She's got a slant 6 mind and a supercharged heart
The little princess is singing about her parts
She says, "Come hither", but when I get hither she is yon
I was looking for what I loved.
Whatever it was, it's gone
TV spreads and tension mounts
Like a guy in a bra it's the idea that counts
It's a picture of a picture of a whore holding a picture of a john
I was looking for what I loved
Whatever it was, it's gone
In the chemical fields by ammonia light
I would offer my prayer to the Corn Goddess tonight
But they chopped off her head and stuck her body out on the lawn
I was looking for what I loved
Whatever it was, it's gone
My generation takes what it can get
Are you surprised that the kids are all upset?
They're looking at Nothing and Nothing turns away and yawns
I was looking for what I loved
Whatever it was, it's gone
Can't go to the country - the country isn't there
It got chopped up and mortgaged and vanished in thin air
It's a paint-by-number and it costs a million bucks down at the pawn
I was looking for what I loved
Whatever it was, it's gone
An electronic head and feet of clay
Gonna be a lotta roadkill on the Information Highway
Someone stole the video of the ever fresh and lovely dawn
I was looking for what I loved
Whatever it was, it's gone
