The Flaming Lips - Tale Of The Horny Frog lyrics

Well, this frog was hoppin' on down the road He was thinkin' about courtin', he had his hopes dashed too He got squished by a car but just his one leg He thought, "For makin' tadpoles just one leg oughta do" He thought, "I've been heart broke before Left a hole you could drive a truck through" He hopped on down the road A little bit further towards the truth Now this one legged frog was just carryin' on He was thinkin' about courtin' so [Incomprehensible] a sense of duty He ran into a dog that hadn't eaten for days And that dog bit his eye but he missed with the bigger tooth He said, "I can see more clearly now Desire has a way of gettin' you through Oh, I know how you loved me back then Now it's hard to face the truth" Now this one-eyed, one-legged, determined ol' frog He was thinkin' about courtin', he jumped up on a log Well, that log was infested by some pissed off bees And they stung their stingers wherever they could get them to Because I love you What kind of hell do I put myself through? He hopped on down the road There is no pain this way to the truth And by the time he got to his amphibian mate He was so scared of pain, he thought that she'd just have to wait But she was a demandin' old toad and havin' none of that He saw in her eyes, "The truth is here at last" What kind of urge could take this lily pad to the moon? The grand old urge but how many eyes and legs can I lose? Pleasure's so painful, it seems the joy is in the pursuit He hopped on down the road, knowin' he finally found some truth
