Now if I may indulge in a bit of personal history, a few years ago I worked for a while at the los alamos scientific laboratory in new mexico. I had a job there as a spy. no, I guess you know th
E staff out there at that time was composed almost exclusively of spies... of one persuasion or another. and, while I was out there, I came to realize how much the wild west had changed since th
D old days of wyatt earp and home on the range, and here then is a modern cowboy ballad commemorating that delightful metamorphosis called the wild west is where I wanna be.
Along the trail youll find me lopin
Where the spaces are wide open,
In the land of the old a.e.c. (yea-hah!)
Where the scenerys attractive,
And the air is radioactive,
Oh, the wild west is where I wanna be.
Mid the sagebrush and the cactus,
Ill watch the fellas practice
Droppin bombs through the clean desert breeze.
Ill have on my sombrero,
And of course Ill wear a pair o
Levis over my lead b.v.d.s.
Ah will leave the citys rush,
Leave the fancy and the plush,
Leave the snow and leave the slush
And the crowds.
Ah will seek the deserts hush,
Where the scenery is lush,
How I long to see the mush-
Room clouds.
mid the yuccas and the thistles
Ill watch the guided missiles,
While the old f.b.i. watches me. (yea-hah!)
Yes, Ill soon make my appearance
(soon as I can get my clearance),
cause the wild west is where I wanna be.
Tom Lehrer (Thomas Andrew Lehrer) was an American singer-songwriter, comedian, pianist, and mathematician born in New York City in 1920. Known for his humorous, often satirical songs with witty lyrics, he rose to prominence in the 1950s and 1960s. His songs, characterized by a fast tempo and catchy melodies, tackled controversial topics such as war, politics, and religion, always with a touch of irony and sarcasm. Among his most famous tracks are "The Elements", "Werner Herzog's Last Movie" and "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park". Lehrer released several albums, including "Tom Lehrer Sings" (1959) and "An Evening Wasted with Tom Lehrer" (1965). Besides music, Lehrer dedicated himself to teaching mathematics at Harvard University. His musical career ended in the 1970s, but his songs continue to be appreciated for their intelligence and biting humor.
