Horseshoe Crabs

Intro: (x4) verse 1 Hey, did you hear me, mom? Baby's headed home Against your wishes, I went into the woods alone Instrumental x2 verse 2 Just look at my face A vegetable, beet red I know you gave me money for the motel But I came here instead I came here instead Instrumental x4 verse 3 What I wanted when I left you Brushed by, so close With the money, I got pretty gone And bloodied some poor actor's nose Instrumental x2 Pre-Chorus One night in the park, the pellet gun Took out an eye, I came undone One college kid came to see me He passed me that nylon string Asked me to play him something So I tried my hand at "Blues Run the Game" I barely made it through it Then he had to go back to his parent's house upstate Upstate Instrumental x4 verse 4 Woke from the dream and I was old Staring at the ass crack of dawn Walked these streets up and down Looking for Paul Simon Instrumental x2 Pre-Chorus All I found was myself, lost in time I tried singing my songs But I lost my mind What have they done with my jealous one? Who is gonna talk trash long after I'm gone? When I was young They used to find me pitching horseshoe crabs Back into the sun Bridge What have they done What have they done With my jealous one? With my jealous one? When I was young They used to find me pitching horseshoe crabs Back into the sun Outro
