Toot and walk and fly along that road And there’s a house with a great big toad Being in America with that breeze I watch my breath fly in the air Sing a song right through a plastic hose And the people just stop and stare I don’t even know my brain is cold And the rules don’t seem that fair
I never should have bothered you now I never should have bothered you I never should have bothered you now
I will look and I will point my nose In a direction many know Well I’m fading just like a leaf Stumbling blocks to stepping stones The ravens of the valley just want to eat My heart melts and my hands are faint Well it spreads to the people you meet And the toenails on the floor
I never should have bothered you now I never should have bothered you I never should have bothered you now
I don’t know the time, the tempo Falling out from the crowd, from the crowd
Millions of nerve cells in my brain Make connections all day long Still the little tongue gets in the way Saw a thought then reap the act I never should have bothered you now Never should have bothered you
