0:18I could have a mansion on the hill
0:21I could lease a villa in Seville
0:25But it wouldn't be as nice as a summer in Ohio
0:29With a gay midget named Karl playing Tevye and Porgy
0:40I could wander Paris after dark
0:43Take a carriage ride through Central Park
0:46But it wouldn't be as nice as a summer in Ohio
0:50Where I'm sharing a room with a former stripper and her snake Wayne
0:57I could have a satchel full of dollar bills
1:03Cures for all the nations ills
1:06Pills to make a lion purr
1:12I could be in line to be the British queen
1:17Look like I was seventeen
1:20Still I'm certain I'd prefer to be going slowly batty
1:26Forty miles east of Cincinnati
1:32I could shove an ice pick in my eye
1:35I could eat some fish from last July
1:38But it wouldn't be as awful as a summer in Ohio
1:42Without cable hot water Vietnamese food or you
1:52I saw your book at a Border's in Kentucky
1:55Under a sign that said New and Recommended
1:59I stole a look at your picture on the inside sleeve
2:02And then I couldn't leave
2:07Richard who was with me got uncharacteristically quiet
2:11And he said All things considered
2:12I guess you don't have to buy it
2:14So I smile like Mona Lisa and I lay my Visa down
2:21He wants me he wants me but he ain't gonna get me
2:28I've found my guiding light I tell the stars each night
2:35Look at me look at him
2:39Son of a b**ch I guess I'm doing something right
2:46I finally got something right
2:55No it's not Nirvana but it's on the way
2:59I play Anita at the matinee
3:03Then I'll get on my knees and pray I can state in my next bio
3:09I'm never gonna go back to Ohio
3:14I could chew on tin foil for a spell
3:18I could get a root canal in hell
3:22But it wouldn't be as swell as this summer is gonna be
3:29'Cause the torture is just exquisite
3:33While I'm waiting for you to visit
3:36So hurry up schmuck get unstuck and get on the scene
3:44Love
3:44The midget the stripper Wayne the snake and Mrs Jamie Wellerstein
3:51That's me
I could have a mansion on the hill I could lease a villa in Seville But it wouldn't be as nice as a summer in Ohio With a gay midget named Karl playing Tevye and Porgy I could wander Paris after dark Take a carriage ride through Central Park But it wouldn't be as nice as a summer in Ohio Where I'm sharing a room with a former stripper and her snake Wayne I could have a satchel full of dollar bills Cures for all the nations ills Pills to make a lion purr I could be in line to be the British queen Look like I was seventeen Still I'm certain I'd prefer to be going slowly batty Forty miles east of Cincinnati I could shove an ice pick in my eye I could eat some fish from last July But it wouldn't be as awful as a summer in Ohio Without cable hot water Vietnamese food or you I saw your book at a Border's in Kentucky Under a sign that said New and Recommended I stole a look at your picture on the inside sleeve And then I couldn't leave Richard who was with me got uncharacteristically quiet And he said All things considered I guess you don't have to buy it So I smile like Mona Lisa and I lay my Visa down He wants me he wants me but he ain't gonna get me I've found my guiding light I tell the stars each night Look at me look at him Son of a b**ch I guess I'm doing something right I finally got something right No it's not Nirvana but it's on the way I play Anita at the matinee Then I'll get on my knees and pray I can state in my next bio I'm never gonna go back to Ohio I could chew on tin foil for a spell I could get a root canal in hell But it wouldn't be as swell as this summer is gonna be 'Cause the torture is just exquisite While I'm waiting for you to visit So hurry up schmuck get unstuck and get on the scene Love The midget the stripper Wayne the snake and Mrs Jamie Wellerstein That's me
