I'm a Russian Jew American

Impersonating African Jamaican What I want to be is an Indian

I'm gonna be a cowboy in the end

I guess I bought a gun

because it impresses all the litle girls I see

and then they all wanna sleep with me

Oh whre did we disappear

into the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end

Where these people who impersonate our friends

Say come again come again come again

Into the dark Italian underground

with disco lights and disco sounds and skinny

girls who drink champagne

Then they take me on their knees again,

and pull me up and out the door

past railway cars and tranny-whores

And mornings spreading out across the feathered thighs of angels

Oh were did we disappear to

the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end

Will they try to get you out to pull you in

And all these people, they've been? come again

In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue

In 1493 he came home across the deep blue sea

In 1494 he did it with the girl next door

In 1495 he barely made it out alive

In 1964 ???? busting out the door

In 1970 some people got their hands on me

Now I am the king of everything

I am the king of nothing now

I am the king of everything

I am the king of nothing

Oh where did we disappear

to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end Where these people

who impersonate our friends Say come again come again come

come again Oh where did we disappear

to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end When they try to push you out to get you in

and all these people who impersonate our friends Say come again come again come

come again come again come again
