As close as I can get...from the Houston show last night! (updated)
He talked about how he needed to update these for this tour. granted this is the Houston version, but here it is...
Fruitcakes in the kitchen
Fruitcakes on the street
Struttin' naked through the cross walk
In the middle of the week
Half baked cookies in the oven
Half baked people on my bus
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us
Paradise - Lost and found
Paradise - take a look around
Now down there in San Angelo
I hear they have it all
They got polygamist and rattlesnakes
With lots of room to crawl
Now over there in Galveston
They surf on tanker waves
And Dr. Phil is all f***ed up
Just like you and me these days
Fruitcakes in the kitchen
Fruitcakes on the street
Struttin' naked through the cross walk
In the middle of the week
Half baked cookies in the oven
Half baked people on my bus
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us
Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas
Now up there on the space station
The shuttle is in tow
That place is full of Texans,
They’re a rowdy bunch you know
So here’s to all you astronauts
Who made that crazy flight
It’s good to have you back on earth
And be fruitcakes tonight
Fruitcakes in the galaxy
Fruitcakes on the Earth
Strut naked towards eternity
We've been that way since birth
Half baked cookies in the oven
Half baked people on that ship
Forget about that fruitcake for a minute
Here it’s salt and chips
Religion
Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa
Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa
Where’s the church, where’s the steeple
Religion's in the hands of some crazy ass people
Television preachers with bad hair and dimples
The God's honest truth is it's not that simple
It's the Buddhist in you, it's the pagan in me
It's the Muslim in her, she's Catholic ain't she?
It's that born again look, it's the wasp and the Jew
Tell me what's goin on, I ain't got a clue
Here come the big ones - Relationships -
She said you've got to do your fair share
Now cough up half the rent
I treat my body like a temple
You treat yours like a tent
But the right word at the right time
May get me a little hug
That's the difference between lightning
And a harmless lightening bug
Fruitcakes in the kitchen
Fruitcakes on the street
Struttin' naked through the cross walk
In the middle of the week
Half baked cookies in the oven
Half baked people on the lawn
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us
The future – What will it bring
We're eight years past the millennium
That's a science fiction fact
Stanley Kubrick and his buddy Hal
Hey, they aint coming back
So I'll put on my Bob Marley tape
And practice what I preach
Get Ja lost in the reggae mon
As I walk along the beach
Stay in touch with my insanity
There really is no only way
It's a jungle out there Texas
Have a very fruitful day
Fruitcakes in the kitchen
Fruitcakes on the street
Struttin' naked through the cross walk
In the middle of the week
Half baked cookies in the oven
Half baked people on the bus
There's a little bit of fruitcake left down in Port Aransas
