Tickle The Truth

She complained, you look different, yeah, but I'm keeping my name
 You're not drinking the usual, I said it all tastes the same
 She fled, you smell like L.A., yeah, but check out my new frames
 You know these cool shades make you look bitching
 Oh, she split from our table mumbling remember to tip
 I had a twenty in ready but I said I might skip
 Some people act funny when you're just trying to be hip
 Oh, spend a little time outside the kitchen
 Magnificent miles, trying out this new walk
 And people are watching, it's like stepping on chalk
 Learning curves behind like a memory stalks
 But in all it's an innocent mission
 She rang late last night, said that wasn't you, was it?
 I said all colors of money are fit for deposit
 Half naked right now, I've got soup in the closet
 Oh, it's sometimes with words I'm just fishing
 Should I come over? It sounds like you need me
 I said, hey, that's funny, you sound like my TV
 Just try this thing once, it'll make life so easy
 And even puppies come under suspicion
 Then a lover came knocking, I opened the door
 With an apple in my hand, she said, what's that core?
 It's the past and the future, but I shouldn't say more
 And that's just my radio hissing
 Well, I know you too well and I know you're no villain
 I said, don't look now 'cause I'm ripping off Dylan
 What you see is a little crusty, the real thing's the fillin?
 The sound bite from a verbal beautician
 All the jokers in this world, they're swarming like bees
 Catch one to the head, make you fall to your knees
 Lenny Bruce was a prophet in the 1960's
 Two shows at tonight's inquisition
 And drifted and dreaming, lost in the bed
 Body's ups and down are just food for the head
 It's front page and French fries or the funny pages instead
 We tickle the truth into submission
 All in all it's an innocent mission
 Just tickle the truth into submission
 And tickle the truth into submission
