Record Body Count Lyrics by Rheostatics

Double Live

0

Martin Tielli

Joey pulled himself to his feet
Hauled his body back up the bank
And looked back down there
He said the water was not that deep;
"But I almost drowned there."
You can drown in a bathtub so they say
"Someone in class called me a loser
So I decided to skip the day...

I tried to look casual sneaking round the back
Past the shotput across the track
And to the gate beside the portables
But a red tie and school gray slacks
Doesn't blend in with the grass
As the teacher was changing class

He chased me halfway through the park
Till I ran into the woods;
And I'm very good in the woods

So I was an Indian
Built a fire by the creek
And dried my eyes there."

There's a record body count this year

Joey stepped up on a block of ice
Put a rope around his neck
And fell asleep before he died
