I went to grab her hand, she went to powder her nose.
I went to grab her hand, she went to hang with the band, and that’s just how that goes.
Who put these drinks in my hand?
Who put these drugs in my nose?
I swear it wasn’t my plan to be the ANIMAL MAN, but that’s just how that goes.
See, I’m a regular guy, and on occasion, “get high.”
But once in a while I get loud, stare at the moon and I howl, in a Lon Chaney disguise.
When did this blood spot my shirt?
When did the ledge get so high?
I understand you’re a fan, I’m not the “Animal Man,” I’m just a regular guy.
“When did I last see you?”
“Halloween.”
“What color were they?”
“Green.”
…
Who put these drinks in my hand?
Who put these drugs in my nose?
I swear it wasn’t my plan to be the ANIMAL MAN, but that’s just how that goes.
She went to hop in a cab, I went to blow up her phone.
Brother, I can’t tell you why she even deigned to reply;
Her two word missive: “Go Home.”
