denny zeitlin - what's in it for you? lyrics
[verse 1]
posthumous cowboys alight on a fence
redolent of vicarious recompense
ask for an answer—a gift of nonsense
what’s in it for you?
[verse 2]
pleistocene flyboys—a fright on the cliffs
scanning horizons for interpersonal tiffs
serve reflections for supper to moribund stiffs
what’s in it for you?
[chorus]
what’s in it for you?
what’s in it for me?
to ask the question
is not to see
what’s in it for you?
what’s in it for me?
to ask the question
is not to see
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
nefarious nowboys selling their dreams
wrapping nightmares in parboiled screams
paperback essences sold by the ream
what’s in it for you?
[verse 4]
hilarious showboys eating the stage
victims of a health food age
pause for the prompter’s infantile rage
what’s in it for you?
[chorus]
what’s in it for you?
what’s in it for me?
to ask the question
is not to see
what’s in it for you?
what’s in it for me?
to ask the question
is not to see
