People come and go so quickly here,
What they want is not exactly clear,
Judas kisses falling on a virgin ears,
No one here gets out alive,
And the beast is slouching down rodeo drive.

You think you want to make an airtight deal with money, and minks, and cars, and a happy meal'
Well, the dogs are snapping at your Gucci heels,
And no one here is gonna survive,
And the beast is slouching down Rodeo drive.

He's singing, come-a, come-a, beep, beep, rodeo
Singing, beep, beep,
He's singing, come-a, come-a, beep, beep, rodeo.

Tap dancing down the Avenue of Stars,
Sing for your supper and wind up behind bars,
It don't really matter how rich or poor you are,
The day of reckoning will arrive,
And the beast is slouching down rodeo drive.

He's singing, come-a, come-a, beep, beep, rodeo
Singing, beep, beep,
He's singing, come-a, come-a, beep, beep, rodeo.

We all need God above,
We all need a little time,
We all need money and love,
But when we got all we need, it's never enough,
We're singing.

Promises come and go so quickly here,
Right and wrong are not exactly clear,
Earthquake weather is sneaking up the rear,
The prophets say he will arise,
And the beast is slouching down rodeo drive.

He's doing the monkey,
Here he comes,
He's doing the twist,
Here he comes,
He's dirty and funky,
He goes 'round and 'round, and 'round,
Then he goes like this...
