What Do You Want From Life?





What Do You Want From Life
The Tubes

What do you want from life?
To kidnap a 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 your 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 you met tonight?

How can you tell when your doin alright?
Does your bank account swell
When your dreaming at night?
How do you know when your really in love?
Do violins play
When your touching the one
That your loving

What do you want from life?
Someone to love
Or somebody you can trust
What do you want from life?
To try and be happy
And do the nasty things you must?


Well you can't have that
But if you are an American citizen, you are entitled to
A heated kidney shaped pool
A microwave oven-dont watch the food cook
A dyna gym-- I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home
A full size titanic unsinkable molly brown waterbed with poybendum
A foolproof plan and an airtight alibi
Real simulated Indian jewelry
A Gucci shoetree
A years 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 mastador
A maverick, A mustang, A montego
A merc Montclair, A mark IV, A meteor
A Mercedes, An MG, A malibu
A Mort moriarty, A Mercedes, A Mac truck
A Mazda, A new Monza or a moped
A Winnebago, hell a herd of Winnebagos we're giving them 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

Need I say more?
