Lyrics:
Walkin' back to the burnin' schoolhouse and the kids drinkin' in the park
Late at night and the spirit moves me and I don't mind being afraid
Old man with no clothes leaning on my fence
Tell me where the money goes and the food don't taste the same
I'm gettin' fast at being the last, you know I don't need to waste no time
You can call me once a week, tell me where I been
Phony lady layin' flat on the road and the helicopter going by
And I'm down to the sound of the sky turned brown and I'm loving everything you say
I don't think it's funny when you shaved both of my arms
Lately I been spitting out things that I didn't mean to say
But that's alright now, you don't listen to me anyway
