Lyrics Stephen Malkmus

Stephen Malkmus

Jo Jo's Jacket

(And in a funny way, the shaving of my, uh, head

Has been a liberation from, uh, a lot of stupid vanities, really

Uh, it has simplified everything for me and opened a lot of doors, maybe)

I'm not what you think I am

I'm the king of Siam

I've got a bald head, my name is Yule Brenner, and I am a famous movie star

Perhaps you saw me in "West World"

I acted like a robotic cowboy

It was my best role, I can't deny I feel better deep inside an electronic carcass

You're such monumental slime

Let the punishment fit the crime

We'll tie you to a chair, the house music will blare, and turn your ears into a medicinal jelly

I stayed inside on Christmas day

And made believe that you were my candy cane

You said "I'm not that type, no I'm not sweet, and I do not own the rights to your life"
