miss o'dell

i'm the only one down here

who's got nothing to say

about the war

or the rice

that keeps going astray on its way to bombay. that smog that keeps polluting up our shores

is boring me to tears. why don't you call me

miss o'dell?

i'm the only one down here

who's got nothing to fear

from the waves

or the rice

that keeps rolling on right up to my front porch. the record player's broken on the floor

and ben

he can't restore it. miss o'dell. i can tell you

nothing new

has happened since i last saw you. i'm the only one down here

who's got nothing to say

about the hip

or the dope

or the cat with most hope to fill the fillmore. that pushing

shoving

ringing on my bell

is not for me tonight. why don't you call me

miss o'dell?

why don't you call me

miss o'dell?
