Got a tail to spin
No one really wins
Plight of a crippled man
Well he just don’t understand
Sleeping all through the day
Now he’s copping down on A
Swinging that way for years
Keeps a lid on all his fears
He’s giving it all way
Yeah he’s crippled for today
He’s going away to home
Yeah he’s crippled all alone
He’s talking about his dreams
Only he knows what it means
I’m finding it hard to read
All the words that point to me
Living a crippled scene
Now he’s got a crippled queen
He’s waiting for Aug to write
A book about his life
Love is all in his eyes
Yeah his mother she will cry
Trying to make a scene
About the bottle he must wean
Trying to keep it tight
Trying to make it right
His mothers gone away
Now the cripple runs to play
Over the bridge he swings
To the circus with three rings
Riding on top of the wave
And digging his early grave
