Lyrics Bird-in-the-Helmet-Man - Mike Watt

Bird-in-the-Helmet-Man

The hankerin' for other skin
Is trippy for middle man
Ripe for them pretendin'
They were more younger again
Bird-in-the-helmet-man
Armored tail in the sand
Arrow planted in the rump
Talon-toed for scratchin'
Stuff danglin' from the helmet’s hook
By the bone a sawed-off foot
Panderin' to work the shill procurin'
Ink for the quill
Now here’s the deal, here’s the seal
Here’s exactly where to kneel
The thought that got bought
Was fraught reality much too real
