the jeffrey lewis & peter stampfel band – duke of the beatniks lyrics
intro:
“we don’t want john or dean or harry. let’s do that big job right
let’s get in step with the guy that’s hep. get in step with ike
you like ike, i like ike, everybody likes ike for president”
[verse 1]
i taught allen ginsberg how to write a poem
i was on the road when kerouac lived at home
i ride faster and harder than cassady can
and like popeye i live in a garbage can
[chorus]
duke, duke, duke of the beatniks
duke of the beatniks yeah
[verse 2]
i dig diz and bird and monk
i dig wine and weed and junk
got an organ box, a blue guitar
but not a beret cos i’m not a cliché, yeah yeah
[chorus]
duke, duke, duke of the beatniks
duke of the beatniks yeah
[verse 3]
i don’t like ike or watch tv
i ain’t no godd+mn bourgeoisie
i ain’t no chump, i ain’t no fool
i’m the total essence of solid cool
[chorus]
d+o+o+k, dook of the beatniks
dook of the beatniks yeah
[verse 4]
i love to slip, i love to slide
from north beach to the lower east side
i live for kicks, i live for fun
i fought the 50’s and i won
[chorus]
d+o+o+k, dook of the beatniks
dook of the beatniks yeah
outro:
“now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.”
