LYRICS
What do you want the most in life?
To live like hired slaves
and have a mother for a wife?
Or maybe in a factory
A solitary life
Or in an office
Somewhere hovering in a cage up in the sky.

What do you want the most in life?
Give me one good answer 
Or give me 25
as long as you know you're alive
Already living out your life
and what you want in life is 
maybe what you got
you think maybe not well
i'll tell you what:
I've got nothing to tell ya.
You're on your own there buddy, 
just like everybody else
including myself.

What do you want the most in life?
Is you what you want enough 
or would you like a piece of mine?
I'll give it to you freely
you don't have to try to steal it
I'd just spend it like a gambler anyway

What do you want the most in life?
to Live out in a desert, have a donkey for a wife?
to Have a hundred children and 
to name each of them Clyde?
What do you want the most in life?
And as the story will go 
Clyde 21 would eventually kill young Clyde 88
And old Clyde's 1 through 20 and clyde's 22 through 87 would all die and go to heaven.
And of course Clyde's 89 through 100 as well 
would all die
and go to hell.

What do you want the most in Clyde?
A manifestation of all the lives you try to guide
All those Clyde's cooped up inside
must seem impossible to hide
but i'll say you're doing pretty well
at seeming cool and satisfied.

What do you want the most in life?
If I offered some of my life, would you maybe take a bite?
what kind of flavor do you like
what kind of mood you in tonight?
a low calorie or ordinary
decaf or caffienated...

How long you plan to be alive?
You got a long way left to go
or is it almost time to die?
you think you really can't decide
you're contemplating suicide
you're smoking cigarettes and
eating all that crap you try to hide
with baggy clothes
and it's coming out your nose
your innards are exposed
like slimy strings of panty hose
all tangled up in a ball
down where the money goes
and the russian river flows

What do you want the most in death?
Peaceful while you sleep
Just a slowness of the breath
Or falling violently, adventurously, leaping off a cliff?
Or quickly shot?
or slowly withering in hospital bed?

What is it that you never said?
Do you have any regrets, or are you perfectly content?
Did you have everything you wanted?
Or did you just end up feeling spent?
I wish I could tell you where it went
But still I haven't found mine yet
Maybe should just take what I could get.

What do you want the most in life?
