Do You

Hey, you say you like the way
The cowboys tip their hats and say
"How's it goin' ma'am?"

But you're never quite clear
If their glares are sincere
Or really only just second hand

To you it's all roses, it's a lavender haze
The man is a marvel
But it's a shame about his brains

But that's okay
You say, "he's got straight teeth
And it's good sex"

You look to the sky
You look to the man
You claim innocence
And not to understand
Or do you
Do you

There's a big man wearing a white suit
And patent leather shoes
He wants to take his monkeys
To see the kids at the zoo

'Cause the gypsy on the corner said
"Hey, mister you can't lose"
And it's your first day at the track
You feel that heat on your back
We all want to find a way to beat the system
Find some rhythm in the madness

Get down on your knees and pray
Say, "I'll do whatever you want, God
Just let me have my way"
Well will you
Will you

Come on all you merry men
Rally your cry
Dance with the devil
For tomorrow we'll surely
Hey, hey, blow the men down

You with all your cigarettes
And cool stares filled with blank glares
And loaded regrets

Just like the girls today with nothing to say
No more pigtails and pony rides
They're sophisticated, they sip on lattes
And have their eyes on a bigger prize

We shake our fists and say
"Well good golly we're mad
That God kills children with our very own hands"
We claim innocence and not to understand
Or do we
Do we

Come on all you merry men
Rally your cry
Dance with the devil
For tomorrow we'll surely
Hey, hey, blow the men down

Blow the men down
Hey
