Too young to drink and too smart to think
|
Attaches on his head with the missing link
|
He's skinny as a snake and fast as a mink
|
But he ain't for sale unless you add the kitchen sink
|
Look out, here he comes again
|
They say he's dead, he's my three best friends
|
He's so honest that the dishonest dread
|
Meeting the kid with the replaceable head
|
|
When you live on a planet the size of a town
|
You can't get your kicks by getting around
|
Fun's hard to find on such familiar ground
|
So you invent it: the mental it's better than found
|
Look out, here he comes again
|
They say he's dead, he's my three best friends
|
He's so honest that the dishonest dread
|
Meeting the kid with the replaceable head
|
|
He used to beat himself up till he was sick and confused
|
Dead tired and throbbing, half crazy and bruised
|
Till he'd be too worn out to keep being himself
|
Now he can pick them at will from the heads on his shelf
|
Look out, here he comes again
|
They say he's dead, he's my three best friends
|
He's so honest that the dishonest dread
|
Meeting the kid with the replaceable head
|
