Now Washington, D.C. S'a funny little town The further you look into it The further things stick out You oughta be ashamed You oughta be destroyed I'll chop you into little bits And feed you to my dog(s) Well well well well well What have we got here? What have we got now? Hey hey hey hey hey Twistin' in the wind Twistin' all night long So can you picture this? A taste of what will be The weatherman is wrong again It looks like rain to me I heard the whistle blow The train has jumped the track The mighty engine's outa gas Bureaucratic heart attack My sister likes the boys They kinda like her, too My mama says "Be careful" Sister says, "No, that ain't cool" My daddy fell in love Down at the factory And me, I like to sit around Get high, and watch T.V. Well well well well well What have we got here? What have we got now? Hey hey hey hey hey Twistin' in the wind Twistin' all night long Now I can take a joke I'm laughin' at myself I faked my way through college I faked my way through sex I been falling down too long I been bangin' up my head And if I could stay on my feet I'd probably go right back again Now Harry's got a gun And he just turned fourteen He dresses like a gangster But he's livin' on the street They kicked him in the balls And shaved off all his hair They put a current through his head And left him lyin' there Well well well well well What have we got here? Hey hey hey hey hey Twistin' in the wind Twistin' all night long They say that crime don't pay The judge does not agree 'Cause if you got the money He will surely set you free I'll watch you burn in hell I'll see you in your grave I'd like to watch you suffer for The evil that you made High dee Hi-dee ho What a funny clown The fat man he fell off the wall And can't get up again It's time to say goodbye It's time to say goodnight Who ever is the last one out Well please turn out the light
