Lyrics - I Am The I In Iconoclast by Hightower Tony

Oh yes,
I made this song up
Yeah sure,
I wrote these words
This composition is unlike any that you've ever heard
This is an original hit
And
I am an original star
I know, cos saying it makes it true (right?)
Or does my voice even carry that far?
I wanna meet
Natalie
Merchant
Fix up a date with me &
Helen
Hunt
Get
Winona
Ryder on the phone
I want,
I want,
I want,
I want,
I want,
I want,
I want
So my influences. . . well let's see
Commercial
Jingles&
Gilligan, and
Bullwinkle, and the
Brady
Bunch (of course)and
I got really introspectivewhen
John
Lennon got shot and
Frank
Zappa died & my parents got divorced
Put my name on my hometown sign
Put my name on a candy bar
I belong on an island nation
I'm not a star, man,
I'm a constellation
The
T in
Trouble stands for me
I am the
Bomb in
Bombast
I put the
Evolution in
Revolution
And
I am the
I in
Iconoclast
I am the
I in
Iconoclast
I am the
I in
Iconoclast [
Johnny
Rotten]
No sleep,
I've had no sleep
I haven't slept,
I drank too much,
I haven't slept &
I'm broke
Any way that
I could bum a cup of coffee off of you?
Any way that
I could steal me a smoke
Hey, check out my cool biker boots!
Dig the cool
Brando t-shirt
I tried to roll a pack of smokes in the sleeve
But
I stopped cos it made my arm hurt
The
T in
Trouble stands for me
I am the
Bomb in
Bombast
I put the
Evolution in
Revolution
And
I am the
I in
Iconoclast
I am the
I in
Iconoclast
I am the
I in
Iconoclast [
Zapatista]
I wrote a great hit song (
This is it)
I bought a shiny blue guitar
I learned a cool
Velvet
Underground tune
I wrote the lyrics down somewhere
I'm sure
I wrote the lyrics down
Somewhere(
Big finish)
OF
COURSE
I'
M
SENSITIVE
MAN
I
AM
AN
ARTIST
AND
I
HAVE
THIS
GIFT
THAT
IMUSTSHAREAND
I
MUST
GIVE
AND
GIVE
AND
GIVE
AND
GIVE
AND
GIVE
AND
GIVE
UNTILTHERE'
SNOTHING
THEREFor a wise man once said to me
He said, "
Tony, your life is short on this earth,
And you must squeeze the great unwashed
For all that they are worth."
The
T in
Trouble stands for
Tony
I am the
Bomb in
Bombast
I put the
Evolution in
Revolution
And
I am the
I in
Iconoclast
I am the
I in
Iconoclast
I am the
I in
Iconoclast
