Things

Elsewhere in the Temple the llamas are gearing up To assault Tiger Mountain when the sun comes up

We sat around whispering in the candlelight Missing a game plan for the night Learnin' about the difference between North and South Keep your gun in your pocket and your tongue in your mouth

And you'll be doing it, doing the things Doing it, doing the things The thing you do in Denver when you're dead

A month is a Saturday – Wednesday's a week I saw the way you looked at her Charlie Brown – good grief She pulled you into the shadows and taught you how to love Patted you on the head and gave you a shove

And you were doing it, doing the things Doing it, doing the things Doing it, doing the things The thing you do in Denver when you're dead

The sexual exuberance of a concubine Checks my carburetor one more time With the passion of a thoroughbred and the sensitivity of a moose I rarely make a move unless I've got some proof

That I'll be doing it, doing the things Doing it, doing the things Doing it, doing the things The thing you do in Denver when you're dead

You live in Paris, I live in France Things are expensive when you live first class I'll learn Latin, you'll learn Greek And when you've got a minute, we'll meet in Crete

And we'll be doing it, doing the things Doing it, doing the things Doing it, doing the things The thing you do in Denver when you're dead The thing you do in Denver when you're dead Doing it in Denver when you're dead Doing it in Denver when you're dead Doing it in Denver when you're dead
