06. Great Big Stupid World

Our Recollections
by Randy Stonehill



 

 

Well, we worship at the shroud of Elvis, and we're waiting for that money from Ed McMahon,
And we're drinking from the Perrier fountain of youth while we follow what the daily horoscope's saying,
Taking lethal doses of MTV, delving into pet psychiatry,
Trying to treat cancer with a fruit juice cure and waiting for the Beatles' reunion tour.

'Cause it's a great, big, stupid world, and we're feeling kinda queasy as it turns around,
Great, big, stupid world, and we're never really sure if we're up or down,
We're on a dirt clod out in space; where it stops, nobody knows,
If Jesus came back today they'd try to book him on the Oprah Winfrey show,
'Cause it's a great, big, stupid...great, big, stupid...great, big, stupid world.

Well, we're hot on the trail of big foot, and we're wearing the crystals to feel the power
We're hoping that the creatures from outer space come to set us free in that final hour,
Trying to tell the future from the lumps on our heads, getting melanoma from our tanning beds,
Channeling Houdini with Shirley McLain, and trying to figure out what the dolphins are saying.

'Cause it's a great, big, stupid world, and we're feeling kinda queasy as it turns around,
Great, big, stupid world, and we're never really sure if we're up or down,
We're on a dirt clod out in space; where it stops, nobody knows,
If Jesus came back today they'd try to book him on the Oprah Winfrey show,
'Cause it's a great, big, stupid...great, big, stupid...great, big, stupid world.

Well, it's a great, (great) big, (big) stupid world,
Dumb-dumb-da-dumb-dumb,
Baby, it's a stupid world.

It's a great, big, stupid...great, big, stupid...great, big, stupid, world.

Well, we're studying the National Enquirer,
Is it true Sonny Bono is the antichrist?
We debate if TV wrestling is really a sport while we're testing rock & roll, and its effect on mice,
Bonding with our little computer screens, getting anorexic on our Lean Cuisines,
Turning plastic surgeons into millionaires so everybody finally gets to look like Cher.

It's a great, big, stupid world, and we're feeling kinda queasy as it turns around,
Great, big, stupid world, and we're never really sure if we're up or down.

It's a great, (great) big, (big) stupid world,
Dumb-dumb-da-dumb-dumb,
Baby, it's a stupid world,
Great, (great) big, (big) stupid world,
Dumb-dumb-da-dumb-dumb,
Baby, it's a stupid world,
Great, (great) big, (big) stupid world,
Dumb-dumb-da-dumb-dumb,
(scat)
Great, (great) big, (big) stupid world,
Dumb-dumb-da-dumb-dumb.

Talk about a stupid...
Talk about a stupid...
Talk about a stupid world,
Talk about a stupid...
Talk about a stupid...
Talk about a stupid world,
