Serve Yourself (Home Recording) Lyrics

[Intro]
Well
I've got a story to tell

[Verse 1]
You say you found Jesus
He's the only one
You say you've found Buddha
Sittin' in the sun
You say you found Mohammed
Bowin' to the East
You say you found Krishna
Dancin' in the street
Well, it's too much cockamamie, too much cock-a-doodle-doo
You know there's somethin' missin' in this godalmighty stew
And it's your mother
Don't forget your mother, boy

[Chorus]
You got to serve yourself
Ain't nobody gonna do for you
You got to serve yourself
Ain't nobody gonna do for you
Well, you may believe in devils and you may believe in laws
But you know you're gonna have to serve yourself, honey
Ain't no room service here

[Verse 2]
You say you came from monkeys
Or something weird like that
You say the Garden of Eden
Is really where it's at
You say we came from spaceships
Made of matter and gas
You say we came from nowhere
And this, too, will pass
Well, wherever we all came from, we sure as hell are here
And who the hell you cry for when the bogeyman is near?
And it's your mother
Too much monkey business 'round here, honey
Don't forget your mama

[Chorus 3]
Got to serve yourself
Ain't nobody gonna do for you
You got to serve yourself
Ain't nobody gonna do for you
Well, you may believe in Mickey Mouse or even Donald Duck
But who the hell you turn to when you really need a—
That's right, honey, it's your mother
You can't do it by yourself
You'll go blind doin' that

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus 3]
Serve yourself
Ain't nobody gonna do for you
You got to serve yourself
Ain't nobody gonna do for you
Well, you may believe in devils and you may believe in laws
But you know you're gonna have to serve yourself, honey
Ain't no room service here

[Verse 3]
You know that two is company
And three is a family
You need the tree of knowledge
Or Holy Trinity
You can't have one without the other
Sure as night follows day
That's the law of nature
Can't be had any other way
Well, you may believe in devils and you may believe in laws
But God, you're gonna have to serve yourself, honey
It's not nice to fool with Mother Nature

[Outro]
Too loud
