Overcoat |
| When I was young I was left to fend for myself |
| A latchkey leaves the door open to almost anyone else |
| I met the brothers out behind Montgomery Mall |
| Launching long florescent tubes against the brick wall |
| Take me there, take me there, take me anywhere |
| Let me be by your side, in revolt |
| Let me wear your overcoat |
| We fluttered through jr. |
| high like a cloud |
| Got grounded in 10th against a chain link fence |
| They were sent away to trade school in Somerset |
| I got left once again to fend for myself |
| Take me there, take me anywhere |
| Let me be by your side, don’t say no |
| Let me wear your overcoat |
| She rose olympic from of the pool |
| The pinking shears in her hands bright like a dagger |
| I stood before her in nothing but my overcoat |
| Held out my sleeves, torn and tattered |
| Take me there, take me anywhere |
| Let me be by your side, don’t say no |
| Just let me keep my overcoat |
