There's a dance hall there

Where the sick folks go

Like the olden days

On the Barbary coast

There's a barefoot child

Playing in the rain

You can sell your wares

Even if they're hard

In the great bazaar

Or the parking lot

'Cause it takes a while

To know who to blame

I might have a taste

'Cause the first one's free

And the checkout girls

Got a thing for me

And they're both as sweet

As the day is the long

I don't wanna feel stuck baby

I just wanna get drunk before noon

I don't mind my head

When there's room to dream

Feel like Paul Gauguin

Painting breadfruit trees

In some far off place

Where I don't belong

Tried to lose myself

In the primitive

In Yosemite

Like John Muir did

But his eyes were blue

And mine are red and raw

'Cause the modern world

Is a sight to see

It's a stimulant

It's pornography

It takes all my will

Not to turn it off

I don't want you to feel sad baby

I take everything back I swear I do

'Cause once all the friends I had

Have used me up and left

I bet you hang around

I bet you'll hang around awhile
