Beautiful Night



Lyrics

[Freudian psychologist]
You have three minutes in which to tell me a dream
Any dream
Some one you had last night, if you can remember it
OR any dream you can remember
Go ahead, try not to censor, just let it out
Begin please..

[patient]
I got a little uh..

[singers: The Therapists]
Just a beautiful night..

[patient]
It's not like a dream, it's a confession y'know?
I kinda wild out last night y'know?

[Freudian psychologist]
Mmm-hmm

[patient]
To some shit..
Real ill shit..

[singers: The Therapists]
It's just a beautiful night..

[patient]
Let me tell you about it.. (mm-hmm)
Took this girl out to the movies you know
Dinner, the whole shit, you know
We had the lovely time, y'know..
Took her back to the crib, y'know
I spent a lot of money on her
I-I-I passed off, so I felt like she should pass off (mm-hmm)
Y'know? But she didn't.. so I took it!

[Freudian psychologist]
Mmm! Yah yah

[patient]
Yeah I raped her y'know
I mean you know I know it was fucked up
but uhh I ahhhhhhhhh... I felt bad so I left
y'know I went out, went to the store
to get me a little somethin to drink y'know (mm-hmm)
Went to this, went to this bar
Ordered some Amaretto, y'know, bottle of Amaretto you know

[Freudian psychologist]
Mmmmm, yeah..

[patient]
This whitey bartender said uhh, he don't serve no niggers y'know?

[Freudian psychologist]

Draggin him by his collar
Pullin him over the muh'fuckin counter
Dragged him outside and I KILLED this motherfucker (mm-hmm)

[Freudian psychologist]

of the symbolism of this dream unless we want this record
thoroughly banned but let me tell you it's pretty dirty!
