Osama Bin Laden Joins ZZ Top: A Word Salad

"I was hurt real bad at birth. And I was hit by a train when I was three."

If I can get medical and stay down low

And I make it, well I'll go

Somewhere new and wash these clothes

Something certainly turned on me

Dorothy died and on the net

Is one big lie far as I see

But I got no computer yet

I'd been an actor and a star

And sold insurance and new used cars

I worked one and one half day so far

But then something got their hands on me

And beat the crap out of Two Thousand Three

I almost died. Well lucky me

But Francine. Is she okay?

And Francine. Is she still so mean?

Cup of coffee. Can of chew.

A woman to care for you

I am the same age as you

But look like I'm bout 82

I know the value pennies hold

A penny shines near good as gold

But it was poison by the way she acted

Since the '60s I been distracted

Got run over that Halloween

By a car drove from Vegas to Christmas Eve

Needles don't want me near their Lord

You'd think by the way they all were talking

It was me that run over that 4 x 4

And I get a ticket for J-walking

The cops poured me on a bus

As there weren't no hospital near

God fuck Needles and their good church folk

I been living outside these last four years

Used to be a good looking man

Vegas give you a real thick tan

Dig you a 10 foot hole in 10 minutes flat

Then drop them bodies in the sand

Good team of women behind me then

Who all turned whores for heroin

Them bikers real bad bikers yes

Cocaine mountains Ozark's best

Daredevils percodans and glue

And a wealthy grandma too

Want a place where I can crash

Got hit by a train. They paid in cash

Jesus is she still okay?

Christ I knew just what she'd say

Cup of coffee. Can of chew.

And a woman to care for you

I'm 49 same as you

But look more like I'm 82

I live back of the boxing gym

In a trailer hidden by some trees

Here I've rid myself of dreams

You couldn't even hear the screams

A coffee shop smile used to get me some

But coffee shop women don't want me none

Needles nearly took my leg

Been better had they took my head

I just had to tell them no

Then haul ass to New Mexico

Cup of coffee. Can of chew.

A woman to care for you

I am the same age as you

But look like I'm bout 82
