lyrics

WHO DO YOU THINK r.j.stips


there was an
undiscovered fresco
somewhere down a casco
from a fourteen million years ago

I opened up the turnstile
lightened up the inside
a mirror
in a crystal box
-and the mirror said-
who do you think you are
(play guitar)

we fly around in tin cans
hop around on gin-seng
our green fingers in gasoline
we die for any Allah
we kill for any dollar
twice as hard on benzedrine
-and the mirror says-
who do you think you are,
who do you think,
who do you think,
who do you think you are
(play guitar)

deep down in the jungle
lived a mighty king who
got a full colour kellogg’s corn flakes box
so proud of this holy crown
one day it came falling down
probably a gift of God
- but the missionary said -
who do you think you who do you think
who do you think you who do you think
who do you think you are who do you think you are

the chicken meets the fox
the water eats the rocks
we will meet our gods
they’re waiting for an interview

is it the spirit of the bull in pain
is it the merits of a fool in Spain
who do you think you are

grandma in her wheel chair
on her way to welfare
beaten up by a gang of kids
the writers down in Iran
the skeletons in Viet Nam
why should i still give a dam- about the whole thing

the chicken meets the fox
the water eats the rocks
we will meet our gods
they’re waiting for an interview -----aaah....the western blues!



the chicken meets the fox
the water eats the rocks
we will meet our gods
they’re waiting for an interview -
but the crystal box gives no view
the crystal box gives no view
I ask myself how do I do...
the crystal box gives no view...
