Spirit Trail lyrics

Pete took up Latin dancing

Sherry loved his style

We loved to laugh as they glided past

But he kicked the blues for a while

Mannby wanted to be artsy

Always dressed in black

Our spirits rose as he struck the pose

But he found peace in the wonderful pose

Hey oh hey now, there you go

Round and round and round it goes

Where it stops no-one knows

Hey oh there you go

Spent the night over at a friend's place

Sunday morning came, he was in my face

Said I want to take you to a place

Put you in a state of grace

Drove way out to a cinderblock house
I walked in like a Thomas in doubt

Saw a man in a reptile suit

With a rattling sound

Whoa no, whoa no

I can't get with this here I know

Never seen nothing like this before

I'm on a long sojourn

I'm sitting here shedding my skin

Don't know about inside, ugly on the outside

They're all messing with me for the shape I'm in

I'm looking for a clean slate
Just need to find a new mind state

Hey, let's go looking for squirrels

Let's find something to do

I think she's shooting it right at you

Look down I said right at you

And the hail falls hard

I think maybe I knew her in school

In my memory's faded view

I remember years ago, her name I barely knew

Years later I saw her in town

Knocking on my window talking loud
She said baby do you need a date

Or just a little foolin' around

Way down where the red light's low

Slinkin' down where the bad seeds grow

Crawlin' where the sun don't show

'Neath the sad moon
