THOUGHTS IN SPACE I
 

DESERT

The girl crossed the desert
And met the drifter out there
Cactus promise
Moon
Cold sand
The woman crossed the desert
And met her man

DEVIL

Oh you naughty little devil
Does your mother know you're out?
With your hands in your pocket
And your shirt sticking out.

Did you ever go fishing
On a hot summer day.
Sitting on a fence
When the fence gave way.

And a cop comes along
And grabs you by the pants.
And all the little children
Do the hootchy-cootchy dance.
 

DID YOU

Did you get what you want
When I made love to you?
Did you take like no tomorrow?
Why not?
 

DREAMS

My dreams are not for sale
So don't ask me for a price
My dreams need company
But not a compromise
So come live in my dreams
Only if we are going the same
Don't change and nor I
We have to be alike
And that's my price
 

ENERGY CRISIS BLUES

Sitting at home
Eating cold beans
I've got the Energy Crisis Blues
Blanket wrapped around
Twenty pairs of clothes
I've got the No Heat blues
Do you remember S-T-E-A-K?
How about G-A-S-O-L-I-N-E?
I've got the Fuel Shortage Blues
So I'll light my candle
And have a cup of water for lunch
I've got the Energy Crisis Blues
