Midnight Cabaret

I took off my clothes,
 threw 'em down to the floor
 and then I left behind my wallet
 and walked out my front door
 I was standing stark naked
 right there in the street
 With nothing covering my chest
 and nothing covering my feet
 Until the old lady screamed
 "somebody call the police...
 Lock him up, lock up the super freak"
 This ain't no two bit town or midnight cabaret
 And then the jury looked down and said
 "son what have you got to say?"
 I'd rather look like a fool
 than go my whole damn life afraid
 Well, people leaving for work, they just sat
 still in their cars
 By the way everybody was acting you
 would have thought I was armed
 But I was just feeling back to nature,
 like I could finally be free
 'Til the police car pulled up and said
 "son, come with me"
 I said "officer, I'm tired of being
 judged by my looks.
 People keep putting down the cover and
 never reading the book"
 You can't bury a brand name
 with you in your grave
 and if you walk around naked,
 think of the cash you'll save.
 You can pack up your suitcase
 in two seconds flat
 And you won't have to worry
 'cause everybody will know if you're fat
 May the wind always be with you
 at your back
 And may you never be afraid
 of anything you lack
