Flaming Lips The Tale Of The Horny Frog
Well this frog was hoppin on down the road
He was thinkin about courtin, he had his hopes dashed
too?
He got squished by a car, but just his one leg
He thought "For makin tadpoles just one leg oughta do"
He thought "Hmm, I've been heart broke before, left a
hole you drive a truck through"
He hopped on down the road, a little bit further
towards the truth.
Now this one legged frog was just carryin on
He was thinkin about courtin so he revised? a sense of
duty
He ran into a dog that hadn't eaten for days
And that dog bit his eye, but he missed with the bigger
tooth
He said "I can see more clearly now. Desire has a way
of gettin you through.
Oh I know how you loved me back then, now it's hard to
face the truth."
Now this one-eyed, one-legged, determined ol' frog
He was thinkin about courtin, he jumped up on a log
Well that log was infested by some pissed off bees
And they stung their stingers wherever they could get
them to
"Because I love you, what kind of hell do I put myself
through"
He hopped on down the road, there is no pain this way
to the truth.
And by the time he got to his amphibian mate
He was so scared of pain, he thought she'd just have to
wait.
But she was a demanding old toad, and havin' none of
that
He saw in her eyes, "The truth is here at last."
"What kind of urge could take this lilly pad to the
moon?
The grand old urge, but how eyes and legs can I lose?
Pleasures so painful, it seems the joy is in the
pursuit."
He hopped on down the road, knowin' he finally found
some truth.
