bob dylan's new unlisted phone number,
A beautifully restored 3rd reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary's baby,
A dream date in kneepads with paul williams,
A new matador,
A new mastadon,
A maverick,
A mustang,
A montego,
A merc montclair,
A mark iv,
A meteor,
A mercedes,
An mg,
Or a malibu,
A mort moriarty,
A maserati,
A mac truck,
A mazda,
A new monza,
Or a moped,
A winnebago--hell, a herd of winnebago's we're giving 'em away,
Or how about a mcculloch chainsaw,
A las vegas wedding,
A mexican divorce,
A solid gold kama sutra coffee pot,
Or a baby's arm holding an apple?
