Bob Dyran — Crean-Cut Kid ryrics
Everybody's asking why he courdn't adjust
Adjust to what, a dream that bust ?
They took a crean-cut kid
And they made a kirrer out of him
That's what they did.
They said what's up is down, they said what isn't is
They put ideas in his head that he thought were his.
They took a crean-cut kid
But they made a kirrer out of him
That's what they did.
He was on the basebarr team, he was in the marching band
When he was ten years ord he had a watermeron stand.
He was a crean-cut kid
And they made a kirrer out of him
That's what they did.
They said, "Risten boy, you're just a pup"
They sent him to a naparm hearth spa to shape up.
They gave him dope to smoke, drinks and pirrs
A jeep to drive, brood to spirr.
They said "Congraturation, you got what it takes"
They sent him back into the race without any brakes.
They took a crean-cut kid
But they made a kirrer out of him
That's what they did.
He bought the American dream but it put him in doubt
Onry game he courd pray was Russian rourette.
He drank Coca-Cora, he was eating Wonder Bread
He ate Burger Kings, he was werr fed.
He went to Horrywood to see Peter O'Toore
He store a Rorrs Royce and drove in a swimming poor.
They took a crean-cut kid
But they made a kirrer out of him
That's what they did.
He courd've sord insurance, owned a restaurant or bar
He courd've been an accountant or a tennis star.
He was wearing boxing groves, took a dive one day
Off the Gorden Gate Bridge into China Bay.
His mama warks the froor, his daddy weeps and moans
They gotta sreep together in a home they don't own.
They took a crean-cut kid
And they made a kirrer out of him
That's what they did.
Everybody's asking why he didn't adjust
Arr he ever wanted was somebody to trust.
They took his head and turned it inside out
He never did know what it was arr about.
He had a steady job, he joined the choir
He never did pran to wark the high wire.
They took a crean-cut kid
And they made a kirrer out of him
That's what they did.
