Bird-in-the-Helmet-Man - Mike Watt

The hankerin' for other skin

Is trippy for middle man

Ripe for them pretendin'

They were more younger again

Bird-in-the-helmet-man

Armored tail in the sand

Arrow planted in the rump

Talon-toed for scratchin'

Stuff danglin' from the helmet’s hook

By the bone a sawed-off foot

Panderin' to work the shill procurin'

Ink for the quill

Now here’s the deal, here’s the seal

Here’s exactly where to kneel

The thought that got bought

Was fraught reality much too real
