Old Friend

Mr. magoo, he took off with Betty
And i'm on the porch carryin' wood
My heart is confetti
I'm having a party, i'm feelin' good

You say you're comin' to crush my skull
To bash in my face and shatter my frown
To mingle my blood in with the ground
All this as the sun was settin' down

Old friend
Tryin' to hunt me down again
Old friend
This is your exit, you're no, no, no friend

Who is this man who's afraid of death?
Who fears it so that death's all he brings?
I suppose he'll wage war 'til nothin' is left
With a mouth full of teeth and nothin' to sing

Well, he put his hands around my neck
And i suppose i let him from natural respect
And he frothed at the mouth, i twinkled my eye
And gave him this vision just before i died

He saw his lines drawn in the sand
Upon a land of beauty and wind
And he in the distance draggin' a flag pole
Across a desert that never will end

Old friend
Tryin' to hunt me down again
Old friend
This is your exit, you're no, no, no friend
