"you know I was talking to my friend desdemona the other day she
6
Runs this space station and bake shop down near boomtown. she told
7
Me that human beings are flawed individuals. the cosmic bakers
8
Took us out of the oven a little too early. and that's the
9
Reason we're as crazy as we are and I believe it."
10
"take for example when you go to the movies these days, you know.
11
They try to sell you this jumbo drink, 8 extra ounces of watered
12
Down cherry coke for an extra 25 cents. I don't want it.
13
I don't want that much organziation in my life.
14
I don't want other people thinking for me.
15
I want my junior mints. where did the junior mints go in the
16
Movies. I don't want a 12 lb. nestle's crunch for 25 dollars. i
17
Want junior mints."
18
"we need more fruitcakes in this world and less bakers!
19
We need people that care! I'm mad as hell! and I don't want to
20
Take it anymore!"
21
Chorus:
22
Fruitcakes in the kitchen (fruitcakes in the kitchen)
23
Fruitcakes on the street (fruitcakes on the street)
24
Struttin' naked through the crosswalk
25
In the middle of the week
26
Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)
27
Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)
28
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us
29
Paradise, lost and found
30
Paradise, take a look around
31
I was out in california where I hear they have it all
32
They got riots, fires, mud slides
33
They've got sushi in the mall
34
Water bars, brontasaurs, chinese modern lust
35
Shake and bake life with the quake
36
The secret's in the crust
37
Chorus:
38
Fruitcakes in the kitchen (fruitcakes in the kitchen)
39
Fruitcakes on the street (fruitcakes on the street)
40
Struttin' naked through the crosswalk

In the middle of the week
42
Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)
43
Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)
44
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us
45
--spoken:
46
"speakin' of fruitcakes, how 'bout the government?
47
Your tax dollars at work."
48
We lost our martian rocket ship
49
The high paid spokesman said
50
Looks like that silly rocket ship
51
Has lost it's cone shaped head
52
We spent 90 jillion dollars trying to get a look at mars
53
I hear universal laughter ringing out among the stars
54
Chorus:
55
Fruitcakes in the galaxy (fruitcakes in the galaxy)
56
Fuitcakes on the earth (fruitcakes on the earth)
57
Struttin' naked towards eternity
58
We've been that way since birth
59
Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)
60
Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)
61
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us
62
--spoken:
63
"religion! religion! oh, there's a thin line between saturday
64
Night and sunday morning. here we go now.
65
Alright, alter boys."
66
Mea culpa mea culpa mea maxima culpa
67
Mea culpa mea culpa mea maxima culpa
68
Where's the church, who took the steeple
69
Religion is in the hands of some crazy-ass people
70
Television preachers with bad hair and dimples
71
The god's honest truth is it's not that simple
72
It's the buddhist in you, it's the pagan in me
73
It's the muslim in him, she's catholic ain't she?
74
It's the born again look it's the wasp and the jew
75
Tell me what's goin on, I ain't gotta clue
76
--spoken:
77
"now here comes the big ones. relationships! we all got 'em, we
78
All want 'em. what do we do with 'em?
79
Here we go, I'll tell ya."
80
She said you gotta do your fair share
81
Now cough up half the rent
82
I treat my body like a temple
83
You treat yours like a tent
84
But the right word at the right time
85
May get me a little hug
86
That's the difference between lightning
87
And a harmless lightnin' bug
88
Chorus:
89
Fruitcakes in the kitchen (fruitcakes in the kitchen)

93
Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)
94
Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)
95
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us
96

97
"the future. captain's log, stardate two thousand and something."
98
We're seven years from the millenium
99
That's a science fiction fact
100
Stanley kubrick and his buddy hal
101
Now don't look that abstract
102
So I'll put on my bob marley tape
103
And practice what I preach
104
Get jah lost in the reggae mon
105
As I walk along the beach
106
Stay in touch with my insanity really is the only way

108
Have a very fruitful day
109
Hey.
