Arroyo lyrics

(GUITARS & BASS INTRO)



(spoken)



...city street



hang out



thumbs in pocket



black jacket



black jack



dego-red



Manhattenized-Bohemia



of Southern California,



tough punk of



cool, futuristic Montana...







(sung)



well, have you ever been mixed up



feel like you`re in a stick-up, a hold-up,



a robbery in progress?



well, I have







well, have you ever been faked out



feel like you`re in a stake-out,



a cook-out, barbequed chicken?



well, I have







come on, mama, get on the yo-yo



we`re all givin up down in the arroyo







have you ever been stranded



feel like you never landed,



a bandit, a merchant of Venice?



well, I have



well, have you even been tumbled



feel like you`re in a jungle,



a jingle, a town in New Jersey?



well, I have







come on, mama, get on the yo-yo



we`re all givin up down in the arroyo



(SAX SOLO)







well have you ever been hungry



feel like you`re gettin` ugly



ornery, and everybody`s greasy?



well, I have



well have you ever been zooey



feel like you`re David Bowie,



a truly unidentified person?



well, I have







come on, mama, get on the yo-yo



we`re all givin up down in the arroyo



(SAX SOLO)







(spoken)



...there is a possibility of ...



something running parallel...



what something is, it might be called



something other than what could be the same thing,



but uh, what could be the right thing



in other words, it might be a contigent-pository,



if what you are doing at the same time



that you are doing something else...







... let`s take, for example, if you were born on Lake Michigan...
