If I could be anything

  in the world that flew

  I would be a bat and come

  swooping after you

  And if the last time you were here

  things were a bit askew

  Well, you know what happens after dark

  When rattlesnakes lose their skins and their hearts

  And all the missionaries lose their bark

  Oh, all the trees are calling after you

  And all the venom snipers after you

  Are all the mountains boulder after you

If I could be any one

of the things in this world that bite

Instead of a dentured ocelot on a leash

I'd rather be a kite

Be tied to the end of your string

flying in the air at night

'Cause you know what they say about honey bears

When you shave off all their baby hair

You have a hairy minded pink bare bear

And all the bells are rolling out for you

And all the stones are erupting out for you

And all the cheap luck suckers are flying after you

Yesterday, Daisy Mae and Biff

were grooving on the street

And just like in a movie

her hands became her feet

Her belly button was her mouth

which meant she tasted what she'd speak

But the funny thing is what happened to her nose

It grew until it reached all of her toes

Now, when people say her feet smell, they mean her nose

And all the curtains laced with diamonds for you

And all the Roman noblemen for you

And kingdom's Christian sailors, dear for you

And melting ice cap mountain tops for you

And knights in flaming silver robes for you

And bats that with a kiss turn prince for you

Swoop, swoop, rock, rock

Roll, roll, swoop, swoop

Rock, rock, roll, roll
