Spent some time feelin' inferior[00:00:00]
Standin' in front of my mirror[00:00:06]
Combed my hair in a thousand ways[00:00:10]
But I came out lookin' just the same[00:00:15]
Daddy said "Son you better see the world[00:00:19]
I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to leave [00:00:24]
But remember one thing don't lose your head[00:00:28]
To a woman that'll spend your bread"[00:00:33]
So I got out[00:00:37]
Paris was a place you could hide away[00:00:44]
If you thought you didn't fit in[00:00:50]
French police wouldn't give me no peace [00:00:54]
Just claimed I was a nasty person[00:00:59]
Down along the Left Bank minding my own [00:01:03]
Was knocked down by a human stampede[00:01:08]
Got arrested for inciting a peaceful riot[00:01:12]
When all I wanted was a cup of tea[00:01:18]
I was accused[00:01:21]
Down in Rome I wasn't getting enought[00:01:35]
Of the things that keep a young man alive[00:01:42]
My body stunk but I kept my funk at a time[00:01:45]
When I was right out of luckGetting desperate indeed I was[00:01:51]
Looking like a tourist attraction[00:02:00]
Oh my dear I better get out of here[00:02:03]
Before the Vatican don't give no sanction I wasn't running oh no[00:02:08]
And on the Peking ferry I was feeling merry[00:02:26]
Sailing on my way back here[00:02:32]
I fell in love with a slit eyed lady[00:02:35]
By the light of an eastern moon[00:02:41]
Shanghai Lil never used the pill[00:02:45]
She claimed that it just ain't natural[00:02:50]
She took me up on deck and bit my neck[00:02:54]
People I was glad I found her oh yes so glad[00:03:00]
Wait a minute[00:03:16]
Well I firmly believe that I didn't need anyone but me[00:03:24]
I sincerely thought I was so complete[00:03:32]
Look how wrong you can be[00:03:38]
The women I've known I wouldn't let tie my shoe[00:03:41]
They wouldn't give you the time of day[00:03:47]
But the slit eyed lady knocked me off my feet[00:03:50]
God I was glad I found her[00:03:56]
And if there were words I could tell to you[00:04:00]
To help you on the way down the road[00:04:06]
Couldn't quote you no Dickens Shelley or Keats[00:04:09]
'Cause it's all been said before[00:04:15]
Make the best out of the bad just laugh it off[00:04:18]
Didn't have to come here anyway[00:04:24]
So remember every picture tells a story don't it [00:04:27]
Every picture tells a story don't it [00:04:32]
Every picture tells a story don't it [00:04:35]
Every picture tells a story don't it [00:04:38]
