I saw a man at a concert
wearing shiny stones.
He had some funky sandals
and wore some strange cologne.
"I want to be like him," I thought,
filled with love and art.
Tomorrow I will buy some beads.
Tomorrow I will start.
When I can,
I'll grow a beard
and grow my hair real long.
I'll learn to play some mean guitar
and write some rockin' songs.
I'll take a trip to Africa
and learn to play the drums.
I'll wear some sandals on my feet
and rings on both my thumbs.
And then I went to work one day
My father's work, that is.
He said he'd teach me business,
he'd school me in "The Bizz."
I met a man named Frank McGee,
wearing a fine suit.
He was running a large business
and making lots of loot.
"I want to be like him," I thought.
I'll wear a center part.
Tomorrow I will buy a tie.
Tomorrow I will start.
When it comes,
I'll shave my beard
and keep my hair real short.
I'll learn to play the stock market
and build a tennis court.
I'll take a trip to Switzerland
and learn about their banks.
If I can't find the proper suit
I'll borrow one of Frank's.
So now I'm stuck deciding,
is it sandals or a suit?
I have to ask the question
Is it love and art or loot?
I'm thinking I am half and half.
I need them both a little.
In terms of sandals or a suit,
I'm kind of in the middle.
I need to find some common ground,
to find some sort of link.
I'm thinking I might wear them both
and see what people think.
