My Depression
Born in the southern land
Where a man is a man
Don't remember too much
Warm momma
Cold touch
Post-war baby boom
Fifty kids in one room
All white

But living in a womb
Got a TV receiver
Jerry Mathers is the Beaver
No blacks
No queers
No sex
Mouseketeers
Daddy kept moving round
I can't settle down
Always.
The lost new kid in town
Manlicher lock and loaded
JFK's head exploded
Dark figure
At the fence
End of my innocence
Hormones hit me
Chew up
Spit me
Get stoned
Get plastered
Always was a moody bastard
Guitar fool
Kicked out of high school
Joined a band
Vietnam
Momma said "kill the man"
Daddy gets real sick
Too intense I can't kick it
Buy myself a ticket to the U.S.A.
Oh my god
It's my life
What am I doing kicking up the foundations
That's right
My life
Better start looking at my destination
Hollywood sex rat
Been there done that
Jaded afraid I'd
Never get it a turn at bat
Last in a long line
