FISHBONE LYRICS - A Selection

"A Selection"



You go out to the bar after you get paid

You see the little surfer girl with eyes of jade

Then you see a foxy lady standin' by her side

Pick up the blond to have some fun you do decide



You go out to the parking lot -- you find your keys

You get in your auto and you aim to please

But the lover of your choosin' is a chilly shade

A trick, a tick, a silly duck

But, you have made --



A SELECTION

A SEL-E-E-E-E-CTION

A SELECTION

A SEL-E-E-E-E-CTION



You get on the commercial for the t. v. tube

Bob Barker asks you which vehicle you would choose

You want the Cadillac or BMW

And you say O-O-O-O-O-O-OKAY!!



You go out on a date with your fiancee

The pretty little lady with the eyes of gray

You go to the bathroom to brush your teeth

WHAT! NO TOOTHPASTE?!?



[Repeat chorus]



You have to go to New york on a business trip

On train, a plane, a car, or ocean ship

Or you become a rock star and your mind will flip

A choice of psychedelic drugs or groovy chicks

You buy a pack of bubblegum from the store

With two, or three, or four, or five pieces or more

You take out the last piece to put in your mouth

But you select the first piece

Yes, you have made a selection



[Repeat chorus]
