This track was recorded in studio and the group felt it didn't fit the feel of an album, but it's a good tune. So, it was offered up to soundtracks. It began it's life on the Coneheads movie soundtrack and eventually found its way to an episode of Friends and that show's soundtrack. I always liked the idea/ motif of physical action in a song. Particularly hitting one's head. This is also visited in depth in the Mono Puff (John Flansberg) song: Unsupervised.
IT’S A FREE WORLD BABY
I was hungry when I said
I never got to sleep
You go ahead
You can get whatever you want
There's a feeling in my belly
It's the new tomorrow scene
It's an interesting job
It's the fireworks
I don't need it
(I don't need it)
I hit my head
(He hit his head)
I can't feel anything
You gave too much away
You came to say
It's a free world baby
And you gave too much away hey, hey
Get whatever you want
Give whatever you want
Me, I'm tired of this candy
My teeth ache my head
Boys in bed, girls in bed
All now go to sleep
Sleep, sweet dreams
Wake to a new today tomorrow
I don't need it
(I don't need it)
I hit my head
(He hit his head)
I can't feel anything
You gave too much away
You came to say
It's a free world baby
And you gave too much away
It's a free world baby
Get whatever you want
Give whatever you want
Boys in bed, girls in bed
(Get to get to get, give to give to give, take to take to take, want)
All now go to sleep
(Get to get to get, give to give to give, take to take to take, want)
Sleep, sweet dreams
(Get to get to get, give to give to give, take to take to take, want)
Wake to a new today tomorrow
(Get to get to get, give to give to give, take to take to take, want)
Sleep, sweet dreams
(Get to get to get, give to give to give, take to take to take, want)
Wake to a new today tomorrow
(Get to get to get, give to give to give, take to take to take, want)
I don't need it
(I don't need it)
I hit my head
(He hit his head)
I can't feel anything
You gave too much away
You came to say
It's a free world baby
And you gave too much away
It's a free world baby
It's a free world baby
Boys in bed, girls in bed
All now go to sleep
Sleep, sweet dreams
Wake to a new today tomorrow
Sleep, sweet dreams
Wake to a new today tomorrow
A really cool song to play. For some reason the muted part was really hard to figure out, but in the end was worth it.
