1. ISN'T THAT WILD

I was driving home late 1 saturday night
Suddenly I saw this flashing light
A big hole in the ground
I thought it was a lie
It was a satellite It fell out of the sky

Now I'm 40 feet below
Running my own show
Isn't that wild
The programs allright
Coz it's my satellite
Yeah wild
Hello there at home
I'll be your host tonight

I'll give you x-rated nightmares
Your mum wouldn't allow you to see
Tom & Jerry & films 'bout the birds & the bees
Turn your big dish down & receive my lot
Forget about the news, workout & 700 club

Now I'm 40 feet below
Running my own show
Isn't that wild
The programs allright
Coz it's my satellite
Yeah wild
Hello there at home
I'll be your host tonight

Yeah wild


2. A HORSE WITH NO NAME (AMERICA COVER)

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There were sand and hills and rain
The first thing I met was a fly with no buzz
And a sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
'Coz there aint no one to a give you no paine

After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told
Of a river that floated
Made me sad to think it was dead

You see

After nine days I let the horse run free
'Coz the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There were sand and hills and things
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And the perfectest sky is above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love

You see I've been


3. MIGHTY HIGHTY HIGH

Now u wouldn't believe me if I told you a lie
But I went to this party with a real cool guy
He was wearin high-heeled patent leather boots
And a poly-styrene dayglo suit
He said Hey man, don't be afraid
Coz I got a blind date you'll never forget
And then he grabbed my arm and arranged a cab
And lit a strange lookin fag
And I'm mighty, highty, high
I felt I could fly
My mind was sky high my brain said goodbye
I'm mighty, highty, high

Flesh fiddle faddle & the space got hot
I had a hanger banger brass hat & felt like a stud
Hey big Dr. Upstairs pumb my Mr. Big
I'm moonstructed milehigh it's a nuclear trip
Now hang it up stop that goppledigook
Lets get down n dirty the girls are itsypook
Heave hoo in the mumbo-jumbo tree
Wham-bam-boozle can't you see
I'm mighty, highty, high
I felt I could fly
My mind was sky high my brain said goodbye
I'm mighty, highty, high
Aaarrggg

Flim-flam-flophouse above 'n' beyond
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I'm mighty, highty, high
My brains said goodbye
My mind is sky-high I feel I can fly
I'm mighty, highty, high
Yeah, I'm mighty, highty, high
I feel like I can fly
My mind was sky high my brains said goodbye
I'm mighty, highty, high
Hi hi hi hi hi high
So high so high
I feel I can fly fly fly
I'm...


4. BLACK CRICKETS

The winter of fortynine had passed
A winter of haunt n fear
Coz hunger had knocked at the city gate
And threatened the pioneers
Then low in the east strange clouds appeared
And dark became the sun
And the courage to fight n win a war
Was all of a sudden gone

Black crickets
By 10 of millions or more
Black crickets
By 10 of millions or more
Until the fields that waved were few
Black crickets

Crickets by 10 of millions came
Like fog on a british coast
They swept down from the mountain sides
Settled down by their mormon host
Then the eldest old man got this bright idea
And he called for all the men:
We'll build a giant nest & the crickets will fear
That the big bird is here again!

Black crickets

They constructed this nest 2 days went by
They all prayed that by the end of their work
The unexpected guests would fly

They saw the nest the vision occured
& the dogs would wag their tails
The crickets all shouted: Bird is the word!
And the insects hit their trail
All heads were bowed as they thanked their lord
And they reaped while the devil raved
Coz their harvest was saved to tons of praise
And the pioneers were saved

Black crickets

Hundreds of thousands
Thousands of millions
Millions of billions
Billions of trillions
Trillions of zillions
D.A.Dillions of fantazillions
Of black crickets


6. THERE'S A SHIP

I got a lord of my own
& I got him at home
He's the one that I trust
Not to say I must
He is a friendly guy
He used to live in the sky
But then I gave him my key
& now he lives with me
He is not the holy ghost
Or my father nor my son
If I should give him any name
It would be: Captain Fun

There's a ship there's a ship
Sailing by sailing by
There's a ship there's a ship
Sailing by sailing by
There's a ship there's a ship
Sailing by sailing by
There's a ship in the sky
Sailing by sailing by

& I know if I try
He will always stand by
If I should laugh & cheer
I'll know he's here
He's like E.T. if you're askin' me
But he wears this plastic bubble
& that gave us trouble
Coz he's from the sky
& without it he would die
People ask: Whats that?
I reply: That's Capt. Spacehat

There's a ship
Halleluja


7. GODS FAVORITE

Hey folks, believe in me
Coz I'm a disciple can't you see
Avoid the horrors of the big microwave
The instant dinner for the man in the cave
I'm sure the lord will forgive you your faults
U just give me your gold & follow my call
I'm one hell of a kid
I'm Gods favorite

Coz me & the lord got this heavenly deal
He is my master & he taught me to steal
Yeah, me & the lord got this 50/50 split
Coz the old man says I'm one hell of a kid
Yeah, the old man says I'm one hell of a kid
I must be God's favorite
Yeah I'm God's favorite

I'm son of the creator
I make a blind man hear
Now you just open your purse feel the lord's near
Coz he knows your world It's written down in his book
& I'm his clerk & I know what you took
So see u next time at the Jesus-show®
Where blessings are costly & you can't say no

Coz me & the lord got this heavenly deal
He is my master & he taught me to steal
Yeah, me & the lord

Hey folks listen to me
I'm one of God's boys can't you see?
I got the answers and you will seek em
Remember the dollars u saved over this weekend
Sins for free but it costs to confess
So your life lately has it been a mess
Coz we got your record & we know what u did

Coz me & the lord

U know me & big G don't give blessings for free
Gimme what u got or come down where it's hot
I can rap with Saint Peter & tell what u did


8. 10 KNOTS

My kitchen floor started crackin'
And out jumped a man
Big, red & horny
I was shakin' the devil's hand
You got a hell of a reputation
And thats the name of my game
And Ive been diggin' all night
Coz I heard your name
Got a mean main reason have no fear
But first we'll play some poker
And have a warm beer
Lets play a little poker
And have a nize hot beer

I will smash your windows n burn your mail
I tied 10 knots on the devils tail
I can eat a horse even chew a nail
I tied 10 knots on the devils tail
D.A.D. wouldn't cross his trail
Coz I tied 10 knots on the devils tail
Hes the toughest man & he cant fail
But I tied 10 knots on the devils tail

I sat down to the table
With the man that I once feared
He was drinkin hummin drinkin
And ascratchin' his beard
So we drank for about a fortnight
It seemed like some stupid test
Still I was sittin upright
Doing the things that I do best
But the poor devil looked a mess

I will smash your windows

He was red
He seemed kinda pale
Then I tied 10 knots on the devils tail
I dumped him in his hole
Heard the echoes of his scream
Hey boyscout from below
Now tell me who's mean!

I won't smash your windows

I'm so rough I spent summer in jail
'Cause I tied 10 knots on the devils tail
I'm so mean I could out-fart a gale
But I tied 10 knots on the devils tail


9. RIDE MY TRAIN

Hey get out of that tincan you call a car
Coz that old thing wont get you far
Don't take a bus and don't grab a cab
Coz I got a thing that'll drive you mad

C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train

I'm a railroad man I got a coal tan
And I work all day with the railroad gang
A number of trips makes the company pay
The number of bucks I earn a day

C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train

C'm on babe I'll blow your brains
All I want you to do is to ride my traiiin

C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train

U know the girls go crazy boys get a pain
Just because I ride this big black train
Don't know if u like it I'm sure gonna ride it
And if the boys don't like it
I just tell 'em to:

Ride my train
C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train
C'mon ride my train


10. I'D RATHER LIVE THAN DIE

I've seen this fruits of rambling
I know hardship well
And if I'm not mistaken
I hear a ringing bell
I love to start but hate the ends
I crack a joke 'coz I know I need my friends
Do a lot of talking
But seldom with my heart
It hurts when people tell me
I often play to smart
But sometimes I'm happy
And sometimes I'm blue
You know, I'm only passing trough

A look to the sky is the reason why
I'd rather live than die
If heaven can wait I know I'll get by
I'd rather live than die

I always say yes
Though I mean no
Remember to draw a cirkle
And then you'll know
Sometimes I'm happy
Sometimes I'm blue
You know, I'm only passing trough

A look to the sky is the reason why
I'd rather live than die
If heaven can wait I know I'll get by
I'd rather live than die


11. UP UP OVER THE MOUNTAIN

Well, me, my wife and our daugther
We found ourselves standing in New York
It was just a mile? Of? Land? And it was hard to understand
But we bought it from the indian on the run

Yeah, there we were me and daddy
We were travelling through the desert all alone
We were pinely? South? Of west?
We were ? Just a test?
And we could get up up on the mountain top

Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top, once again
Come on up up on the mountain top

By the time that she had reached
The inspiration point
I saw her with an indian
Sharing a joint
Then before I could get up
Close enough to shout stop
The indian had already done his job

Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top

Yipiiiieee

Come on up up on the mountain top, once again
Come on up up on the mountain top, one more time
Come on up up on the mountain top

Yeah, we were me and daddy
We were travelling through the desert all alone
We were pinely? South? Of west?
We were ? Just a test?
And we could get up up on the mountain top

Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top
Mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top, one more time
Come on up up on the mountain top, once again
Come on up up on the mountain top, for the last time
Come on up up up on the mountain top


12. SAD SAD X-MAS

Well, son tomorrow it's christmas
Yeah, daddy it's such a thrill
I'll suppose we'll be watching TV

'Cause mommy she left us
She took the keys to the automobile
She took the creditcards and the furs
And now we can't afford a tree

Oh boy, It's a sad sad christmas
Oh no, 'cause daddy, I love you anyway
And I don't care if she has gone away
And I love you twice as much on christmas day
Yeah, daddy, I love you any way

Well, now we can't afford to celebrate the lord
Daddy, what a lord? He made mother take the Ford
But who's gonna give you your goodnight kiss
And who's gonna clean up after this
Daddy, don't be blue
You know that I love you

Yeah but sonny, It's a sad sad christmas
I tell you boy, It's a sad sad christmas
Oh no, 'cause daddy, I love you anyway
