How pleasant to be living in the present A peasant eating crud instead of pheasant Just like this cat and dirty adolescent To feed, that’s all I need I’m fab and fit and fine and firm and able No longer need a baby for a table Come pin me down with any kind of label I’m freed, I’m free That’s all I need, that’s all I need I also need this cup Don’t bother getting up Farewell to fancy friends and party platters I’m happy now and that’s all that matters So take my lead and heed my creed That’s all you need, that’s all you need.
