Lyrics:

(Steve Miller)


Kow Kow Calqulator

Was a very smooth operator

Had himself a pet alligator

Kept it in a chrome elevator, yeah



When the sun began to shine

The alligator come outside

Kow Kow played the chimes

Together they would go for a ride



As they travelled with a heavy load

They came across a dead horse at the side of the road

With two generals standing at each end

Fighting over whose fault it had been



And all that's left was this war

And they couldn't get things back together like they were before



Well, listen

Turn on your love light

Turn it on, let it shine

Inside your heart

Let it shine, turn it on

Your love light

Turn it on

Turn it on

Let it shine

Inside your mind



So many times Kow Kow had heard it said before

Oh, don't, Lord, don't go near that door

The cause of our evil you'll uncover

Because of our misery you discover

Well, misery seeks its own company

Kow Kow had heard it said



Now he sits there crying

Oh, with his hands across his head

Kow Kow Calqulator

Oh, a very smooth operator



Get back in your elevator

Kow Kow Calqulator

Turn on your love light

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

Let it shine
