Debbie

So I shook hands with you freely

made a promise not to clean the slate

and I didn't need you 'til melody

drew a line between love and hate

and I know I can be self righteous

and we both like to stretch the truth

but there's never been a song or a melody

that reminds me less of youth

hey there hey there

debbie down debbie down

And I felt my head exploding

so I left it beside the road

in the tall grass where

all the deer despair

at the thought of being stuffed in my home

and first we were antisocial

til we tried hibernating through

all the seasons where you dye your hair

in a failed attempt on blue

Said the fibber to the snake

there's an opportunist dude

watch his mouth its open wide

and he trying not to eat you

hey there hey there

debbie down debbie down
