lyrics

My mind’s alive with many things.
I think it’s love.
It looks like rain.

you won’t
talk you’re like a clock
that only ticks and chases chicks
just a fearsome hairy hero
with a toothpick for a dick

My mind’s alive with many things.
It feels like love. It smells like rain.

I dreamed I saw a mounted man
Malverdi was his name
but he hit the Rio Grande
and he died there on his face

well it’s high high high
and we’ll giddy-up all day
once the spider conquers all the land
then gives it all away

My mind’s alive with many things.
It could be love. It could be rain.

some people love their country
some just love themselves
some people think we’re idiots
if we believe in hell
Some people love a vanished truth
some people love their shoes
some people love the stuff they smoke
I do too!

then one day I met Malverdi at the New York Stock Exchange
blessing spiders and traders, with a headstone for a face


it’s a high high high
yippie yi high yippie yay
once Zendejas moves the good weed up
from jail in Monterrey

it’s a high high high
yippie yi high yippie yay
gonna fuck some federales up
if they come this way

My mind’s alive with many things.
I think it’s love.
It looks like rain.

It’s a hi yi yi yippie yi hee yippie yay
as Pancho Villa said to Pershing:
“FUCK THE US of A!”
