Lyrics Desperately Trying To Be Different - Golden Earring
Lizzy
the
lizard,
met
an
angry
young
snake
With
forked-tongue
grace,
by
the
name
of
Jake
A
yellow
eyed
diamond
back
rattler
In
the
chill-out
room,
of
the
'wildlife
saloon
She
admired
his
skin,
Jake
said
it
was
fake
And
Liz
said:
"who
cares,
it
don't
really
matter
A
question
to
raise,
Why
people
these
days
Like
slaves
to
a
craze
Are
somehow
hell
bent,
Yet
always
content
With
fortune's
spent
On
desperately
tryin'
to
be
different
Willy
the
weasel
said
to
Sammy
the
snitch
Let's
go
to
the
dogs
and
bet
on
that
bitch
The
greyhound
that
runs
like
a
panther
They
made
a
big
score,
went
to
the
hi-fashion
store
They
bought
two
suits
of
shark
skin
furs,
ermine
and
mink
All
decked
out
for
the
next
chapter
Nancy
the
nympho,
yelled
at
Lola
La
Leech
"I
need
a
permanent
wave
with
lots
a
bleach,
I
wanna
look
like
a
cheap
German
dancer"
She
could
pass
for
a
queen,
in
a
second
hand
dream
Inside
the
gloom
of
the
'wildlife
saloon
The
wolf
whistles,
sounded
just
like
laughter
A
question
to
raise,
Why
people
these
days
Like
slaves
to
a
craze
Are
somehow
hell
bent,
Yet
always
content
With
fortune's
spent
On
desperately
tryin'
to
be
different
