I Got A School Boy Heart, A Novelist Eye

Stout Sailor's Legs And A License To Fly

I Came With Nomad Feet And Some Wandering Toes

That Walk Up My Longboard And Hang Off The Nose



I Suppose The Need To Focus Never Arose

So Something Like A Swiss Army Knife, That's My Life

Frankenstein Had Nothing On This Body Of Mine

The Villagers Still Flockin' To See, To See Me

Breakin' Free, Breakin' Free



"Cause I Got A School Boy Heart, Novelist Eye

Stout Sailor's Legs And A License To Fly

I Got A Bartender Ear And A Beachcomber Style

Piratical Nerve And A Vaudevillian Style



I-yi-yi-yi-yi, I-yi-yi-yi-yi



I Suspect I Died In Some Cosmic Shipwreck

With All Hands Spread All Over The Deck,--what The Heck.

Then Some Kind Of Unseen And Unscrupulous Mind

Began To Pick Up What He Could Find, Added Ice

Shook Me Twice, Rolled The Dice



Now I Got A School Boy Heart, A Novelist Eye

Stout Sailor's Legs And A License To Fly

I Got A Native Tongue From Way Down South

It Sits In The Cheek Of My Gulf Coastal Mouth



I Got A School Boy Heart, A Novelist Eye

Stout Sailor's Legs And A License To Fly

I Came With Nomad Feet And Some Wandering Toes

That Glide Up My Longboard And Hang Off The Nose



I-yi-yi-yi-yi, I-yi-yi-yi-yi,........
