Stuck In My Head - The Envoy

The Envoy
by Warren Zevon

Nuclear arms in the Middle East
Israel is attacking the Iraqis
The Syrians are mad at the Lebanese
And Baghdad does whatever she please

Looks like another threat
To world peace
For the envoy

Things got hot in El Salvador
CIA got caught and couldn't do no more
He's got diplomatic immunity
He's got a lethal weapon that nobody sees

Looks like another threat
To world peace
For the envoy
Send the envoy
Send the envoy

Whenever there's a crisis
The President sends his envoy in
Guns in Damascus
Oh, Jerusalem

Nuclear arms in the Middle East
Israel is attacking the Iraqis
The Syrians are mad at the Lebanese
And Baghdad do whatever she please

Looks like another threat
To world peace
For the envoy
Send the envoy
Send the envoy

Send the envoy
Send for me
Send for me
Send for me
Send for me

Stuck in My Head 11.30.2010

Ain't That Pretty At All

Well, I've seen all there is to see

And I've heard all they have to say

I've done everything I wanted to do . . .

I've done that too

And it ain't that pretty at all

Ain't that pretty at all

So I'm going to hurl myself against the wall

'Cause I'd rather feel bad than not feel anything at all

You know, I just had a short vacation, Roy

Spent it getting a root canal

"Oh, how'd you like it?"

Well, it ain't that pretty at all

So I'm going to hurl myself against the wall

'Cause I'd rather feel bad than not feel anything at all

Gonna get a good running start and throw myself at the wall as hard as I can man

I've been to Paris

And it ain't that pretty at all

I've been to Rome

Guess what?

I'd like to go back to Paris someday and visit the Louvre Museum

Get a good running start and hurl myself at the wall

Going to hurl myself against the wall

'Cause I'd rather feel bad than feel nothing at all

And it ain't that pretty at all

Ain't that pretty at all
