1994

--spoken:

"you know I was talking to my friend desdemona the other day she

Runs this space station and bake shop down near boomtown. she told

Me that human beings are flawed individuals. the cosmic bakers

Took us out of the oven a little too early. and thats the

Reason were as crazy as we are and I believe it."



"take for example when you go to the movies these days, you know.

They try to sell you this jumbo drink, 8 extra ounces of watered

Down cherry coke for an extra 25 cents. I dont want it.

I dont want that much organziation in my life.

I dont want other people thinking for me.

I want my junior mints. where did the junior mints go in the

Movies. I dont want a 12 lb. nestles crunch for 25 dollars. i

Want junior mints."



"we need more fruitcakes in this world and less bakers!

We need people that care! Im mad as hell! and I dont want to

Take it anymore!"



Chorus:

Fruitcakes in the kitchen (fruitcakes in the kitchen)

Fruitcakes on the street (fruitcakes on the street)

Struttin naked through the crosswalk

In the middle of the week

Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)

Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)

Theres a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us



Paradise, lost and found

Paradise, take a look around

I was out in california where I hear they have it all

They got riots, fires, mud slides

Theyve got sushi in the mall

Water bars, brontasaurs, chinese modern lust

Shake and bake life with the quake

The secrets in the crust



Chorus:

Fruitcakes in the kitchen (fruitcakes in the kitchen)

Fruitcakes on the street (fruitcakes on the street)

Struttin naked through the crosswalk

In the middle of the week

Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)

Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)

Theres a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us



--spoken:

"speakin of fruitcakes, how bout the government?

Your tax dollars at work."



We lost our martian rocket ship

The high paid spokesman said

Looks like that silly rocket ship

Has lost its cone shaped head

We spent 90 jillion dollars trying to get a look at mars

I hear universal laughter ringing out among the stars



Chorus:

Fruitcakes in the galaxy (fruitcakes in the galaxy)

Fuitcakes on the earth (fruitcakes on the earth)

Struttin naked towards eternity

Weve been that way since birth

Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)

Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)

Theres a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us



--spoken:

"religion! religion! oh, theres a thin line between saturday

Night and sunday morning. here we go now.

Alright, alter boys."



Mea culpa mea culpa mea maxima culpa

Mea culpa mea culpa mea maxima culpa



Wheres the church, who took the steeple

Religion is in the hands of some crazy-ass people

Television preachers with bad hair and dimples

The gods honest truth is its not that simple

Its the buddhist in you, its the pagan in me

Its the muslim in him, shes catholic aint she?

Its the born again look its the wasp and the jew

Tell me whats goin on, I aint gotta clue



--spoken:

"now here comes the big ones. relationships! we all got em, we

All want em. what do we do with em?

Here we go, Ill tell ya."



She said you gotta do your fair share

Now cough up half the rent

I treat my body like a temple

You treat yours like a tent

But the right word at the right time

May get me a little hug

Thats the difference between lightning

And a harmless lightnin bug



Chorus:

Fruitcakes in the kitchen (fruitcakes in the kitchen)

Fruitcakes on the street (fruitcakes on the street)

Struttin naked through the crosswalk

In the middle of the week

Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)

Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)

Theres a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us



--spoken:

"the future. captains log, stardate two thousand and something."



Were seven years from the millenium

Thats a science fiction fact

Stanley kubrick and his buddy hal

Now dont look that abstract

So Ill put on my bob marley tape

And practice what I preach

Get jah lost in the reggae mon

As I walk along the beach

Stay in touch with my insanity really is the only way

Its a jungle out there kiddies

Have a very fruitful day

Hey.



Chorus:

Fruitcakes in the kitchen (fruitcakes in the kitchen)

Fruitcakes on the street (fruitcakes on the street)

Struttin naked through the crosswalk

In the middle of the week

Half-baked cookies in the oven (cookies in the oven)

Half-baked people on the bus (people on the bus)

Theres a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us



--spoken:

"thats right, you too. yeah those crumbs are spread all around

This universe. Ive seen fruitcakes. I saw this guy in santa

Monica rollerskate naked through the crosswalk. down in new

Orleans in the french market there are fruitcakes like you cannot

Believe. new york, forget it. fruitcake city. down island, weve got

Fruitcakes. spread them crumbs around. thats right, we want

em around. keep bakin baby. keep bakin."
