goin out to the barnacle - the whaletails lyrics
(one, two, three, four)
mama always said to me that “fish don’t ever get thirsty”
and country boys don’t ever dream of the city
i said “i can’t live off the land, i’m gonna run away and join a band”
so i packed my bags for the nearest submarine
but rock ‘n’ roll don’t pay the bills
and the pollution fills my country gills
and i don’t think i can take another day
but she was right and i was wrong
the city’s not where i belong
so i’m going back to the barnacle today
i hate the sharks in business suits
and crab*infested prostitutes
the neon lights burn my country eyes
my apartment smells like whales and sperm
and empty tubes of maxoderm
my roommate shoots up heroin all the time
the clam parties have lost their charm
i miss that god d*mn seaweed farm
and i don’t think i can take another day
i’m going where the waters clear
and lobsters live without a care
i’m going back to the barnacle today
i can’t stand [?] and
s*x and drugs, and the homeless folks
my spirits sink, but the buildings still grow taller
back home i got myself a girl
a little clam by the name of pearl
she promised me our love won’t ever falter
my heart and soul, it tried to steal
i’ve gotta get back to something real
and i’m not gonna take another day
i’m leaving soon don’t try to follow
love me now, i’m gone tomorrow
so i’m going back to the barnacle
the rusty, crusty barnacle
yeah, i’m going back to the barnacle to stay
