Oh My Poor Boy

from Club Palm Tapes (Vol. 2) by Dre Perish

/

lyrics

will you hound like the dogs who go hide in the back
so will you keep calling police to beat my bones
will you be naming the names that keep ringing
and will you still hear me if I'm just a ghost
somehow I've managed to get out of the coffin
and into the old picture shows

will you keep barking like the beast of all burdens
taking yr time to release me from evil
somehow I've waited much longer than usual
just to get something I need

like a child who can't feel
like a boy who can't kneel
like a saint with no halo to bring heaven down
how long can he stand
can he see, can he be
like a sheep without skin
or the tears of a clown

like they say

oh my poor boy, you've been waiting so long
oh my poor boy, you've been waiting so long
oh my poor boy, you've been waiting so long

waiting so long to get high
