"Beginning Of A Great Adventure"


	It might be great to have a kid that I could kick around
	a little me to fill up with my thought
	A little me or he or she to fill up with my dreams
	a way of saying life is not a loss

	I'd keep the tyke away from school and tutor him myself
	keep him from the poison of crowd
	But then again pristine isolation might not be the best idea
	it's not good trying to immortalize yourself

	Beginning Of A Great Adventure
	Beginning Of A Great Adventure

	Why stop at one, I might have ten, a regular TV brood
	I'd breed a little liberal army in the wood
	Just like these redneck lunatics I see at the local bar
	with their tribe of mutant inbred piglets with cloven hoovers

	I'd teach them how to plant a bomb, start a fire, play guitar
	and if they catch a hunter, shoot him in the nuts
	I'd try to be as progressive as I could possibly be
	as long as I didn't have to try too much

	Beginning Of A Great Adventure
	Beginning Of A Great Adventure

	Susie, Jesus, Bogart, Sam Leslie, Jill and Jeff
	Rita, Winny, Andy, Fran and Jet
	Boris, Bono, Lucy, Ethel Bunny, Reg and Tom
	that's a lot of named to try not to forget

	Carrie, Marlon, No and Steve La Rue and Jerry Lee
	Eggplant, Rufus, Dummy, Star and The Glob
	I'd need a damn computer to keep track of all these names
	I hope this baby thing don't go too far

	I hope it's true what my wife said to me
	I hope it's true what my wife said to me
	Hey I hope it's true what my wife said to me

	She says, baby, it's the Beginning of a Great Adventure
	Baby, it's the Beginning of a Great Adventure
	take a look

	It might be fun to have a kid that I could kick around
	create in my own image like a god
	I'd raise my own pallbearers to carry me to my grave
	and keep me company when I'm a wizened toothless clod

	Some gibbering old fool sitting all alone drooling on his shirt
	some senile old fart playing in the dirt
	It might be fun to have a kid I could pass something on to
	something better than rage, pain, anger and hurt

	I hope it's true what my wife said to me
	I hope it's true what my wife said to me
	I hope it's true what my wife said to me
	She says Lou, it's the Beginning of a Great Adventure
	Lou, Lou, Lou, Beginning of a Great Adventure
	She says baby, how you call your lover boy
	Sylvia, quite you call your lover man
