Bang Bang (Live)

She woke me up with a bang bang Lookin' over crossed eyed Had a big hunch that the world was a big lie When I got up, all the blood to my head I got so dizzy, fell back into my bed I went over to the wayside Lookin' for the high tide What will I find? Will I find, will I find, find All I saw was a man that had a hat that had a pompom He's been there for years Can someone tell me how long? Wake up to tell me Wake up to show me what I could not find Wake up to tell me Wake up to show me what I could not... You see this woman woke me up at a quarter to three And I didn't know it then but she put a spell on me Said I had to go down to where the cliffs meet the sea And meet an old man to present my plea So I headed way down to the big pier (big pier) To await and confront my big fear (my big fear) I wheeled around behind to my blind side To find an old man with a lime and a kind eye Said, "Mister, mister, with your beard so long Won't you be a saint and tell me just where I'm goin'" He pointed to a conch shell and then to the lime And said, "This is all I really need to get by" Wake up to tell me Wake up to show me what I could not find Wake up to tell me Wake up to show me what I could not... Hey (hey) mister man I know ya don't know who ya think I think I am But I can safely say That I shoulda been sleepin' Been sleepin', been sleepin', been seepin' The day away Hey, hey I said excuse me Have you got the time? He shrugged his shoulders, said, "Get a spine" Coconut hit me on the head jonesin' for a fig "I got booked last night, I need another fix, dig?" Yeah, just then I see a twinkle twinkle in the old man's eye And a wave tossed bottle is thrown to the sky I caught it on the rebound and landed with a soft sound I took out the message, put the bottle down Inside was an antidote to the spell And I read it to the man 'cause he couldn't read so well Said, "Don't worry about a thing ya know your path is true Just ease your mind, have a banana or two" Well goodness, goodness woe is me The man nearly flipped to learn that he was free But just before we left and started kickin' it (kickin' it) I picked up the bottle and star sixed it Kick kick, shuffle shuffle back to the beach With a tune on my lips and my quest in reach That woman come to see you with her song so sweet Say "Damn, let the poor sucker sleep" "Let him sleep" Wake up to tell me Wake up to show me what I could not find Wake up to tell me Wake up to show me what I could not find
