The Flaming Lips - The Tale of the Horny Frog lyrics

Well this frog was hopping on down the road He was thinking about courting He had his hopes dashed too He got squished by a car, but just his one leg He thought, "For making tadpoles Just one leg ought to do" He thought, "Hm, I've been heart broke before Left a hole you drive a truck through" He hopped on down the road A little bit further towards the truth Now this one legged frog was just carrying on He was thinking about courting So he revised a sense of duty He ran into a dog that hadn't eaten for days And that dog bit his eye But he missed with the bigger tooth He said, "I can see more clearly now Desire has a way of getting you through Oh, I know how you loved me back then Now it's hard to face the truth" Now this one-eyed, one-legged, determined ol' frog He was thinking about courting He jumped up on a log Well, that log was infested By some pissed off bees And they stung their stingers Wherever they could get them to "Because I love you, what kind of hell do I put myself through?" He hopped on down the road There is no pain this way to the truth And by the time he got to his amphibian mate He was so scared of pain He thought she'd just have to wait But she was a demanding old toad and having none of that He saw in her eyes, "The truth is here at last" "What kind of urge could take this lily pad to the moon? The grand old urge, but how eyes and legs can I lose? Pleasures so painful, it seems the joy is in the pursuit" He hopped on down the road Knowing he finally found some truth
