When first I came to Reno |
|
I was kicked at cussed at ego busted |
|
Shaggy dusty maladjusted |
|
Looking for an open door to get in off the street |
|
I wound up being pushed into |
|
A businessman's convention luncheon |
|
Torn and tattered briefcase battered |
|
Got out just before they branded beatnik on my feet |
|
It's a B-movie world and the cast is on vacation on location every day |
|
In Reno Funtown U.S.A. |
|
Escaping down an alley I was |
|
Sickened chicken panic stricken |
|
Turned and seen a sports arena |
|
Ran into a snarling mob of roller derby fans |
|
Reception there was less than warm |
|
With knuckles teeth and hairy arms |
|
I fell into the first motel |
|
And closed the door and hid myself below the TV stand |
|
It's a B-movie world and the cast is on vacation on location every day |
|
In Reno Funtown U.S.A. |
|
The maid came by for room inspection |
|
Throwing trays in my direction |
|
Sanitized for my protection |
|
I jumped out the window, ran into a grocery store |
|
I didn't have a shopping list |
|
They thought I was a communist |
|
Who fluoridated frozen fish |
|
They put me in a chafing dish and rolled me out the door |
|
It's a B-movie world and the cast is on vacation on location every day |
|
In Reno Funtown U.S.A. |
|
I made it just in time to get |
|
A ticket on a super jet |
|
As everyone was making bets |
|
On just how long the plane would fly before it took a dive |
|
Reno has a law forbidding |
|
Bums to look at married women |
|
Tuxes must be worn to swim in |
|
If you're there with shaggy hair you may not leave alive |
|
It's a B-movie world and the cast is on vacation on location every day |
