Songwriters: Mccrea, John;

Dis empowered, the scattering flock

Dances in a fever at the castle rock

Dust-devil cypress and ripening fruit

Ascending quick into the author's bathroom



Fawn, Jo and Tootsie are out on a wire

Lettuce-toothed junkies all full of desire



Meanwhile, Rick James takes her nude

And there's nothing I can do

Meanwhile, Rick James takes her nude



And there's nothing I can do

And there's nothing I can say to you

I've got a lot of work to do

I guess I'll leave it up to you



Uninvited, we'll stay if we want

Searching through your closets for your grandfather's 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 nude

And there's nothing I can do

Meanwhile, Rick James takes her nude

And there's nothing I can do



(Meanwhile, Rick James takes her nude)

And there's nothing I can say to you

(Meanwhile, Rick James takes her nude)



And there's nothing I can do

And there's nothing I can say to you

I've got a lot of work to do

I guess I'll leave it up to you
