Weirdoes and Weirdoes
"I have never heard of The Eagles" -- DJG
There are weirdoes. There are weirdoes
I just thought I’d let you know.
I had first taste of them while watching pro football
Just a few short Sundays ago
It was my Uncle Larry
And the game had just begun.
Then he opened up his big mouth.
And we really had some fun.
He said, “I’ve been on this silly journey long enough
And I’m tellin’ you it’s been getting’ really rough.
I’ve been paying all these bills and lottery ain’t workin’ for me.
So take it easy
‘Cause love can be breezy.
You take it easy
‘Cause love can be breezy.”
A young couple argues.
I drove ‘em home last night.
They adopt every position.
And still they never get it right.
Meanwhile I’m just trying to make a little sense.
Been buying all my friends with all my Peter’s Pence.
Even memorized the phone book, sprung some conversation.,
Then finally left it all to chance.
My uncle says, “Listen, boy. I have loved.”
Then he punched me without a boxing glove.
He proceeds to the kitchen, groans, and grabs another beer (you have nothing to fear)
So take it easy
‘Cause love can be breezy.
You take it easy
It’s like livin’ the life, like livin’ the life, like livin’ the life.
There are weirdoes. There are weirdoes.
I don’t’ know about you but I could see it down the road.
They’ve assembled at the mirage in an effort of attraction
But they’re still very much alone.
There’s the Sunday school teacher whose been given life to go.
And pitcher who got his blood work that came up point one O
Then I was really shaken when I finally figured out that there
Existed such a low
And the idiot says, “Kid if you think that’s bad, well then you should see.
What this whole frickin' planet has done to me..
Keep on lookin’ for that slither of gold in this hunk of debris."
But I’m a brilliant man
I’m doin’ the best I can.
Hell, I’m a Rutgers Law Vo-Tech Man
I’m doin’ the best I can.
