Mzungu Arudi Ulaya Mwa Frika Apate Uhuru

Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Down in Kenya where the Masai roam
And the grass grows tall on the veldt
In our old colonial home
We drank our bitters while the empire fell
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone
Leave my monkey alone

(Warren Zevon & Jorge Calderon)
Well, I'm gone to Detox Mansion
Way down on Last Breath Farm
I've been rakin' leaves with Liza
Me and Liz clean up the yard
Left my home in Music City
In the back of a limousine
Now I'm doin' my own laundry
And I'm getting those clothes clean
Growin' fond of Detox Mansion
And this quiet life I lead
But I'm dying to tell my story
For all my friends to read

(Warren Zevon)
Shadows falling in the noonday sun
Blue feeling to the maximum
Look what happens when you love someone
And they don't love you
The heartache
The risk you run
The chance you take
When you love someone
And the sorrow
For the lonely one
When the heartache comes
Never thought I'd be alone like this
Guess I should have been a realist
That's the trouble with relationships

(Warren Zevon)
Was it something I did
In another life?
I try and try
But nothing comes out right
Bad Karma
Killing me by degrees
I took a wrong turn
On the astral plane
Now I keep on thinkin'
My luck is gonna change
Someday
Bad Karma
It's uphill all the way
I can't run, Can't hide
Can't get away
It must be my destiny
The same thing happens to me every day
Bad Karma
Coming after me
Bad Karma

(Warren Zevon, Peter Buck, Mike Mills, Bill Berry)
Well, he's trying to survive up on Mulholland Drive
He's got the phone in the car in his hand
Everbody's trying to be a friend of mine
Even a dog can shake hands
He wants twenty percent
'Cause he knew you back when
Now they all want a piece if the band
Everybody's trying to be a friend of mine
Even a dog can shake hands

(Warren Zevon and J. D. Souther)
I woke up this morning and fell out of bed
Trouble waiting to happen
Should've quit while I was ahead
Trouble waiting to happen
I turned on the news to the Third World War
Opened up the paper to World War IV
Just when I thought it was safe to be bored
Trouble waiting to happen
Trouble waiting to happen
The mailman brought me the Rolling Stone

(Warren Zevon)
If you're all alone
And you need someone
Call me up
And I'll come running
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
If it's still the past
That makes you doubt
Darlin', that was then
And this is now
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
And I'll never make you sad again
Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I promise that I'll never make you cry
Let's let bygones
Be forgotten
Reconsider me

(Warren Zevon)
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
From Youngstown, Ohio, Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini
A lightweight contender, like father like son
He fought for the title with Frias in Vegas
And he put him away in round number one
Hurry home early - hurry on home

(Warren Zevon)
I was born in '63
Got a little job in the factory
I don't know much about Kennedy
I was too busy working in the factory
We got a kid that's two, we got another one due
We get by the best we can do
The factory's got a good medical plan
And, cousin, I'm a union man
Saying, Yes sir, no sir, yes sir, no sir, yes sir, no sir - Work !
I was born in Mechanicsburg

(Warren Zevon)
Every day I get up in the morning and go to work
And do my job-whatever
I need some
Sentimental Hygiene
Everybody's at war these days
Let's have a mini-surrender
I need some Sentimental hygiene
Everybody's had to hurt about it
No one wants to live without it
It's so hard to find it
Sentimental hygiene
Every night I come home exhausted
From trying to get along
I need some
