Space-age couple
Why don' t you flex your magic muscle?
Space-age couple
Why do you hex your magic muscle?
Space-age couple
Why do you hustle ' n bustle?
Why don' t you drop your cool tom-foolery
' N shed your nasty jewelry?
Cultivate the grounds
They' re the only ones around.
Space-age couple
Why don' t you flex your magic muscle?
Hold a drinking glass up t' your eye after you' ve
Scooped up a little of the sky
' N it ain' t blue no more.
What' s on the leaves ain' t dew no more.
Space-age couple
Why don' t you jus' do that?
Why don' t you jus' do that?

    A critique of counterculture or the Age of Aquarius nonsense maybe, clearly this whole "Decals" album has an environmental theme running through it love the line " ...cultivate the grounds, only one around " its a sort of Beefheart rap against consumerist crap.
