Vagabonds of the Western World
Mama Nature said "It's murder what you've done" I sent you forth my brightest world Now it's nearly gone Birds and bees Been telling me You can't see The forest for the trees You cover up your lies With sympathies And I got no solutions To your persecution Mama Nature said "I can't believe it's true" I gave you life and food for thought Look what did you do You're killing my rivers Drowning my baby streams Day by day by day by day I hear them scream I'm so disillusioned I'm so disillusioned Mama Nature said "You're guilty of this crime" Now it's not just a matter of fact But just a matter of time Cruel will be the vengeance So savage is the deed that's done And I've got no solutions To your own pollutions

The hero he rode a white horse Across the desert to where his woman was He'd been riding for four days When he saw the tower where she was locked In the moonlight he left his old steed Near the drawbridge that he crossed And by way of a rope ladder He tip-toed to where his woman was If I recall you're the actor Who followed the stars Searching for The lost city of Mars Hoping time would heal the scars Knowing fate held no bars Are you the one That I think you are? Are you the hero or are you the madman? The madman climbed The steeple spire "Go higher" said the crowd From down below "But...the world's on fire" cried the madman From the steeple spire "You're a liar" cried the crown From down below The madman climbed the steeple spire And let a crystal ball tear Fall on the crown From down below If I recall you're the actor Who took to the stage Set the world ablaze With your anger and your rage With every new leaf You turned and wrote a new page Cleverly concealing Your real age Those that knew you Were always quite amazed Are you the one Who can take this praise? Are you the hero or are you the madman? "You're the only one" "who can save us" Said the wizard "Or all is lost"

These words I wrote, play and sing to you Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you For this is a song for while I'm away To say all the things I'd love to say You are my life, my everything, you're all I have You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true You're all I have Please heed me now these words I have to say Now I'm headed for the border You see this song it ends right at the start I swore when I was younger No one would win my heart And far away hills look greener still But soon they'll all slip away It's then I'll be returning And I'll be coming home to stay You are my life, my everything, you're all I have You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true You're all I have Please heed me now these words I have to say

Señorita took off her bobby socks She said she's gonna wear a skirt that shocks She's pulling out all the stops To get her Randolph back again Meanwhile Randolph, he's back at the ranch He's getting ready for tonight's song and dance He doesn't know he doesn't stand a chance His last affair will be his last romance The señorita will be there waiting Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me And underneath the Latin moonlight They danced and seen a falling star in flight With the strum of guitars, she held him tight She wants her Randolph back again Meanwhile it's worthwhile for Randolph to wait 'Til he gets the nerve then he won't hesitate He doesn't know but he's just bit the bait He just asked if he could make a date The señorita will be there waiting Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me The señoritas heart is in love She's wearing white tonight, looks as pure as a dove She's thanking God and all the heavenly stars above Randolph's romance is back again Meanwhile Randolph smiles and says he'll give her ten She doesn't come so he just counts again And he's been there since he does not know when He thinks she's stood him up but in the end The señorita won't keep him waiting Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me Señorita dance cheek to cheek We will dance off into the sky
