New Boll Weevil Blues

from Elusive Angels by Bill White

/

lyrics

all i did was pixillate my brain
when i tried to slow down the rain
i couldnt even see the mess i was in
until my auditory nerve got caught in a spin
found an island where the girls grew up fast like grapes
put me into a coma never thought of escape
when at last i joined the fish i scraped the ocean for
the longest wave id ever seen knocked me back to the shore

chorus
this is wy im lookin like a new boll weevil
ulysses lookin for a home
this is wy im lookin like a new boll weevil
ulysses lookin for a home
when i tried to slow down the rain
the silence of god was brought on
in a de synchronation of the bain brain

i was looking for the other half of my brain
so i bought a ticket on the gospel train
i wanted to hear the voce of god again
so i threw up my old wine from my old skin
it was a long ride and the train broke down in sodom
the priests were burned alive after we caught em
when we finally made it to the city of gold
i saw my house on the hill had been sold
ow that ive been thrown out with theoru trash
im looking for a couch where i can crash

repeat chorus
now the seas are full of pirates
and bandits rule the roads
the wals around the cities
can be levelled with a code
i stand before 1000 doors
some open, some are closed
when the funeral is over
theres no place to go but home
when i found my house and opened up the door
i started crawling backward on a foreward floor

repeat chorus
