Songtexte

He painted his house the color of his skin
So if the situation called for it he could blend in
Or maybe just feel like somebody else's heart when within
When not feeling merry and warm and amused by the gin
Newspapers in piles eating over the sink
Just waking up feels like racing for pinks
And the sky changes color and size each time that he blinks
But he's sure entertained by that quiet unassuming old drink
Oh Bobby, oh Bobby
The meek won't inherit anything
So dismiss this old world and fly to God
Where these northern lights won't erase what you are
Oh Bobby, you ain't as bad as they say
He feared would-be revelers in his grave torment
So he changed his shampoo to throw off his scent
And campaigned to trade for his soul what he traded for rent
But he'd mix up whatever was on hand with what was already spent
Oh Bobby, oh Bobby
The week you were gone I was blue
So forget this old world, don't let it get to you
Forget this old world and become one anew
Oh Bobby, don't mortgage your young life this way
Oh Bobby, oh Bobby
The meek won't inherit anything
So dismiss this cold world and fly to God
And don't lose your cool when they cheer and applaud
Oh Bobby, you ain't as bad as they say
Oh Bobby, you ain't as bad as they say
Oh Bobby, you ain't as bad as they say
