I'm a Conservative - Live at Keystone, Palo Alto, California 13th February 1983
I used to lead a quiet life
In fact it was a bare existence
I passed out on many floors
I don't do that any more
Hello my friends
Is everybody happy?
Hey look me over, lend me an ear
I'm a conservative
I like the small black marks on my hand
I'm a conservative
I like the crazy girls that I screw
Hey, hey I know them all well
And when I run out of bread I laugh
All the way to the bank
Sometimes I pause for a drink
Conservatism ain't no easy job
I smile in the mornings
I live without a care
Nothing is denied me
And nothing ever hurts
I got bored so I'm making my millions
When you're conservative you get a better break
You're always on the right side
When you're conservative
You walk with pride
Pride is on your side
(Pride pride pride is on our side)
(Oh boy, pride is on our side)
I like my beer
I like my bread
I love my girl
I love my head
I'm in the clear man
I'm in the clear
'Cause I'm a conservative
I'm a conservative
I really am, oh, yes l am
And it could mean so much to me
If you would only be like me
Yes it could mean so much to me
Hey, look me over
Lend me an ear
I'm a conservative
In fact it was a bare existence
I passed out on many floors
I don't do that any more
Hello my friends
Is everybody happy?
Hey look me over, lend me an ear
I'm a conservative
I like the small black marks on my hand
I'm a conservative
I like the crazy girls that I screw
Hey, hey I know them all well
And when I run out of bread I laugh
All the way to the bank
Sometimes I pause for a drink
Conservatism ain't no easy job
I smile in the mornings
I live without a care
Nothing is denied me
And nothing ever hurts
I got bored so I'm making my millions
When you're conservative you get a better break
You're always on the right side
When you're conservative
You walk with pride
Pride is on your side
(Pride pride pride is on our side)
(Oh boy, pride is on our side)
I like my beer
I like my bread
I love my girl
I love my head
I'm in the clear man
I'm in the clear
'Cause I'm a conservative
I'm a conservative
I really am, oh, yes l am
And it could mean so much to me
If you would only be like me
Yes it could mean so much to me
Hey, look me over
Lend me an ear
I'm a conservative
