What Do You Want from Life? (Live at Hammersmith Odeon, London, 1977)

What do you want from life?

To kidnap an heiress

Or threaten her with a knife?

What do you want from life?

To get cable TV

And watch it every night?

There you sit, a

Lump in your chair

Where do you sleep

And what do you wear

When you're sleeping

What do you want from life?

An Indian guru

To show you the inner light?

What do you want from life?

A meaningless love affair

With a girl that you met tonight?

How can you tell when you're doin' alright?

Does your bank account swell

While you're dreaming at night?

How do you know when you're really in love?

Do violins play when you're touching the one

That you're loving?

What do you want from life?

(What do you want from life?)

Someone to love

And somebody you can trust?

What do you want from life?

(What do you want from life?)

To try and be happy

While you do the nasty things you must?

What do you want from life?

What do you want from life?

What do you want from life?

What do you want from life?

Well, you can't have that, but

If you're an American citizen you are entitled to:

A heated kidney shaped pool

A microwave oven--don't watch the food cook

A Dyna-Gym--I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home

A kingsize Titanic unsinkable Molly Brown waterbed with polybendum

A foolproof plan and an airtight alibi

Real simulated Indian jewelry!

A Gucci shoetree!

A year's supply of antibiotics

A personally autographed picture of Randy Mantooth

And Bob Dylan's new unlisted phone number

A beautifully restored 3rd Reich swizzle stick

Rosemary's baby!

A dream date in kneepads with Paul Williams

A new Matador

A new mastadon

A Maverick

A Mustang

A Montego

A Merc Montclair

A Mark IV

A meteor

A Mercedes

An MG

Or a Malibu?

A Mort Moriarty

A Maserati

A Mac truck

A Mazda

A new Monza

Or a moped

A Winnebago-- Hell, a herd of Winnebago's, we're giving 'em away

Or how about a McCulloch chainsaw?

A Las Vegas wedding

A Mexican divorce

A solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot

Or

A baby's arm holding an apple?
