WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO version Aug. 24 10:56 EST "The Long Grift"
Hedwig & the Angry Inch Look what you've done, you gigolo. You know that I loved you, hon, and I didn't want to know that your cool, seductive serenade was a tool of your trade, you gigolo. Of all the riches you've surveyed, and all that you can lift, I'm just another dollar that you made in you long, long grift. Look what you've done, you gigolo. Another hustle has been run, and now you ought to know that this fool can no longer be swayed by the tools of your trade, you gigolo. I'm just another john you've gypped, another sucker stiffed, a walk on role in the script to your long, long grift. The love that had me in your grip was just a long, long grift. | |

"Sugar Daddy"
Hedwig & the Angry Inch I've got a sweet tooth for licorice drops and jelly roll, Hey sugar daddy, Hansel needs some sugar in his bowl. I'll lay out fine china on the linen And polish up the chrome and if you've got some sugar for me, Sugar Daddy, bring it home. Black strap molasses, you're my orange blossom honey bear. Bring me Versace blue jeans and black designer underwear. We'll dress up like the disco-dancing jet set in Milan and Rome. And if you've got some sugar for me, Sugar Daddy, bring it home. Oh the thrill of control, like the rush of rock and roll, is the sweetest taste I've known. Oh yah so come on, Sugar Daddy, bring it home. When honey bees go shopping it's something to be seen. They swarm to wild flowers and get nectar for the queen. And everything you bring me got me dripping like a honeycomb and if you've got some sugar for me, Sugar Daddy, bring it home. Oh the thrill of control, like the Blitzkrieg on the roll, is the sweetest taste I've know oh yah. If you've got some sugar bring it home.Bah bah dabba dabba dabba do Come on, Sugar Daddy, bring it home! Whiskey and French cigarettes, a motorbike with high-speed jets, a Waterpik, a Cuisinart and a hypo-allergenic dog. I want all the luxuries of the modern age, and every item on every page in the Lillian Vernon catalogue. So you think only a woman can truly love a man. Well you buy me the dress I'll be more woman than a man like you can stand. I'll be your Venus on a chocolate clam shell rising on a sea of marshmallow foam and if you got some sugar for me, Sugar Daddy, bring it home. It's our tradition to control, like Erich Honecker and Helmut Kohl, remember him from the Ukraine to the Rhone. Sweet home uber alles, Lord, I'm coming home.yah Come on, Sugar Daddy, bring me home. | |

Going To California
Spent my days with a woman unkind, Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine. Made up my mind to make a new start, Going To California with an aching in my heart. Someone told me there's a girl out there With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair. Took my chances on a big jet plane, Never let them tell you that they're all the same. The sea was red and the sky was grey, Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today. The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake As the children of the sun began to awake. Seems that the wrath of the Gods Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow; I think I might be sinking. Throw me a line if I reach it in time I'll meet you up there where the path Runs straight and high. To find a queen without a king; They say she plays guitar and cries and sings. La la la la Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born. Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams, Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems. | |

This is the life Everyone has to be somewhere I am here Testing a dream The pressure of dreams is the killer Of dreams And it only gets harder This is the life This is the life This is my life Time is the monster All of us fight the same monster To win I scream when I breathe Fearing that worry will trigger All my fears And it only gets harder (How did I get so serious?) This is the life This is the life This is the life This is my life Everyone has to do something I am here Doing what I do best But this is the life This is the life This is the life | |

On nights like this
when the world's a bit amiss and the lights go down across the trailer park I get down I feel had I feel on the verge of going mad and then it's time to punch the clock I put on some make-up and turn up the tape deck and pull the wig down on my head suddenly I'm Miss Midwest Midnight Checkout Queen until I head home and put myself to bed I look back on where I'm from look at the woman I've become and the strangest things seem suddenly routine I look up from my Vermouth on the rocks a gift-wrapped wig still in the box of towering velveteen. I put on some make-up and some LaVern Baker and pull the wig down from the shelf Suddenly I'm Miss Beehive 1963 Until I wake up And turn back to myself Some girls they have natural ease they wear it any way they please with their French flip curls and perfumed magazines Wear it up Let it down This is the best way that I've found to be the best you've ever seen I put on some make-up and turn up the eight-track I'm pulling the wig down from the shelf Suddenly I'm Miss Farrah Fawcett from TV until I wake up and turn back to myself Shag, bi-level, bob Dorothy Hammil do, Sausage curls, chicken wings It's all because of you With your blow dried, feather back, Toni home wave, too flip, fro, frizz, flop, It's all because of you It's all because of you It's all because of you I put on some make-up turn up the eight-track I'm pulling the wig down from the shelf Suddenly I'm this punk rock star of stage and screen and I ain't never I'm never turning back | |

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall" You thought they were all kiddin' you You used to laugh about Everybody that was hangin' out Now you don't talk so loud Now you don't seem so proud About having to be scrounging for your next meal. How does it feel How does it feel To be without a home Like a complete unknown Like a rolling stone? You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely But you know you only used to get juiced in it And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it You said you'd never compromise With the mystery tramp, but now you realize He's not selling any alibis As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes And ask him do you want to make a deal? How does it feel How does it feel To be on your own With no direction home Like a complete unknown Like a rolling stone? You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns When they all come down and did tricks for you You never understood that it ain't no good You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat Ain't it hard when you discover that He really wasn't where it's at After he took from you everything he could steal. How does it feel How does it feel To be on your own With no direction home Like a complete unknown Like a rolling stone? Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe You used to be so amused At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal. How does it feel How does it feel To be on your own With no direction home Like a complete unknown Like a rolling stone? | |

In this garden
This lovely garden I build a temple of love Walk with the Father Won't be a bother To touch the Earth as it was We'll farm the land each day And in the sunshine we will play Glory glory for the day He came Our tears had gone away We'll make love in the shade And in the ocean we will bathe Little fishies in the sea Say hooray I build this garden for us In this garden Our children will grow Darling this is a must We'll be so happy Our little family So full of love and trust And darling when we're old We'll close the gates and lock the door Our love will never fade away When it's pure it's forever last And darling when you're cold I'll hold you tight and keep you warm Little darlin' gonna make it through the storm You'll never be alone I build this garden for us In this garden They'll be no war No racial prejudice You'll be my brother Of any color You'll just be okay with us We'll love each day in peace In hope that we will one day reach The rest of the world When they are ready to be teached (My favorite line) The kingdom will come Thy will be done On Earth as it is in heaven I build this garden I build this garden for us I build this garden for us [Edited 8/24/06 13:54pm] My Legacy
