Cagey Cretins

Blue Öyster Cult · Secret Treaties [1974]

Ooo cagey-what you got?

What you got there dummy?

What you got there man?



Ooo cagey-what you got?

What you got there honey?

What is it, a worm?



Dumb clouds are raging

Stupid clouds at my door

Creepy weather coming

Coming 'round my floor

Dumb clouds stay away

Don't come back no more



Ooo cagey-what you got?

Got an awful tummy

Oh no, it's inflamed



Ooo cagey-what you got?

It's so lonely, honey

In the state of Maine



Dumb clouds are raging

Stupid clouds at my door

Creepy weather coming

Coming 'round my floor

Well dumb clouds stay away

And don't come back no more



I'm graduating in one more term

Because I haven't any time to burn

Repeating taste of high-heeled shoe

An eel is waiting under the train



Being chased around by the neighbor's cat

Well it's so lonely in the state of Maine



Dumb clouds are ringing

Ringing in my ear

Mother's wombs are crying

Ringing in my fear

Mothers never run

Except when rape is near



Ooo cagey

Ooo cagey

Ooo cagey

Ooo cagey
