I been Norman Mailered, Maxwell Taylored. I been John O´Hara´d, McNamara´d. I been Rolling Stoned and Beatled till I´m blind.
I been Ayn Randed, nearly branded Communist, ´cause I´m left-handed. That´s the hand I use, well, never mind!
I been Phil Spectored, resurrected. I been Lou Adlered, Barry Sadlered. Well, I paid all the dues I want to pay. And I learned the truth from Lenny Bruce, And all my wealth won´t buy me health, So I smoke a pint of tea a day.
I knew a man, his brain was so small, He couldn´t think of nothing at all. He´s not the same as you and me. He doesn´t dig poetry. He´s so unhip that When you say Dylan, he thinks you´re talking about Dylan Thomas, Whoever he was.
The man ain´t got no culture, But it´s alright, ma, Everybody must get stoned.
I been Mick Jaggered, silver daggered. Andy Warhol, won´t you please come home? I been mothered, fathered, aunt and uncled, Been Roy Haleed and Art Garfunkeled. I just discovered somebody´s tapped my phone.
