Kids and planes and runway strikes Flashy pimps and family fights Spotted dogs and bloodshot eyes I, space captain, laughs and tries To understand the scheme of things Just in time the scene has changed The bus is here, bring the beer Shamans reading Shakespeare Movie makers, the boobie shakers And sexy airplane ticket takers Union members, Leo Fender's pride and joy Electric toy Teachers and learners, incense burners Religious leaders, chronic leaders Thieves and pirates are all around It's a hippie commune momma found A life in time won't help the earth Rock pop correspondent's feelings But old keys and Limeys Curtain climbers, stones and featured dominos I know which way the wind blows Stolen cola, no one knows The shadow dude, but it's still a shady clue, 'Cause I love her and she loves you Just myself and forty friends, in the name of Cocker power I'll get on the road again, with mad dogs and Englishmen
