Mythical Kings and Iguanas Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Tucker 

Cover art for Mythical Kings and Iguanas lyrics by Dory Previn

This song is about the perils of being overly cerebral and losing touch with the "lizard brain" and the sensual nature of life. The "mythical kings" part cracks me up though, because I have a friend who was fascinated for a while with an ancient king, and I like to tease her about it. If only this were "mythical kings and chickens" it would be perfect.
