On the cover of the new AJ
by Jim Croce
sung to the tune of "Cover of the Rollin' Stone" by Dr. Hook
I got a freaky old lady named-a Zanshin Katie
Who embroideries on my gis
I got my poor old gray-haired daddy,
Mixing tung oil and linseed.
Now it's all designed to blow our mind
But our mind ain't really been blown
Like the blow that'll get ya when ya get your picture
On the cover of the new AJ
[CHORUS]
New AJ-
Wanna see my picture on the cover, AJ-
Wanna buy five copies for my mother, AJ-
Wanna see my smilin' face
On the cover of the new AJ
On the cover of the new AJ...
Well we're big practitioners
We got golden fingers
And we're loved for every throw we do
We're workin' on beauty and we're workin' on truth
For over 60 hours a kyu.
We take all kind-a spills
To give us all kind-a thrills
But the thrill we've never known
Is the thrill that'll get you
When you get your picture
On the cover of the new AJ
[CHORUS]
And our waza's gettin' better
But we can't get our pictures
On the cover of the new AJ...
