That Opposum

from Whoknowseph? by Mama Would Be Proud

/

lyrics

I can see it in your eyes and you saw that opossum
he was limping down the street looking slim and awesome
he was showing off his teeth like a patch of blue bonnets
the feeling's pretty weak but the feeling was honest
I think about it while I sleep I still get nauseous
Dream about a different day when I was the cautious one
Shuffle 'round I lean against a wall in August.
Shuffle 'round I lean against a wall in Autumn
"How'd they get so different than how we taught em?"
Something about my inner peace was awful rotten
And I know you've seen it in my cheeks I saw that opossum
he was limping down the street looking slim and awesome
he was showing off his teeth like a patch of blue bonnets
the feeling was weak but the feeling was honest
the way ain't very clean, but the way is pretty honest

It's the way you find
he's gone out of his mind
yeah he's way too fine
he's gone out of his mind
way too fine, he's gone out of his mind

I'll probably never bet a nickel on anything at all
