[00:00.800]Spent some time feelin' inferior
[00:06.610]Standin' in front of my mirror
[00:10.250]Combed my hair in a thousand ways
[00:15.720]But I came out lookin' just the same
[00:19.740]Daddy said"Son you better see the world
[00:24.800]I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to leave
[00:28.489]But remember one thing don't lose your head
[00:33.929]To a woman that'll spend your bread"
[00:37.389]So I got out
[00:44.879]Paris was a place you could hide away
[00:50.499]If you thought you didn't fit in
[00:54.259]French police wouldn't give me no peace
[00:59.738]Just claimed I was a nasty person
[01:03.438]Down along the Left Bank minding my own
[01:08.707]Was knocked down by a human stampede
[01:12.507]Got arrested for inciting a peaceful riot
[01:18.017]When all I wanted was a cup of tea
[01:21.447]I was accused
[01:35.897]Down in Rome I wasn't getting enought
[01:42.037]Of the things that keep a young man alive
[01:45.046]My body stunk but I kept my funk at a time
[01:51.225]When I was right out of luckGetting desperate indeed I was
[02:00.065]Looking like a tourist attraction
[02:03.635]Oh my dear I better get out of here
[02:08.845]Before the Vatican don't give no sanction I wasn't running oh no
[02:26.244]And on the Peking ferry I was feeling merry
[02:32.364]Sailing on my way back here
[02:35.754]I fell in love with a slit eyed lady
[02:41.364]By the light of an eastern moon
[02:45.134]Shanghai Lil never used the pill
[02:50.854]She claimed that it just ain't natural
[02:54.514]She took me up on deck and bit my neck
[03:00.274]People I was glad I found her oh yes so glad
[03:16.444]Wait a minute
[03:24.214]Well I firmly believe that I didn't need anyone but me
[03:32.413]I sincerely thought I was so complete
[03:38.553]Look how wrong you can be
[03:41.843]The women I've known I wouldn't let tie my shoe
[03:47.293]They wouldn't give you the time of day
[03:50.803]But the slit eyed lady knocked me off my feet
[03:56.883]God I was glad I found her
[04:00.423]And if there were words I could tell to you
[04:06.183]To help you on the way down the road
[04:09.413]Couldn't quote you no Dickens Shelley or Keats
[04:15.053]'Cause it's all been said before
[04:18.463]Make the best out of the bad just laugh it off
[04:24.463]Didn't have to come here anyway
[04:27.793]So remember every picture tells a story don't it
[04:32.083]Every picture tells a story don't it
[04:35.353]Every picture tells a story don't it
[04:38.713]Every picture tells a story don't it
