lyrics

VIETNAM

I am the shape of things to come
I want to see the world
I want to interact in a meaningful way with all those foreign people
Lord, lord -- I`m going to Vietnam!

Kiss me with your tomato lips
Teach me to do the right thing
I wanna sing the songs of the lizard king
When one door closes another opens

I am an artist
I see the women on Fifth Avenue
I see the diamonds in their eyes
I kiss their bejewelled feet
I think of earth women in the fields of rice stooped beneath their ancient burden
I wanna shower them in dollars
I wanna look down on them from my insectcopter
Give me one thousand silver bullets
Give me a rifle forged in your spinning heaven

This is the shape of things to come
One day the world will be ruled by suicide politicians
Let us move across the face of the earth like beasts
Beneath the benevolent shadow of thine B52
There are holes in the ground
There are holes in the sky
I can hear music
I am an artist
I will live on Maggie`s farm!
Lord, lord -- I`m going to Vietnam!

Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Every cloud has a poisoned lining
Gimme gimme gimme benzadrine
