Talkin' World War lll Blues

Some time ago a crazy dream came to me I dreamt I was walkin' into World War Three I went to the doctor the very next day To see what kinda words he could say He said it was a bad dream I wouldn't worry 'bout it none, though They're dreams and they're only in your head. I said, "Hold it, Doc, a World War pa*sed through my brain". He said, "Nurse, get your pad, this boy's insane". He grabbed my arm, I said "Ouch".

Well, the whole thing started at 3 o'clock fast It was all over by quarter past I was down in the sewer with some little lover When I peeked out from a manhole cover Wondering who turned the lights on. Well, I got up and walked around And up and down the lonesome town I stood a-wondering which way to go I lit a cigarette on a parking meter And walked on down the road It was a normal day. Well, I rung the fallout shelter bell And leaned my head and I gave a yell "Give me a string bean I'm a hungry man" A shortgun fired and away I ran I don't blame them too much though They didn't know me. Down at the corner by a hot-dog stand I seen a man I said "Howdy friend, I guess there's just us two" He screamed a bit and away he flew Thought it was a Communist. Well, I spied me a girl and before she could leave "Let's go and play Adam and Eve" I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin' When she said, "Hey man, you crazy or sumpin' You see what happened last time they started". Well, I seen a Cadillac window uptown And there was nobody aroun' I got into the driver's seat And I drove down
