To-Do List
Wash all the pots and linens
Find a psychoanalyst
Go to the bank and deposit checks
Sweep up the shattered dish
Return everything that I've borrowed
Change all the bloody gauze
Buy a spinach-colored dinner jacket
Defy all natural laws
Oh-oh-oh, cancel better homes and gardens
Oh-oh-oh, admire gothic arches
Become a lot more happy
Build a maze of styrofoam
Befriend an unfortunate lunatic
Wail on a saxophone
Walk down the road into darkness
Fall in an orchestra pit
Have an affair in the provinces
Bring flowers to the sick
Oh-oh-oh, find out what's killing the bees
Oh-oh-oh, proclaim a lasting peace
Open the blinds, let the light in
Stand in the amorous rays
Rise up in the name of liberty
Throw out my fascist berets
Purchase balloons for the ballroom
Buy some asparagus
Buy a harmonium and powdered wig
Buy after-dinner mints
Oh-oh-oh, buy head cheese and hock of ham
Oh-oh-oh, become a family man
Finish the Wealth of Nations
Discover a miracle drug
Learn all supreme court justice's names
And test the limits of love
Acquire more guilty pleasures
Sit and watch as the plague goes by
Wash the hot fry stains from my hands
And laugh until I cry
Oh-oh-oh, throw out all the songs I wrote
Oh-oh-oh, and buy a buckskin coat
Find a psychoanalyst
Go to the bank and deposit checks
Sweep up the shattered dish
Return everything that I've borrowed
Change all the bloody gauze
Buy a spinach-colored dinner jacket
Defy all natural laws
Oh-oh-oh, cancel better homes and gardens
Oh-oh-oh, admire gothic arches
Become a lot more happy
Build a maze of styrofoam
Befriend an unfortunate lunatic
Wail on a saxophone
Walk down the road into darkness
Fall in an orchestra pit
Have an affair in the provinces
Bring flowers to the sick
Oh-oh-oh, find out what's killing the bees
Oh-oh-oh, proclaim a lasting peace
Open the blinds, let the light in
Stand in the amorous rays
Rise up in the name of liberty
Throw out my fascist berets
Purchase balloons for the ballroom
Buy some asparagus
Buy a harmonium and powdered wig
Buy after-dinner mints
Oh-oh-oh, buy head cheese and hock of ham
Oh-oh-oh, become a family man
Finish the Wealth of Nations
Discover a miracle drug
Learn all supreme court justice's names
And test the limits of love
Acquire more guilty pleasures
Sit and watch as the plague goes by
Wash the hot fry stains from my hands
And laugh until I cry
Oh-oh-oh, throw out all the songs I wrote
Oh-oh-oh, and buy a buckskin coat
