Cake: "Meanwhile, Rick James..." Lyrics

Ddisenpowered

The scattering flock

Dances in a fever

At the castle rock



Dust-devil cypress

And ripening fruit

Descending quick

Into the authors bathroom



Fawn, jo and tootsie

Are out on a wire

Lettuce-toothed junkies

All full of desire



Meanwhile, rick james takes her new

And theres nothing I can do

Meanwhile, rick james takes her new

And theres nothing I can do

And theres nothing I can say to you

Ive got a lot of work to do

I guess Ill leave it up to you



Uninvited

Well stay if we want

Searching through your closets

For your grandfathers gun



We will swim in your kidney

Kidney-shaped pool

Scratching at the bottom

For another clue, yeah



Fawn, jo and tootsie

Are out on a wire

Lettuce-toothed junkies

All full of desire



Meanwhile, rick james takes her new

And theres nothing I can do

Meanwhile, rick james takes her new

And theres nothing I can do

(meanwhile, rick james takes her new)

And theres nothing I can say to you

(meanwhile, rick james takes her new)



And theres nothing I can do

And theres nothing I can say to you

Ive got a lot of work to do

I guess Ill leave it up to you
