Take off your old black shoes
Come have you heard the news?
Have you been hittin' the booze?


Your politics have all gone sour
Well, I see you getting sicker by the hour
Take a look now it's raining in my shower


The sun is shining and it's a beautiful night
Take a look at that, do you wanna take a bite?
If I make my poem rhyme will you think it's...
Will you think it's strange? Oh alright


Do you know or
do you wanna know?
Do you know or
do you wanna know?


Tell your friends it's the brainy hour
Here, I got a face that you can scour
Then drive your car all over my flowers


And maybe if we call a truce
I'll take your head out of the noose
and let your shoulders dangle loose


Do you know or
do you wanna know?
Do you know or
do you wanna know?
