I been Norman Mailered Maxwell Taylored
I been John O'Hara'd McNamara'd
I been Rolling Stoned
And Beatled 'til I'm blind
I been Ayn Randed
Nearly branded
Communist cause I'm left-handed
That's the hand
I use well never mind
I been Phil Spectored resurrected
I been Lou Adlered Barry Sadlered
Well I paid all the dues
I want to pay
And I learned the truth
From Lenny Bruce
And all of my wealth
Won't buy me health
So I smoke
A pint of tea a day
I knew a man
His brain so small
He couldn't think of
Nothing at all
Not the same as you and me
He doesn't dig poetry
He's so unhip when you say Dylan
He thinks you're
Talking about Dylan Thomas
Whoever he was
The man ain't got no culture
But it's alright Ma
Everybody must get stoned
I been Mick Jaggered
Been silver daggered
Andy Warhol
Won't you please come home
I been mothered fathered
Aunt and uncled
Been Roy Haleed
And Art Garfunkeled
I just discovered
Somebody's tapped my phone
