Kids
I used to wanna be superman
Before Gareth died in 1999
Gus
I never heard him barking
But he roared
When they came knocking
He terrified
He electrified my veins
Kids
We spent our weekends fishing
Lasting time in the old town rec
Still I can hear him talking
And I often think I see him out in town
He terrified
He electrified my veins
Forgotten concrete charm
Mechanical disarm
Turn bellies into mold
But we're all getting old
He's hanging in the hall
Watching us all
