lyrics

THERE IS NO SPOON

VC:
Did you ever have a dream and you know it was from eating too much pizza?
Ya gotta hear this guy. He’s out of the box. Or he’s in the box. Or he’s got no box.

JT:
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no… spoon!

VC (speaking in tongues):
Shanderow becomb da da Beshindera mo-sow
Row kay ditty beshandera masewn nada masaah
Oh benebeshideray, beshideray, beshideray, baeshaa

JT:
There is no spoon.
I said there is no spoon.
There is no…
There is no spoon!
There is no!

VC:
Would you be interested in going out on a date with me with me tonight?
I said hummadah, hummadah, hummadah, hummadah.
My God! I was seeing a lot of different things but I didn’t see that!
Peter, there are fish. Go!
The world thought when Christ came he was coming in a Jaguar…

Rah-koot-tallah basandorrow beau-shoe - I take the spirit of charge over you in the name of Jesus…
(Bubbly mouth sound) - He kept on doin’ that. I said, “OK”. I said listen to me.

But let’s go to the-a perfume box that was broken over Christ’s foot.

Gimme that old time religion. Gimme that old time relig…
And that’s what they got!

HOT DOG JESUS!
Man’s sloppy - a- goppy love.

Warp ah ah hum, Warp ah ah hum, Warp ah ah hum

Honey, who’s at the door? It’s Sakeeass honey.
What does that rat want? Shut the door in his face!
No honey. No, no, listen…

Let Peter out. Let Peter out!

Touch it.
Feel it.
Smell it.

In my prayer time I’m not - I no axe out with nobody and I got no axe to grind.

And that angel grabbed his thigh and put him in a limp mode.

Now, I personally don’t believe Christ was talking about mountains.
And I tell ya for you prophetic type out there I was seeing M&M everywhere I went.
And opinions to me are like armpits. Everybody has one.
You white wash Seplacas.
Ah, get those Hebrew boys.
But my God I’m - I’m eating the husk of the pigs. But when I was in my father’s house.
I’ve gotta be a jumper cable to bring them out of the dung heap of yesterday.
It was impossible until Jesus Croast…

(Burp)

I just ate. I’m sorry.
For Christ’s body in- indelibly marked in my mind and it’s unforgettable!
I’m gleaming that off of Jackie Gleason: “Me and my big mouth.”

Looking.
Talking.
Smellin’ like Jesus Christ.

No longer swinging the sword and not hitting the arbject.

Operation ketchup!
Operation ketchup!
Operation ketchup!
Operation ketchup!
Operation ketchup!
Operation ketchup!

Pseudo Beefheart:
Consume the position.

JT:
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.
There is no spoon.

VC:
If there’s one thing I hate. I hate the religious spirit.

Randerlbow masheally anderable becoup!
