Horseshoe Crabs

Hey did you hear me, Mom?
 Baby's headed home
 Against your wishes I went
 Into the woods alone
 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
 ♪
 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
 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 parents' house upstate
 Upstate
 ♪
 Woke from a dream and I was old
 Staring at the asscrack of dawn
 Walked these streets up and down
 Looking for Paul Simon
 All I found was myself
 Lost in time, I tried
 Singing my song 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
 What have they done (what have they done)
 With my jealous one? (What have they done)
 Who is gonna talk trash (my jealous one?)
 Long after I'm gone? (With my jealous one)
 When I was young (I was young)
 They used to find me pitching horseshoe crabs
 Back into the sun
