One of the best lyricists this country has produced imo, calling out a phoney and listing some great writers along the way.
Keep quoting
Cabaret, Berlin, Burroughs, J.G. Ballard, Duchamp, Beauvoir, Kerouac,
Kierkegaard, Michael Rennie. I don’t believe you really like Frank Sinatra.

Deborah was a Catholic girl
She held out till the bitter end
Carla was a different type
She’s the one who put it in
Mary was a black girl
I was afraid of a girl like that
Suzen painted pictures
Sitting down like a Buddha sat
Reno was a nameless girl
A geographic memory
Cathy was a Jesus freak
She liked that kind of misery
Vicki had a special way
Of turning sex into a song
Kamala, who couldn’t sing,
Kept the beat and kept it strong
Zilla was an archetype
The voodoo queen, the queen of wrath
Joan thought men were second best
To masturbating in a bath
Sherry was a feminist
She really had that gift of gab
Kathleen’s point of view was this
Take whatever you can grab
Seattle was another girl
Who left her mark upon the map
Karen liked to tie me up
And left me hanging by a strap
Jeannie had a nightclub walk
That made grown men feel underage
Mariella, who had a son
Said I must go, but finally stayed
Gloria, the last taboo
Was shattered by her tongue one night
Mimi brought the taboo back
And held it up before the light
Marilyn, who knew no shame
Was never ever satisfied
Julie came and went so fast
She didn’t even say goodbye
Rhonda had a house in Venice
Lived on brown rice and cocaine
Patty had a house in Houston
Shot cough syrup in her veins
Linda thought her life was empty
Filled it up with alcohol
Katherine was much too pretty
She didn’t do that shit at all
Uh-uh, not Kathrine
Pauline thought that love was simple
Turn it on and turn it off
Jean-marie was complicated
Like some French filmmaker’s plot
Gina was the perfect lady
Always had her stockings straight
Jackie was a rich punk rocker
Silver spoon and a paper plate
Sarah was a modern dancer
Lean pristine transparency
Janet wrote bad poetry
In a crazy kind of urgency
Tanya Turkish liked to fuck
While wearing leather biker boots
Brenda’s strange obsession
Was for certain vegetables and fruit
Rowena was an artist’s daughter
The deeper image shook her up
Dee Dee’s mother left her father
Took his money and his truck
Debbie Rae had no such problems
Perfect Norman Rockwell home
Nina, 16, had a baby
Left her parents, lived alone
Bobbi joined a New Wave band
Changed her name to Bobbi Sox
Eloise, who played guitar
Sang songs about whales and cops
Terri didn’t give a shit
Was just a nihilist
Ronnie was much more my style
Cause she wrote songs just like this
Jezebel went forty days
Drinking nothing but Perrier
Dinah drove her Chevrolet
Into the San Francisco Bay
Judy came from Ohio
She’s a Scientologist
Amaranta, here’s a kiss
I chose you to end this list

John Lennon - Gimme Some Truth
I’m sick and tired of hearing things
From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
Ive had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of soap
Money for dope
Money for rope
I’m sick to death of seeing things
From tight-lipped, condescending, mamas little chauvinists
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth now
I’ve had enough of watching scenes
Of schizophrenic, ego-centric, paranoiac, prima-donnas
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of soap
Its money for dope
Money for rope
Ah, I’m sick and tired of hearing things
From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
Ive had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

Seven ways I’m going to move your soul
Seven ways we’re going to lose control
Seven ways and we’ll give no slack
Seven ways to make you jack
Number 1
Visually touch the body in front of you
Caress it with your eyes
Drink it in slowly
Number 2
Close your eyes
Remember the body you’ve just seen
Then slowly undress it
Number 3
Reach out, and without touching
Show what you want to do to the body in front of you
Seven ways I’m going to move your soul
Seven ways we’re going to lose control
Seven ways and we’ll give no slack
Seven ways to make you jack
Seven ways I’m going to move your soul
Seven ways we’re going to lose control
Seven ways and we’ll give no slack
Seven ways to make you jack
Number 4
Put your right hand upon the shoulder of the body in front of you
Number 5
Rhythmically move your body to the beat
Number 6
Physically touch the body in front of you
In every way imaginable
Number 7
Lose complete mental control
And begin to jack
Seven ways I’m going to move your soul
Seven ways we’re going to lose control
Seven ways and we’ll give no slack
Seven ways to make you jack

It’s only a list of three but the tune and video are great.
It’s you, only you
It’s you, only you
It’s you, only you
You are an important person, a rare individual
A unique creature
There has never been anyone just like you
And never will be
You have talents and abilities no one else has
In some ways, you’re superior to any other living person
The power to do anything you can imagine is within you
When you discover your real self
By practicing a few simple laws of success
First law of success
Take inventory of your assets
Don’t be modest or critical
Be open and objective
Get a pencil and paper
Write down every good thing about yourself you can think of
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)
Only you (make it habit, make it happen)
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)
Only you (make it habit, make it happen)
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)
Only you (make it habit, make it happen)
Second law of success
Write a description of the person you’d like to be
Describe your personal dress, your home, your automobile
Your desired occupation and income, be honest
Now, go even deeper
Describe the inner person you’d like to be
Let your mind run wild
Assume you can become anything you desire
The fact is, you will become the person you honestly describe
You can’t avoid it
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)
Only you (make it habit, make it happen)
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)
Only you (make it habit, make it happen)
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)
Only you (make it habit, make it happen)
Third law of success
Concentrate on a mental image of the person you’d like to be
Paint a picture in your imagination of who you want to become
Constantly hold this visual in your mind’s eye
See yourself performing and responding like a champion
Feel the confidence and courage that radiate from this type of person
It’s you, only you
It’s you, only you
It’s you, only you
These three laws are powerful and effective in changing lives
They’ll work for you without fail if you’re persistent in applying them
(Make it habit, make it happen)
(Make it habit, make it happen)
(Make it habit, make it happen)
(Make it habit, make it happen)
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)
Only you (make it habit, make it happen)
It’s you (make it habit, make it happen)

I was sitting with Matthew
We were watching TV, I said
Hey Matthew, what do you see?
Do you see the guns? Do you see the bombs?
See those people throwing all of those stones?
Do you see the cars going up in flames?
See their faces, do you know their names?
Hey Matthew, when you’re watching TV
Hey, hey Matthew, what do you see?
Do you see the tension in a rich man’s house?
Do you see the cat? Do you see the mouse?
Do you see the beauty or the big bad beast?
Do you see the famine? Do you see the feast?
In this world of villains do you see the crime?
Is a superhero waiting at the edge of time?
Hey Matthew, when you’re watching TV
I said, hey, hey Matthew, what do you see?
I see Dallas, Dynasty, Terrahawks
He-Man, Tom and Jerry, Dukes of Hazzard
Airwolf, Blue Thunder, Rambo, Road Runner
Daffy Duck, The A-Team, The A-Team, I see the A-Team
I was sitting with Matthew
We were watching TV, I said
Hey Matthew what’ll you be?
Will you walk like a lion in the danger zone?
Will you pass unnoticed in the great unknown?
When you see the press out on a witch hunt
When you see a political publicity stunt
Will you fight for the right? Will you be a man?
Will you step aside? Will you give a damn?
Will you ride that tide with the starry eyed?
Will you give and take?
Will you laugh ‘til you ache?
Will you learn to live?
Will you take? Will you give?
As the bridges burn, will you live and learn?
Will you be numbered with the brave and true?
Well, good luck kid, here’s lookin’ at you
In the future, Matthew, so bright and free
Hey Matthew, what’ll you be?
Hey, hey Matthew, what’ll you be?
I want to be a soldier, street fighter, be a policeman
A captain of a boat, big boat
I want to be a magic man, a cowboy
A train driver, high jump champion
A fireman, a pilot, I want to be your friend
It’s all a game, I hope
Hey Matthew
Hey, hey Matthew
I hope
I hope
I hope
I hope
