Well, we live in a trailer
at the edge of town
You never see us

'cause we don't come around.
We got twenty five rifles
just to keep

the population down.
But we need you now,
and that's why

I'm hangin' 'round.
So you be good to me
and I'll be good to you,

And in this land of conditions
I'm not above suspicion
I won't attack you,

but I won't back you.

Well, it's so good to be here,

asleep on your lawn.
Remember your guard dog?
Well, I'm afraid

that he's gone.
It was such a drag
to hear him

whining all night long.
Yes, that was me with the doves,
setting them free

near the factory
Where you built your computer,
love.

I hope you get the connection,
'cause I can't take
the rejection

I won't deceive you,
I just don't believe you.


Well, I'm a barrel of laughs,
with my carbine on
I keep 'em hoppin',

till my ammunition's gone.
But I'm still not happy,
I feel like

there's something wrong.
I got the revolution blues,
I see bloody fountains,

And ten million dune buggies
comin' down the mountains.
Well, I hear that Laurel Canyon

is full of famous stars,
But I hate them worse than lepers
and I'll kill them

in their cars.
